It’s a pretty good place to have fun and enjoy with your family and kids. No waiting times for the rides since it’s usually not crowded, the tickets are kinda pricey though but I think its worth it, especially the year pass.

A fantastic family day out (family of four, children 6 and 2). Went on a Friday and aside from a few school groups, both the safari park and amusement park were very very quiet. I imagine it gets much busier in on the weekends/school breaks. Were able to drive around the safari at a leisurely pace and stop to see many animals. It is the perfect size and takes about 30 mins to get around. The amusement park is a little old but we all had a great time. My 6-year old son is over 120cm so could go on almost all the rides (aside from a couple of the larger roller-coasters) and there was plenty for my youngest son to enjoy free-of-charge too. Highly recommended.

You'll get a mix of newer and old rides. If you're planning to spend the day there then just buy a day pass out better a yearly pass. A lot of rides aren't worth the price of the entrance, between 300 and 1000 yen can become quite expensive to do them individually. They had quite a few places closed but you'll still pay the full price of entry of course. They are adding a few more rollercoasters and fixing the old ones. They have quite a few rides for small kids too. The food was ok, you can bring your own though. Pool, skate rink, seating areas, BBQ area and just about anything you can think of.

Any westerners going here should be aware the animals have very tiny, sad pens. Lacking in grass, trees, structures, huge wire, water, and space. Poop is everywhere. There are four rhinos confined to a tiny area with viewers encouraging fights while eating ice cream. The amusement park is a trap too. The long time between bus rides to the safari is a scam to get you to go into the amusement park. Your entry fee doesn’t buy you entry to rides. Those cost more and are sub par on their best day. They will try and trick you by upwelling you to caged bus rides. The cheapest option is a normal tour bus with air conditioning and windows. The cages would’ve been almost entirely pointless except the park would’ve gotten 4000 more yen out of you.

Great LOCAL Theme Park in Himeji Japan. We went on a week day during school period and hence the park was pretty much empty. It's great that all the rides are pretty much empty...it means no Queuing!! The best theme park in the world is not those has the newest rides or prettiest rides, it is those that doesn't has to queue 😉 Like my son said...there are probably more staff in the park today than visitors! Well worth the visit! No fighting to get on rides with rude tourist😂

This is one of the coolest things I've done in Japan. 98% of it is super ethical and such good value. If you're even in Osaka it's worth making the trip. The safari area is the main thing, there's also an amusement park but you have to pay for each ride unless you get another pass.

Great park visit. Staff was friendly, park kept clean, and rides kept going!

Fun place for adults and children. The safari is open for using owns car. The ride is also fun but it cost money to ride it even after buying the entrance ticket. Enjoy!

If you have a chance to visit Himeji, you must spend a whole day to stay in Himeji Central Park. The Park consists of three sections. You can pay 3500 for entering the three sections. One you can drive your own car to visit the built-in Safari. Remember please dont open the window. Another one is called amusement park in which there is a lot of games you can play with your kids. However, you need to pay extra (e.g. adult 3000 yen mor) for playing games in there. The last one is swimming pool. Please do come to visit there. I enjoyed it a lot today.

really nice place and the day is not enough to enjoy the fun …they have zoo , the amusement park and the pool area.

Direct access from Himeji Station by bus. The park seems a bit old, some attractions (like ferris wheel) were closed, but still they charge the full price for entrance and free pass. Aquarea is fun but would need some more shady places. Bring enough cash so you can order meals and drinks (they don't accept credit cards). You also need it for the coin lockers.

Extraordinary expensive, no Information in english for tourists (+ stuff didn't give right information) and in the Aquapark every rope closed early at 15.45, very long waiting times -- and: opening times on Google maps weren't right. We were very disappointed.

The park itself is enjoyable with lesser crowds compared to other amusement parks so there isn't a very long waiting time. The rides are kids/family friendly. The staff were also very accommodating despite the language barrier we had 🥲 The safari is the main highlight for me.
