About this activity

Visit the Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum, one of the world's largest dinosaur museums. Discover 51 life-size dinosaur skeletons, interactive exhibits, and dinosaurs found in Fukui, including Fukuiraptor and Fukuisaurus.

Travel directly from Kanazawa with no transfers. During the journey, your guide will explain why so many dinosaur fossils have been discovered in this region and introduce the museum highlights and lunch options.

Enjoy approximately 3.5 hours of free time to explore the museum.

As a special gift, receive dinosaur souvenirs such as a pin badge, stickers, or a mini figure.

After the tour, enjoy drop-off at either Kanazawa Station or your hotel in central Kanazawa.

The museum is almost entirely indoors, making it ideal for families, couples, and dinosaur enthusiasts in any weather.

The Fukui Prefectural Dinosaur Museum is one of Hokuriku's must-visit attractions, alongside Kanazawa, Shirakawa-go, and the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route.
