    We had a great time visiting for one day. I had bought Express Passes with timed entry for Harry Potter and Super Mario worlds in advance from Klook. The passes are very expensive but I don’t think we would’ve enjoyed our trip anywhere near as much without them.

    The park was very busy and chaotic in parts especially with entrances to areas being blocked by people taking photos.

    Park staff are constantly waving and greeting people with a smile, it must be exhausting but you can tell they want everyone to enjoy themselves.

    If you’ve been to the Orlando park, it will feel very similar in a good way.

    DisneySea in Tokyo blew me away! It’s like stepping into another world—stunning architecture, immersive themes, and some of the best rides I’ve ever been on. Tower of Terror? Absolutely wild. The food was a surprise too—who knew theme park snacks could be this good? Popcorn in crazy flavors, perfectly Instagrammable churros. It’s not just for kids; it’s an adventure for anyone who loves a bit of magic. Worth every cent!

    The Southeast Botanical Gardens are not only beautiful and relaxing, but they also play a crucial role in education and conservation. A visit to it was a rejuvenating experience that deepens your connection to nature.

    Went here with family, theres some really good rides but it should be called "Fuji Queue Highland". Make your life easy and get the day ticket which includes all the extra parks like Thomas Land otherwise you have to deal with hard to use ticket machines for each ride. Use the bus and the train to get back into the town from here, you need to speak Japanese to order a taxi

    If you can go off season I really recommend this place. In summer it can get very busy, access through car can be time consuming as the roads in and out are quite narrow, one lane often.
    The park is well laid out with lots of wildlife and safari tours. There are also theme park rides for kids from 3 or 4 years old. The restaurants are reasonable and the giftshops have lots to bring back home with you.
    There are many shows so if you plan your visit before you arrive you can fit in a lot of activities.

    Lots to do at the park for all ages. Tickets are not cheap, but acceptable. Not that nice if it's raining, would be nice if they add more indoor/covered cafes/restaurants. The scenery and flowers are nice, with some attractions and evening illuminations/shows and souvenir stores (look for the Huis Ten Bosch limited edition Nano Block!).

    Can get crowded, but can use the app to check the line up time/show times, which is quite useful.

    Quite a bit of walk inside the park , the shuttle can be more frequent.
    Some restaurants have quite a line up , and the ticket/queuing has to be done by Line app, which foreign visitors may not have.

    Part chocolate factory, part theme park. The place continues to be a must stop for many visiting Sapporo. It is not bad place to spend a few hours as there are plenty to see and it’s a great place for shooting photos for your social media posting. They even have several cafes both indoor and outdoor for visitors to rest and recharge.
    Entry to the garden area is free but you would have to pay admission into the building. The rose garden area is especially beautiful when all their flowers are in full bloom.
    The entry ticket is reasonable and it comes with a free sample of their famous white chocolate cookie. The self guided tour is informative, as one gets to learn about the origins of chocolate and given an opportunity of behind the scene view on how their popular products are made. At an extra fee, one can also sign up for a make and decorate a cookie or cupcakes workshop, which at the end of the session you can then bring back your creation to eat.
    Personal favorite has to be their cafe on level 3. It’s has great dessert menu with seasonal special and if you managed to get a window seat, it offers a nice view of the garden and it’s a perfect spot to watch the clock tower performance.
    For those looking for normal food or just peckish after all the walk around, they do have a cafeteria style eatery at level 2 which has a decent menu for both finger food and mains.
    After being immersed in all things chocolate and sweet is still not enough. There are 2 retail shops just before you exit the place. One offers more bakery items like bread and spreads, while the other is more for confectionery items. The latter is a sugar heaven, as it has assortment of their sweet and chocolate products all beautifully wrapped as gifts and available in different qualities making it perfect either for sampling or as souvenirs. But would recommend just buying those items that are limited to the park itself as will save you the trouble of having to carry your purchase about, as all their items are priced the same and available at both the airport and retail shops in town.
    Overall find the place great for young kids and anyone with a sweet tooth.

    FOr the ticket price it is worth it. But with new technology theyneed to up their techno. game.
    Also, the buffet needs to cater to vegetarians. Finally the boar ride typically has 100 minute wait time. One of the reason is that they don pack the boats. If the person wants to go individually thats fine. But they can ask the audience if they want to share as most boats with capacity of 6 go with 1 or 2 people creating logn wait times

    Nice historical theme park. We arrived at 2pm and things were already slowing down. Best to go earlier when you can participate in more of the hands-on activities (block painting, arrow shooing, Geisha makeup, mask painting). We enjoyed the Ninja show and activity.

    Sea paradise is a nice break form all the hustle in the big cities. Its farily easy to get here but some walking is necessary if arriving by monorail. The park itself is free of charge so you only pay if wanting to enter any attraction. I went fot the 4 aquarium ticket which give access to the main aquariam + 3 other smaller places. The main aquarium is medium sized witha few nice tanks and the main atracctions are the dolhpin, ice bear and penguins. They also do live shows that are worth seeing if you have ticket for the aquarium. Note you can go in and out as you wish as long as you keep your ticket. The top of the aquarium have som enclosures with diffrent small animals and bird. Its actually possible to enter one of the enclosures and be amongst the flamingos, ducks and capybara as long as you do not fdeed or touch the animals. I actually had a flamingo who decided to go between my legs so they are used to humans.
    The other aquriums was very small where one is just a place where you can feed fish. If you pay extra you can also fish yourself.
    There are also a few rides but most are for children.
    The area also got some good restauarants and one of them allows you to grill the fish you caught or just simply buy stuff and have bbq.
    This isnt a big park like USJ or Tokyo Disney but still worth the visit if you got time.

    A very nice theme park attached to an onsen and holiday complex (which looked worth a stay from what we saw). Also had factory outlets similar to the American ones. The theme park had excellent rides, however, many were shut in light rain. Fortunately they opened the rides towards the end of the day when the rain stopped, so that more than made up for our initial disappointment. A lot of fun during good weather.

    I always visit zoo and Sea World in many places. More than getting knowledge, I wish the fee I pay will help the places having income to take good care of the animals they have and help in conservation their species.
    For Kamogawa Sea World, overall area is nice. It is located at the beach front so you could walk on the beach from the parking lot. The exhibition and how to present knowledge are good. There are many shows of animal, it is fun to watch. I experienced of taking picture with the smiling seal by purchasing activity ticket after the show. I had lunch at the Restaurant Ocean which there are windows that could see killer whale underwater. It is good experience that I could see how they swim and react to each other.
    But I found out from watching them that they were trying to find small piece of fish flowing in the water and eat them. They are hungry. After showing, I saw the whale tried to ask more food from the trainer but he didn't give them. I know that while showing, they will get reward from the trainer and that may cause them to limit their food but it is a kind of forcing and torture them. Seeing them swimming, they were not happy like when they were acting in showing time. In my opinion, just having them for knowledge and raising sense of preservation for visitors but no showing is the best.

    Yes there some good rides/ games in there, however, like everything popular in Tokyo - there are QUEUES! (upto 60 minutes sometimes, and this ain't even Disneyland or Universal Studios).
    There's also lots of pay arcade and claw machines.

    If you have patience and time, this could be a good outing for you (for me, this was towards the end of my Tokyo stay, and I had had enough of all this queueing)
