Wakayama

Very convenient and cost-effective. It covers all the sights and transportation from Osaka to Koyasan. Using the e-ticket on the bus is quicker and easier than using cash. Excellent.

Arriving at Wakayama Station, I walked toward Platform 9 and exchanged for my one-day ticket. There was a machine next to the counter for entry and exit, and I wasn't sure if I should use the card to exit. The station attendant didn't explain, and I was a bit confused. 😕 If I'm not hiking, I'll stay here for about 2-3 hours before heading to Wakayama Castle. As I exit Platform 9, the station attendant will give me a slip. I remembered that some travelers who have stayed in the station for over 4 hours have experienced issues with their card when exiting, so I used the card to exit, and the charge went through. 😩

It is very helpful for long-distance transportation, and it does not need to be used continuously, making it easier to plan your trip. It is also very convenient to use the physical card to enter and exit, and you can enter and exit without the Internet. There are discounts on sightseeing tickets and attraction tickets. It is super cost-effective and I give it 100 points

The driver arrived early because we had an airport transfer scheduled for 5:00 am. There was an additional fee of 4,000 yen, which had to be paid in cash and could not be paid by card. The luggage was collected once the passengers were seated. The car was quite large, but the elderly had poor legs and feet, and there were 4 of us. The driver asked 2 of us to climb into the back seat. It is recommended that if there are elderly people, 3 of them can sit in the front seat and one person can sit in the passenger seat for easier access.

It's a fantastic deal! Just two round-trip Shinkansen trips from Okayama to Himeji pay for themselves, and you can even travel to Takamatsu and Utazu in Shikoku. The included Okayama Enjoyment Voucher gives you free admission to Okayama Castle and Korakuen Garden, plus a bonus Okayama Castle sundae, department store coupons, and more—it's a fantastic value.
