Reviews
The weather was very unstable and rainy before departure, and the staff fully informed us that the wind and waves might be strong while waiting for the boat. They also mentioned that the dolphin watching part of the trip might be affected and that we might not see any dolphins, but they would offer a free ride within one year as compensation. Fortunately, the weather stabilized when we actually set off. The boat ride was a bit bumpy at first, but once we arrived at the spot, we saw many groups of dolphins, which made it all worthwhile! Anyone would be excited to see so many dolphins! Kids would especially go crazy! The ticket exchange process and directions were easy to understand and find, just as described on the website. The staff was very friendly, and we met a staff member who could clearly explain the precautions at each stage in Chinese, which made us feel very reassured. I highly recommend purchasing this tour package, you won't regret it!
This experience was wonderful, we were able to catch dolphins diving and the captain of the boat would drive around until we’d find dolphins. Great for wildlife photography and a new experience!
It's very convenient to scan the QR code directly at the exchange counter. You really can see dolphins on this trip! There were many dolphins, and the captain was very responsible in searching for them.
Definitely worth it! Guaranteed dolphin encounters and picture-perfect moments! The sunset after the tour was stunning! Booking the 3 PM slot was absolutely the right choice.
This is a highly recommended tour! You can see entire groups of dolphins swimming freely up close, and they feel very close to humans, almost within reach. Wild animals should truly thrive in nature.
what a memorable experience. only in fukuoka I can experience watching wild dolphins with a 90% probability of spotting them 😍
We saw so many dolphins, we were incredibly lucky! And the staff were exceptionally enthusiastic! It was a truly unforgettable experience!
A brief explanation is provided onboard. Upon arriving at the viewing location, numerous dolphins surround the boat, allowing ample time for photography. It's an unforgettable experience.
The staff were enthusiastic and friendly. Before boarding, they said conditions were great and we could see around 100 dolphins, but the actual visual experience felt like more than 100!
Extremely satisfied! It's no exaggeration to say this was one of the best experiences of my life. The dolphins sparkled in the sun and danced with us. Absolutely loved it!
