How Kids-Friendly is Tempozan Ferris Wheel?

Enclosed cabins and optional glass-floor gondolas excite children yet stay safe; strollers can roll on, ride lasts only 15 min, but queues for special cabins can test young patience.

Considerations for visiting Tempozan Ferris Wheel (with kids)

Positives:

  • Stroller Access: Use low-floor cabins for easy roll-on boarding with a stroller.
  • Free Weather Forecast: Read LED colors with kids to predict tomorrow’s weather.

Challenges:

  • Peak Hour Waits: Glass-floor cabins can have 30 min lines on weekends.

This wheel is really huge, and the view around it is quite nice — not spectacular, but pleasant. Honestly, I wouldn’t travel here just for this. We had an Osaka Pass and took a ferry trip, so we thought, why not ride the wheel too? There were almost no people. We had to wait a bit longer for the glass-floor cabins(10 min), but in my opinion, it’s not worth it — the regular cabins are just fine.

I enjoyed this ride. The queue waiting time for cabin with transparent floor was not long (less than 10 minutes), and the ferris wheel turning speed is excellent, you get to enjoy the view. Also, you can get guidance of what you can observe through built-in speakers in cabin.

A wonderful experience. After leaving the aquarium. We decided to take a ride since it was a quiet day and the lines were not long. Our daughters wanted to ride in the "clearview" glass bottom car, which you have to wait in a separate line for since there are only approximately eight cars out of the 60 or so that are completely clear. I will say it was definitely worth the wait for us... and the r...
