Exceptional tour! These spots were so incredibly beautiful; this is what I see when I think of Cherry Blossoms in Japan! Our guide was so kind and everything went so smoothly. Highly Highly recommend!
I has such a wonderful experience with the guide, Gino. He is incredibly friendly, warm, and easy to get along with, which made the whole trip even more enjoyable. The trip truly exceeded my expectations—I was able to see so many beautiful cherry blossoms and really take in the scenery. Gino also made sure we visited all the key highlights, so we didn’t miss anything important. Everything was perfectly arranged, and I felt very well taken care of. Highly recommended!
I really enjoyed this tour and our tour guides made this tour even more enjoyable with their friendly cheerful personalities. We saw some spectacular cherry blossom sights and although it was a long tour (all day) the time flew. I would book again! thank you Curtis
Amazing tour! Well-organized, and the guides were knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. The destinations are beautiful, and we managed to see a lot in one day, making it great value for money. Although we couldn't visit the final destination due to traffic congestion, I still highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for an amazing cherry blossom sightseeing experience.
This was our first Cherry Blossom tour that was worth more than what we we expected. Our tour guide Lully was very professional and polite including our bus driver who drove us safely to and from our destination. We got to see alot in 1 day during this cherry blossom season and highly recommend this tour to anyone looking for an amazing Cherry Blossom experience.
More details to compliment Norman’s review on 4/3/2026. We were in same group guided by Lully. The places covered were eclectic , such as sun set strolling along Takata Waterway. And Lully was able to pick better route on the peak day because all cherry blossoms lovers are crowding to the same venues in Nara.
Both tour guides are nice and friendly. They really took care for each of us throughout our trip. To my surprise, they can also speak three languages - English, Chinese and Korea and ensure we understand the instruction clear. The timing to travel from one place to another place is fine. Though we did not manage to travel to last place due to traffic congestion, we really enjoy the trip.
A successful cherry blossom chasing trip. The cherry blossoms at Yohei and Tsubosaka-dera Temple were incredibly beautiful, like stepping into another world. Many thanks to today's guide, who was very patient and enthusiastic, and helped us take some lovely photos.
