Things to do in Okayama

Couldn't be better, very considerate of tourists. Saves tourists time and money, incorporating unforgettable attractions along the way in convenient locations. Moreover, they navigate extremely narrow mountain roads like those in Iya Valley with ease. A+ is not enough to reflect the dedication of the chartered driver; it's not just hiring a driver, but also getting a considerate tour guide. There's really nothing to criticize. I chartered a car three times in a row, and each time it was an extremely unforgettable journey. Even though I requested such an early departure, they even arrived early and without any complaints, still enjoying themselves. Such a dedicated and enthusiastic driver is truly rare.

Great value buying these together! Both passes are excellent. The JR Kansai Wide Pass covers a large area, offering great value if you travel a lot. Plus, you can reserve seats six times. Just a round trip from KIX Airport to Okayama pays for itself on the Shinkansen! The Have Fun Pass lets you enter attractions or redeem discount tickets for three items. We chose Kurashiki (received 10 coupons for snacks and drinks), entry to Okayama Castle + ice cream, and a 1000 yen discount coupon for Bic Camera. Highly recommended!

The last boss Hongo san is very professional in designing my hair and was very patient when taking my photos. She did not mind helping to take as many as possible and has pretty good photography skills.
