Things to do in Wakayama

There were very few Japanese reviews, and Adventure World wasn't on the list of available facilities. However, many reviews mentioned people going there, and the dolphin show was visible in photos, so I decided to take a chance and purchase it, knowing I could cancel if needed. I was a bit worried until I used it, but it worked perfectly on the day! At Adventure World, you present the QR code at the ticket counter, and after scanning, they issue a ticket (normally 5,300 yen), which you then use to enter the gate. I had a fantastic time and thoroughly enjoyed it. Next, I went to the KEY TERRACE hot spring in the evening. There, I informed the hotel front desk that I was there for a day-use hot spring, presented the QR code, and received a hot spring ticket (normally 1,000 yen). The view from the open-air bath was absolutely beautiful. This time, I used two facilities, which would normally cost 6,300 yen, but since this ticket was 2,800 yen, I saved 3,500 yen. It's an excellent deal even just for Adventure World, so if you're going to Adventure World, you should definitely buy this ticket!

thanks for the great experience! we had fun with the tour - time and itinerary are well arranged, according to plan. Tour Lead Guide are friendly and helpful. And the scenery at the cliff are amazing! highly recommended for those who love beaches

I highly recommend this tour, which covers both natural landscapes and historical sites. Our driver and guide, Li Xiang, managed the time perfectly, allowing ample time to explore each location. We spent 1 hour and 50 minutes at the Tore Tore Market. The Senjojiki rock formations were absolutely stunning on a clear day, and the panoramic 360-degree view of Wakayama City from Wakayama Castle's main keep was fantastic. We had a great time. These attractions would be difficult to reach by public transport, making this one-day tour excellent value for money.

I had an amazing time with my guide, Kimi! Kimi was super knowledgeable and sweet during the tour, and was extremely engaging with my friend and I (we did a private tour for 2). We went to the tour knowing very little about the cultural significance aside from what we read online and finished a tour with a newfound appreciation for the Nachisan area. It is an understatement how much I enjoyed myself on this tour and I highly reccommend everyone to book this tour if they are going to see the nachi falls! Aside from the amazing guide, the tour company was also very responsive, providing email updates on who to contact and where to meet, making it very easy to find our guide on the day itself.

The itinerary was good and we enjoyed all the stops ourselves. The driver/guide was friendly but there was no guided tour, it was pretty much a transportation service with minimal communication.

It was great to see a part of Japan that wasn't touristy and would have been difficult to access without a personal driver. Our guide was great and extremely sweet. She did not speak fluent English but was still very helpful and got us arouns safe. We highly recommend this tour if you would like to see a part of Japan that has more locals than tourist!

Great tour Koyasan is so peaceful and beautiful. A highlight of my trip.Highly recommend.
