Applicable to a group of maximum 38 persons only:
If you charter us on Wednesday or Friday and board our boat at 1pm at Tung Chung Pier for a half day dolphin watching tour, you can enjoy a special rate of $4,000 per trip.

Optional Extras:
Air-conditioning: can be provided on 38 pax and 58 pax boats with an additional charge of $500. 100 and 150 boats are non air-conditioned.
Round trip bus (air-conditioned): to Tung Chung costs $1100 for 24/29 seats, $1400 for 50 seats, $1500 for 56/60 seats.
Lunch: can be arranged at a restaurant in Tai O or an on-board buffet. (please call us for menu and more information.)

Trip Duration:
We generally need at least 3 hours from Tung Chung or Tuen Mun to ensure a good sighting, but any more time will increase your chances. We can also leave from Tsuen Wan public pier, in which case we would need at least 5 hours on the water, or Queen's Pier/TST Pier for at least 7 hours. For lunch in Tai O, you should factor in at least another two hours.

Reservation and payment
Please fill in the application form ¡]please click to download¡^ and return to us by fax or by e-mail. We need a 50% deposit for reservation, and the other 50% at least two week before the trip.

Payment can be made through our bank account in Hong Kong Bank no. 144-297561-001, or you can send a cheque payable to Hong Kong Dolphinwatch Ltd. to our office: 1528A, Star House, TST, Kowloon.

Cancellations
We cancel the trip if there is typhoon signal 3 of higher, or black thunderstorm warning, otherwise we go ahead. If you want to cancel, you have to notify us at least 1 week before the trip and there will be a cancellation charge of 20% of the total amount. The trip cannot be cancelled for any notice shorter than that. If you still wish to cancel, a full charge will have to be collected.

Note:
We have seen dolphins on more than 97% of our trips. If no dolphins are seen, we will consider running another trip at a discounted price for the same group. Our go-again guarantee is not applicable to the charter dolphinwatch.

Personal Accident Insurance is included, covering for travelers who join for a one day tour within Hong Kong. Maximum benefits per person is HK$100,000.
