Although the success rate of seeing dolphins are pretty high, there might still be a chance you don't see them. So you pray hard. We saw some but they were pretty fast and couldn't get good shots of them. Videos were what I've got of them. it was exciting cos by the time someone sees one in one direction, we had to scour the other areas as they might pop up soon. Didn't see them jump up high though. They were just swimming by. The travel distance to the areas where we can see them is pretty far. The guide was pretty good as well.

The place is not very big, but it is a good experience and you can take photos freely. The chocolate making process in the workshop is a bit simple, which is relatively suitable for activities with children, and the works can also be taken away.

Our most underrated experience in the Ngong Ping Village! We were so amazed by the different chocolate products in the museum and our guide for the chocolate tasting was very kind. We learned a lot about the different kinds of chocolate. You shouldn't miss this when you go to the Ngong Ping Village 🫶🏼
