I'd heard the reviews for Dinosaur Park weren't very good, so I was actually considering skipping it beforehand. Luckily we went! Aside from being a bit hot, Dinosaur Park was so much fun! Before entering, a multilingual team helped us understand the park and helped us choose activities suitable for the kids. We also visited the pineapple garden, rode the ride on the park bus, and listened to nursery rhymes, which the kids enjoyed very much. The DMM Aquarium was especially our kids' favorite, but because we hadn't done our research, we didn't get to feed the otters. We definitely want to go again next time.
The time cooperated very well, the tour guide's explanation was very methodical' gave me a deeper understanding of the history and culture of Okinawa' the beautiful sea tribe is really worth going, today's activities are really worth the money😁😁
It's very convenient; you can just swipe your ticket to enter without exchanging it for a physical ticket or waiting at the counter. Even children and the elderly can easily use it. The ticket price combinations offer great value for money and can be customized to your liking.
The price is cheaper than other platforms, and it's very convenient to use. No physical ticket is needed; simply present your mobile QR code at the entrance gate on the day of your visit. One QR code is required per adult/child. However, if you only plan to see the dolphin show or shop at the stores, you don't need to buy a ticket.
The only downside is that orders cannot be cancelled for free.
Just before the typhoon hit, we took the kids to DMM to redeem tickets and meals for most of the day at Iisa – it was convenient and great value! Adults can also redeem coin purses there; they're super cute! 😍😍
There aren't many people now, and even on a Friday during the summer holidays, the queues aren't ridiculously long. The park is very friendly to foreigners; you can get a free ticket for unlimited rides on the Tam Tam Tram for the day just by queuing at the entrance, and foreigners are even in the first line of entry. Additionally, booking tickets through Klook or KKday includes free VIP lounge access and a free Dinosaur Safari luxury pass, which can make your day much easier.
However, the park's information updates are still not very synchronized. Even though Typhoon Dolphin caused the hot air balloons to be under maintenance, I couldn't see this information on the app, which led me to take a longer route in the morning. Also, despite staying at the Oriental Hotel, which is affiliated with the park, and taking the hotel shuttle bus, I wasn't informed that I could enter the park 15 minutes early, which was a pity. Furthermore, the numbered tickets couldn't be used to select all seven people in my group at once, which was very inconvenient. Only half of the people were selected, leaving the others unsure of where to go; and the time slots for the selected tickets were inconvenient, causing me to wander around the park repeatedly.
However, you can feel the effort the place puts into treating foreign tourists well; the staff are very welcoming, and the facilities are quite interesting (dinosaur safari, SKY PHOENIX, laser guns, etc.). I hope Junglia's business will improve in the future, and that it will often stay open until evening to set off fireworks.
Excellent value for money! Given the long drive, it's a worthwhile day trip for travelers without a car. Our guide, Ishikawa, explained everything in detail on the bus (although I accidentally fell asleep a bit 😂). She also carefully reminded passengers getting off at American Village of the return transportation details. Thank you, Ishikawa! Kouri Island's beaches are gorgeous; it would have been even better if we had stayed longer. Highly recommended!
This was a fantastic family trip experience! The overall rating is truly high, especially for our driver. His service was superb – friendly, patient, and his driving skills were excellent, ensuring the comfort and safety of our elders and children throughout the journey. His professional and thoughtful service greatly enhanced the trip, allowing our whole family to relax and enjoy a warm and memorable time together. This car rental/tour service is impeccable in quality and offers exceptional value for money; highly recommended for anyone planning a family trip!
