Review for: 【冬季限定】深山雪燈祭之旅(大阪出發)

It's a pity that we didn't encounter snow during this visit to Miyama, but it was really relaxing to walk around. The place is not big and it takes about an hour to walk around. I look forward to encountering beautiful snow next time I visit Miyama.

It’s great to be able to book the last day’s activity itinerary for the Meishan Village Snow Lantern Gallery on Klook! Although the snow melted during this period, the shrine dance performance or the fireworks show made me feel satisfied and happy😌

The tour guide Linda, who is Taiwanese, is very kind and enthusiastic in introducing Meishan. It is very peaceful and beautiful. 1/27 The first day of the snow lantern gallery event. The children were very happy to see the snow. It was a great trip.

My family and I had a great experience with this tour. The drive was long but at least we had stop overs on the way to and from Miyama. The village itself was beautiful, although there weren't many people around. It was also good that there were stalls there selling food.

Personnel counting and gathering can further enhance efficiency, such as notifying the vehicle number by email before departure, etc. Although there was no snow during this trip due to the weather, we also saw beautiful scenery and rare performances and fireworks.

Making snow lanterns should be done by one person, but it’s just a candle and a transparent disposable cup. I don’t think the cost is very high, and it’s originally a price for one person, because I saw that there was only one for a family of four when I went there. Lamp, after communicating with the tour guide, I reluctantly gave him two lights... This is really unreasonable. I think that after arriving in Meishan, if one person comes with a Meishan milk or a small local food, it will make the whole journey more enjoyable. I think it's more perfect to have a caring feeling, maybe I will give 5 hearts

On the last day of the Snow Lantern Festival on 2/3, the weather was fine and the snow had melted🫠🫠; the bakery in the village was amazing, freshly baked for 150 yen each, highly recommended👍👍; the travel agency staff’s inventory and gathering was chaotic, it is recommended to improve the efficiency; purchase The itinerary includes a snow lantern making experience, but no information was received on site.

Booked the second round and it was great. So much fun. The atmosphere was so local. Even though there was no snow the last time, it was worth it. The guide could speak English and was easy to understand. I liked it.
