🍓 Izu Nagaoka Strawberry Picking & Shuzenji Onsen Day Tour, Seasonal Scenery 🌸

  • Don't miss strawberry picking when you come to Izu Nagaoka! The warm climate and abundant water quality in the park give birth to juicy, sweet and delicious strawberries. The 30-minute unlimited picking and eating experience allows you to enjoy the sweetness of various strawberry varieties. If the strawberry season is adjusted, we will also arrange to go to other picking spots or provide local gifts. Don't miss the seasonal delicacies!
  • Then come to the "Little Kyoto" Shuzenji Onsen area. The long-standing Shuzenji Temple makes people feel like traveling back to ancient Japan. This is not only a well-known hot spring resort in Japan, but also favored by many writers such as Akutagawa Ryunosuke and Natsume Soseki. In addition to the hot springs, you can also visit Shuzenji Temple founded by Kobo Daishi, walk through the bamboo forest path, and enjoy the picturesque scenery and fresh air. The quiet hot spring town and Japanese beauty hot springs will completely relax your body and mind. The five red bridges of Shuzenji are the "happy bridges" that witness love. 💖
  • The Izu Peninsula welcomes the Kawazu Sakura Festival (visit from February 5th to March 9th). Kawazu Sakura blooms early in early February, and the pink petals complement the yellow rapeseed flowers on both sides of the Kawazu River, forming a beautiful picture. This 6.5-kilometer Kawazu Sakura Flower Viewing Trail not only allows you to enjoy the beautiful scenery of cherry blossoms and rapeseed flowers, but also has a variety of snack stalls and souvenirs for sale along the way. It is a good place to experience the Japanese Sakura Festival. 🌸 From March 10th, visitors can move to Sakura Village, where there are more than 1,500 cherry trees planted with rich varieties, and the flowering period lasts from winter to spring. In February, you can enjoy the winter cherry blossoms and Kawazu Sakura, and in March, the Oshima cherry blossoms and Ito cherry blossoms are in full bloom. The Somei Yoshino cherry blossoms are the most gorgeous when they are in full bloom. From March, we will also give you a free tour of the Jogasaki Coast and Kadowaki Suspension Bridge. Stroll along the suspension bridge and overlook the stunning seascape of waves crashing between the rocks. It’s all breathtaking. No matter when you visit, Izu’s seasonal limited events will make your trip full of unique and charming memories, and taking photos and checking in is easy, waiting for everyone who loves Japanese style to experience it~📸🌸
In Kawazu Town, you can enjoy the beautiful sight of pink cherry blossoms blooming from early February to mid-March every year.

Review for: Meeting point (meal not included)

We kick off the day early at Tokyo Station. First stop, Izu Fruit Park, where we get to pick and enjoy super fresh and sweet strawberries. Next, we take a peaceful stroll through a bamboo forest, soaking in the calm vibes and beautiful scenery. Then, it’s off to Shuzenji Temple, a historic and cultural hidden gem in the heart of the Izu Peninsula. Finally, we wrap up the day at the stunning Kawazu River, where the early blooming cherry blossoms was so amazing.

Review for: Meeting point (meals not included; early bird discount)

It is easy to find the meeting point which is at North exit of Tokyo Station. We are quite lucky that the Sakura at Kawazu is fully bloom although it is raining, we can still enjoy the Sakura. The Strawberry picking at Izu is also very satisfying, all you can eat and pick!

Review for: 集合地（不含餐）

There is an early bird price which is very friendly, and you can choose the language which makes the trip feel at ease (it turns out that almost all the group members speak Chinese haha). The instructions for the meeting point are very clear, and the guide's instructions and answers to questions are also in place. The itinerary is really good, the strawberries 🍓 are very big and sweet, it's better to say that you go directly to the shed to eat them than to pick them hahaha. The time for the hot spring is a bit tight, but it's still very good to be able to give you an itinerary where you can soak in it, and relax and refresh yourself. The highlight at the end, the flowers bloomed very well, and the weather was also very good, and it felt like everything was worth it. I chose to join the tour because it was cheaper than taking the railway by myself. It is indeed a richer and more worry-free itinerary. There was also a traffic jam when returning to Tokyo on the day when the flowers were in full bloom, and it took six hours to drive back... The driver and tour guide worked hard, and it was still very satisfactory overall. This is the first time I have signed up for such a small local tour, and I may be willing to take itineraries to other places in the future.

Thank you to our tour guide Nakajima Yong for his patience and interesting explanation. Although the trip was delayed for almost 2 hours due to the breakdown of Japan ETC, the beautiful scenery along the way and the guide's patient company with us, explaining the local customs and folkways of Shuzenji Temple and the geography and culture of Omuroyama, as well as the happy strawberry 🍓 all-you-can-eat, I am still very grateful for this trip and feel it is worthwhile to participate.

03-02 Sunday, all the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. The outbound trip was basically smooth. I could eat as much strawberries as I wanted. After 15 minutes, I couldn't eat anymore😂. The strawberries I ate🍓 would cost 200-300 yuan if I bought them at a convenience store. The Izu coastal highway is good. When I got to Kawazu, I found that all the cherry blossoms were in full bloom. It was very beautiful. The return trip was too congested. The road was two-lane. It took 6 hours to get to Tokyo. The Chinese tour guide explained the whole journey. The ticket price was worth it. It was worth the trip.

Excited to pick big & juicy strawberries, enjoyed a not so crowded onsen at hotel and took a stroll in quaint town. Many in the group were disappointed that Sakura petals had mostly dropped after a whole day of rain, hence couldn't see an entire row of pink at the river. Friendly guide Ouyang gave off positive vibes and driver was flexible to find route to avoid jams! On the bus, we caught clear sights of Mt Fuji to and fro. Managed ur expectation as the places of interest stated are options, not all will be covered in each trip.

Led by our tour guide Carter Sasaki, we ate strawberries, saw Kawazu Sakura, and finally went to Shuzenji Temple. It's still a long drive from Tokyo Station to Izu, and the round trip may take about 4.5 hours. The weather today is particularly good, and it's a day with wonderful memories.
