- AptosAmyAptos, CA629 contributionsAn enjoyable experience. Each tank has a geographic theme representing unique Pacific Rim biodiversity. We enjoyed all of it. It was artful and lovely.Written April 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- Beachykeen70Sydney, Australia339 contributionsWe had a great day!
We have previously been to Universal Orlando and found a reasonable option to manage queues to use the Single Rider lanes.
We had read heaps of reviews and our take was that those with express passes had a great day, those without were frustrated with queue lines.
We also didn’t want or need the stress of trying to get passes into Nintendo World.
So, we paid the extra for the Express Pass (7) which basically meant we arrived at 8.30am, went on 9 rides (we went on a couple before the park was full without needing the express passes), had plenty of time for lunch, and to shop, and to even have a beer later, and to leave at 4.30pm after a great day.
When using the express pass, we never had to wait more than 10 minutes for a ride - staff seemed to really look after you.
We went on a Friday, after the first hour in the park, every ride had lines of between 60-120 minutes and the Single Rider lanes still had huge queues (50 minutes plus).
Without the stress of queuing, we enjoyed the park. Nintendo World is amazing - it’s like being in the game.
The express passes are expensive, but if you are prepared to buy them - you will have a much better day.Written April 18, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

In my opinion, it is a good destination to visit when you travel to Osaka, Japan.Written April 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- LolaGo1Washington DC, DC6,624 contributionsAfter getting off the Metro/Subway, I walked through the Park to enter the castle. Tnere are several areas of the Park where one can take photos of the castle, the moat, and the water.
There are benches in the park where one can sit down and rest for a short time. Also noted are some public restrooms and Lawson Snack Store.Written April 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- 639abbieCanberra, Australia1,143 contributionsA quiet area demanding respect and an absolute calming effect. The architecture and experience was inspiring and is recommended for a restful 30 minutes absorbing the areaWritten May 7, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Christian HOregon Coast, OR0 contributionsI opted for 4 stars because while it offers fantastic food and a lively atmosphere, there may be minor areas for improvement such as crowd management or cleanliness. Overall, it's an excellent experience deserving of high praise, but I reserve 5 stars for truly exceptional experiencesWritten May 3, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- WorldTravellerSoonCanada385 contributionsWe went there early in the morning on a rainy weekday. There we just 2 of us at that time. We chose the car with see through bottom. It is not entirely see through and I don't think it adds more thrill.
The ride is about 15-20 mins. We did enjoy the view even though it rained heavily.Written March 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

You can enjoy the city view and identify some buildings with the marking on the window. It is not really a must do but very enjoyable.Written March 27, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
- LolaGo1Washington DC, DC6,624 contributionsLocated several blocks form my hotel, I passed this attraction while walking from my hotel to the Osaka Station during my 4-day stay in Osaka.I noted people walking towards it and did not know that it is an attraction.
Entrance fee is 1,500 yen or about $10.00. I used the escalators to reach the Reception area where the entrance fees are paid. To go up the Viewing area, we took the elevator and several escalators. To go further up, one has to use the stairs. Nice viewing areas here, to see Osaka and its various neighborhoods, bridges, etc.
There is a Gift Shop, small museum,restaurants in the building. Some exhibits also explain the architects’ vision about the buildings. Outside, there are some gardens to visit, some fountains too.Written April 29, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Great place to visit, wasn't crowded .it shows the old Osaka house and living. They had English speaking staff. I anted to experience the kimono. But waiting time was an hour and a half, so I didn't have the chance to do so. Overall I recommend visiting it and take pictures there.Written August 7, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- Darren LQueenstown, MD848 contributionsI’m sure the view from the observation level is amazing, however, if you don’t have the time at least ride the normal elevators to the 16th floor (Marriott Hotel Lobby). Because the floors are fairly tall, this is quite far up and with large windows provides a pretty spectacular view over Osaka.
As a plus, you can walk over to the hotel lobby and use the bathrooms or cafe.Written March 20, 2024This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

The only con is that adults need to pay as well, when its entirely a kids activity.Written August 26, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.
