Fantastic 5.0
There's currently a special offer: one adult and one child for $399. The park is quite large, so it's a good idea to plan your visit in advance. If you want to experience close-up interactions, I recommend lining up for experience tickets right when the park opens at 10 AM, or for the second session at 1 PM. The weather in the mountains can be unpredictable, so if it's not a beautiful day, I suggest getting your experience tickets, then heading down to the sloped area to interact with the foxes before coming back up for the small animal feeding experience. This is because if the weather is bad, the foxes will be taken indoors to rest, and you won't be able to see them. You can also interact closely with the capybaras; watching them eat the fodder provided by the park is truly therapeutic. The park also offers exquisite dining options, and you can even enjoy your meal while watching the sloths in the restaurant—it's a real treat! The next stop requires a bit of a walk, and since it's downhill, it's easy, but be careful not to rush. The park's only birds currently are raptors—eagles. This time, we happened to witness an eagle 'bullying' another, haha! After hearing the explanation, it turns out it's because the eagles are from different breeding groups and have territorial instincts, which leads to gliding attacks. It made me worried the staff might get accidentally hurt! Finally, there's the slide, which the kids love most. Make sure to put on the safety gear provided by the park before playing happily. There's also delicious afternoon tea available for purchase nearby, so parents can enjoy snacks and refreshing drinks while watching their children play happily—it's quite nice! We returned with many happy memories. Since the previous section was downhill, the park thoughtfully provides a shuttle bus for the return trip, so your feet won't get tired and sore. Some areas of the park seem to still be under construction, so more animals should be moving in later. I'm really looking forward to it!

Highly recommend this museum for just about anyone. Great price for adults and free for seniors (65+) and elementary school kids. There are six floors of interactive exhibits for all ages AND virtually all of them are also in English. The IMAX film (~17 minutes) was also great! I went on a Tuesday with half of the elementary schools in the city so just a heads up as there were kids everywhere (loud and running around). Eat before or after as not many options and not good. Could easily spend all day there. Water refills stations and bathrooms throughout and exhibits were well done.

I was worried the amusement park would be closed due to the approaching typhoon, but when we came to Suzuka Circuit Park yesterday, the weather was great and there weren't many people, probably because it was a Thursday. Our whole family bought one-day passes, and we got to ride every attraction many times without long waits. It was truly worth the price! I ordered a 1+1 ticket package online through Klook for 980 NTD, and the second set was even more discounted, costing only 900 NTD after an 80 NTD reduction. That saved us a lot compared to buying tickets at the gate!

Simple and convenient to use, ready to use upon booking, and the platform offers great discounts—it is simply perfect! I am so happy to have such a user-friendly platform. It is so straightforward; without having to wait in crowded lines or spend extra time and money, I can enjoy equivalent discounts. I can only say it is truly amazing! Especially when buying tickets, I will definitely check out this platform. So much delicious food and fun things are right here! Fantastic 👍 Convenience of booking with Klook: Simple, convenient, and easy to use.

If you have the money, I highly recommend this experience. If you have two people, it’s much cheaper as well (it was just me though). I’ve done this in Taipei and at EuropaPark theme park in Germany so it was cool to see the history of this this experience originated. Staff are friendly and speak English. Recommend using Klook and must book at least one day in advance (earlier spots are less busy). It’s a little out there location wise but I eventually found it.

I have to give it 5-stars based on value for your money. Seniors (65+) and primary school kids are free, and adults are less than $2! I paid extra for the little zoo tram as it was crazy hot, hundreds of school kids, and the monkeys are no joke! stole a water bottle right out of a boy’s hand in a big school group (ran off with it)! The best part was the water area, like a splash pad. Although older and rundown, it did the job of cooling us off. There’s 3 areas, with rain water coming from above, and two shallow areas maybe 1-4 inches of water. Animals weren’t too active due to heat/sun. Don’t recommend eating here as not many options, nor good quality.

The tour is nice and the guide was giving a lot of information. However, this one should be highlighted that it is in Chinese ONLY. I can understand some part of the introduction but the experience would have been nicer if I know that this is in Chinese only, no English. I would remember to check all the earlier review before booking a tour now.

What to know before visiting Kaohsiung

Quick overview of Kaohsiung and what to expect

Kaohsiung is a coastal city where Klook bookings concentrate on family-friendly experiences: theme parks, events and shows, museums, playgrounds and zoos/aquariums lead the way. Demand rises and falls through the year, so you’ll find both lively high-season weeks and much quieter stretches for sightseeing.

Best time to visit and how prices behave

Klook data shows demand peaks in June while the trough comes in September. Prices follow a similar rhythm overall: Klook’s busiest month aligns with the priciest month (June), and the cheapest month on Klook tends to be October. If you want lower prices and smaller crowds, consider visiting in September or October; if you’re after the peak-season atmosphere and events, aim for June. In general demand and prices move together here, so busier months usually cost more on Klook.

Tips for travellers from the Philippines

Filipino travellers typically book about a week in advance for Kaohsiung activities, so plan and lock in must-do tickets roughly eight days before travel—especially if you’re visiting in June. Many experiences still allow last-minute bookings a day out, which makes short-notice trips doable; use Klook to compare options and secure popular time-slot activities early.
