Things to do in Hyogo

Many thanks to team leader Xiaohua! This was my first time on this tour, and I truly felt the dedication of both the leader and the travel agency. It was incredibly thoughtful and offered amazing value for money! I highly recommend it, especially for travelers who enjoy independent exploration but prefer not to drive. The tour covers three scenic locations without any forced sales pitches. Walking across the Iya Vine Bridge felt like a reminder to slow down, and the nearby waterfall was a truly refreshing experience. The grilled sweetfish and grilled mochi that the team leader privately recommended were also definitely worth trying—I personally thought they were delicious! The boat ride at Oboke Gorge was very comfortable; the boat was stable, and admiring the beauty of the canyon helped me escape the hustle and bustle and clear my mind. For the final attraction, the timing for the Naruto Whirlpools was perfect. Of course, I paid extra to witness the beauty of one of the world's three great whirlpools. The boat ride was very safe, and it brought a beautiful end to this trip (I recommend checking the tide times for the Naruto Whirlpools online beforehand). Thanks again to the team leader and driver! I will definitely join again next time!

Nick was a fantastic guide, friendly, knwliedgable and attentive. he totally made the day trip to Hemji Castle and Arima onsen a fun and enjoyable one. Kudos to Nick San 🫶🏽The tour itself was well organised. the bus was comfy and the driver was professional and drove very safely. we spent the morning and lunch at the castle which was just perfect. and the onsen was also lovely. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🫰🏽

Booking the Basic Light Ticket through Klook was seamless, as was park entry with mobile tickets. This ticket grants access to two Shinobi challenges (Heaven and Earth Scrolls). You actively move through the park, encounter familiar characters, and can truly immerse yourself in the world of Naruto by solving tasks and performing hand signs. Additionally, the climbing labyrinth offers real ninja action for all ages. You should plan about 40 minutes per scroll. Afterward, you can reward yourself with a delicious noodle soup at Ichiraku for an average of 20,000 yen. For true Konoha ninjas, a visit is especially worthwhile if you're in the vicinity. Otherwise, inquire about train and bus connections, which vary between weekdays and weekends. From Awaji Interchange, there's a shuttle service to Parking Lot F, from where you can comfortably walk to the park.

there are signs everywhere from the subway line to the herb garden. the garden is pleasant and well maintained. would recommend the roundtrip ropeway tickets if you like to spend time taking photos of the flowers and landscape. the ropeway brings you up to the top of the hill and you make your way down to the first station to take the ropeway back to the ground level.

I initially wondered if it was worth visiting KidZania in Japan when we could go to one in Korea, but my child really wanted to, so we went. And it was absolutely fantastic! At first, I was a bit flustered because it wasn't a kiosk reservation system like in Korea, but I got used to it and it was fine. The staff were friendly, the programs were diverse, and it was great to experience professions that aren't available in Korea. It's a shame we couldn't try the sushi chef, chocolatier, pizza master, or soft-serve ice cream shop because reservations were full. Unlike in Korea, the bank was convenient because you could visit freely without set times. It was nice that they gave us a card and a KidZania wallet to wear around our necks when we opened an account. Most importantly, booking in advance through Klook made for easy entry. If I get the chance to visit Japan again, I'll definitely go back!

i had a wonderful experience in this onsen, so relaxing and very convenient. However, i forgot my black wrist watch (Sophie Martin) in the locker that I used in no.2201. How can I claim it back? I went there awhile ago April 1,2026 (around 1pm). pls respond to me in my email at ardith.telewik01@gmail.com

Nice little tower. Good view and surprisingly clean windows. The revolving restaurant only has a very small selection, but it was enough for me. For me, it's a must-see if you're in Kobe.

We had a fantastic time at the Godzilla Interception Operation at Nijigen No Mori! The staff were very pleasant and helpful, we hardly had to wait at all on the zip line and the Godzilla Museum was fantastic with so many suits, scenes and models to marvel over (not to mention the opportunity to star in our own movie!) The Godzilla-themed food was pretty good to and reasonably priced. A must for any Godzilla fans visiting the area!

You can exchange your tickets right outside the station. Choose the 'A' package ticket, which includes the initial cable car ride, followed by the second section on the 'carletor' (a charming mountain train), and finally, the most thrilling single-person chairlift (though there's no seatbelt, it's very safe). After that, you can dine at the revolving restaurant. Be sure to go to the highest point to ride the sky bicycle (300 yen per person). It's absolutely worth it!
