Things to do in Hitachi Seaside Park

Our Nepalese tour guide introduced each attraction in both Mandarin and English, and the schedule was well-arranged, making the trip very relaxed. Transportation for both the outbound and return journeys was smooth.

The itinerary was rich and fulfilling without feeling too strenuous. We were able to enjoy multiple Ibaraki attractions in just one day. I highly recommend coming during hydrangea season; the weather is pleasant and the scenery is beautiful! Additionally, our tour guide, Ashley, was very responsible and provided detailed and informative explanations. All my family members loved this one-day tour arrangement!

It was a very enjoyable trip. Although we didn't see fields of flowers because it was the wrong season, Hitachi Seaside Park itself is beautiful, and cycling through the park was very relaxing. You absolutely must try the freshly shucked oysters at Nakaminato Fish Market; they are incredibly sweet and fresh. Our tour guide, Cora, was very kind and highly recommended.

Worth it! Lots of flowers and driver is easy to talk to. Good time to visit around early June where the weather is like autumn.

It was a very impressive trip, and the guide provided excellent service. When we visited, the garden was planting flowers, around June 8th. It was a memorable trip; the seafood was delicious, fresh, and very affordable. It was a worthwhile trip.

Great tour if you'd like to visit 2 flower parks in one day + a coastal Shinto shrine. Hitachi Seaside Park is vast, and the nemophilia field is magical. Ashikaga Flower Park is full of colorful roses. Our guide was very helpful and educational.

just 2 itineraries make us more comfortable in time management, flowers are beautiful

We went in late May when Japan had a cold spot right when we expected summer heat. The weather was glorious and we rode a coaster (which I like better than a smaller van or a bigger bus). Our guide Arpun was chill, friendly and responsive to all questions and requests (like a bathroom break soon after we took off from one of the senior tour guests....) But due to the timing of our visit, we did not see as many flowers. I think best to come early to mid June. So we just explored the shrines and the temples. There were a lot of nice spots for photos. At Hitachi Seaside Park, be ready to do a lot of walking, though you have the option to rent a bike for a small fee. At the Seafood market, wish we had more time to explore because the nice places had a queue and we weren't quite sure where best to dine. In the end, we went to Minato Bistro, good service and good food.
