Miho Museum, Hikone Castle & La Collina Day Tour

Many thanks to Mr. Hanazawa (driver + guide) for this trip. Although we used AI voice navigation in the car, the guide was especially attentive when we got on and off. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. Even though there were only three attractions on the entire itinerary, all of them were exceptionally high-quality and unique. I thoroughly enjoyed and lingered at the Miho Museum, designed by the master I.M. Pei, especially with the cherry blossoms in full bloom and the precious exhibits. The Baumkuchen factory had a surreal landscape, like stepping into a Miyazaki film. Finally, Hikone Castle exuded the charm of ancient Japan, and I even encountered the adorable Hikone Cat wearing a raincoat! The scenery along the way was beautiful, with cherry blossom-lined paths everywhere, lush trees, and verdant farmland, making the long drive feel effortless.

I am very satisfied with this tour from SANSAN Co., Ltd. Before the trip, they proactively sent an email with the driver's contact information, and their responses to questions were very prompt. All three attractions on this tour were places I really enjoyed. The pick-up and drop-off point in Osaka, Q Plaza Shinsaibashi, was very convenient, and the time spent at each of the three attractions was ample. Mr. Hanazawa, the driver arranged for this trip, provided excellent service and had no issues communicating in both Chinese and English, so solo travelers don't need to worry. This tour is highly recommended for travelers with limited time who want to visit three attractions at once.
