This is a fun cheesy tourist destination with lots of cute photo ops. As this was my first visit I felt it was a good flow. I was told before it was not as organized but now there is a much better flow than there was before. You buy your ticket after parking and board the pineapple train from the parking lot. It takes you over to the main area while showing you around the park and where they grow the pineapples. There are paid photo opp here at the beginning that you can buy at the end. You can also just purchase the digital version. You then take a (max of) 4 person (you won't share with others you don't know, so if there is 2 of you, then 2 will be in one car) cart that auto drives you through more of the park (the inside portion). After you get out of the car it's a walk through of the park. There's a few things to see such as the butterfly area, restaurant where you can get some pineapple refreshments (we went with the massive pineapple shaved ice, would recommend as it's a great photo op... Like I felt it was Instagramable), dinosaur area, areas explaining plants and more. There's also a room with more photo ops. Near the end of the tour is the area where you can buy pineapple goods. With your ticket you have a chance to win items and even win your purchase. It's only at the first store though. The other store is more the drinks. They do have free samples so you can try them. They have a winery/liquor shop there as well. It's quite pretty the area that houses the alcohol. After you take the train back and get to your car. For me it was a lot of fun. They do play this one song repeatedly. So if you can't stand it, this may not be the place for you. I'm ok with repetition and it's oddly catchy, but it is their theme song, so I guess that was the point. The parking lot is pretty large so pretty easy. You can pay by card here.

At Nago Pineapple Park, the gift shop is much bigger than the actual park. I don't like pineapples so from the start I wasn't too interested in anything at the park. You go in, get a ticket, then line up for the electric cart to start the process. The Pineapple Park tour starts with you lining up for the electric carts. Once in, they'll take a picture of you (1st one) in the carts as a souvenir in case you'd like to purchase it later. The electric carts are programmed and run their course. You can't change the course of the cart once started (at least I couldn't figure out how to change it). The cart takes you around the Pineapple Park where they grow and harvest pineapples at the facility. You'll learn a few quick facts here and there about pineapples. Towards the end of the cart ride (total time probably 5 minutes), another picture is taken of you in case you want another souvenir photo. After 5 minutes of riding on the cart, you are dropped off at the entrance of the walking section. From there you'll be walking above parts of where the cart had just driven you around for closer inspection. This is where they really grow the pineapples so you'll run into a lot of insects. We ran into a very large spider and decided to use a different path. That's what people should use instead of "Do Not Enter" sign, they should put giant spiders cause most people will stay the heck away. Once you're done walking around, you then proceed into the very large gift shop. There are several gift shops on the way to the exit. Each gift shop is bigger than the last one. So if you notice the gift shops are getting bigger, you're going in the right direction. In the gift shop you'll find a lot of unusual pineapple related products such as curry, wine, tea and apparel.

This place is a total scam racket set up to fleece you of all your money. It starts off fun as you drive around the pineapple farm in the Pineapple express train truck looking at all the cute little pineapples. When you finally arrive at the station, you are transferred to a self driving golf cart that drives you around the exotic garden inside. You're not allowed to take photos as you go and are stopped at key locations where photos are taken off you and later sold to you for 3000 yen. Then you get to walk around the catwalks above where the golf carts take you, looking at the same plants and flowers you just looked at. The pathway leads you to a snack bar where you can buy pineapple ice cream, pineapple juice, pineapple fruit, and other stuff. Once you leave there it's more walking out to the pineapple fields where you can take a picture with a giant pineapple. All along the walkways they have these little furry pineapple dolls set up that will record and repeat what you say to them. Once you walk through the same areas you just drove through you arrive at the dinosaur section. Why dinosaurs? They are all animatronic and look somewhat real except for the giant caster wheels that are used to move them around. Once you finally get clear of that you arrive at the gift shop. This is a gift shop like no other. It is huge. Bigger than the park. It is in sections so you don't notice how big it is until you escape. They start by serving you wine so as to slow you down. Next comes cake and sweets all pineapple flavored. Then real pineapples and other fruits. Then noodles and...it went on and on and I had to escape. I finally found the exit and sat outside waiting for my family to find me.
