Kanazawa

ভ্রমণটি অসাধারণ ছিল, আমাদের গাইড কানা অত্যন্ত বন্ধুত্বপূর্ণ ছিলেন এবং পথে থাকাকালীন সমস্ত তথ্য আগে থেকেই দিয়েছিলেন, তাই যখন আপনি পৌঁছাবেন তখন আপনি ইতিমধ্যেই জানবেন কোনটিকে অগ্রাধিকার দিতে হবে এবং সহজে ঘুরে দেখার জন্য একটি মানচিত্রও আপনার কাছে থাকবে। ভ্রমণটি তাড়াতাড়ি শুরু হয়, কিন্তু যখন আপনি পৌঁছান, তখন ভিড় ততটা থাকে না যা বেশ ভালো। তার পরামর্শ অনুসরণ করে প্রথমে অবজারভেটরিতে যাওয়া ভালো, আমি যখন পৌঁছানোর পর গিয়েছিলাম তখন প্রায় খালি ছিল কিন্তু এক ঘন্টা পরে এটি খুব ভিড় হয়ে গিয়েছিল এবং দিনের বাকি সময়টা এমনই ছিল। দুপুরের খাবারটি দারুণ ছিল এবং ঐতিহ্যবাহী খাবার চেখে দেখার একটি চমৎকার সুযোগ ছিল। উভয় স্থানই সত্যি বলতে শ্বাসরুদ্ধকর ছিল এবং আমরা একটি রৌদ্রোজ্জ্বল দিন পেয়ে খুব ভাগ্যবান ছিলাম। বাসটিও দারুণ ছিল এবং সত্যি বলতে পরিবহনের জন্য পাবলিক তথ্য ১০ বার পরীক্ষা না করে সঠিক দিকে যাচ্ছি কিনা তা নিশ্চিত না হতে পেরে ভালো লেগেছিল :)। সব মিলিয়ে আমি মনে করি আপনি যদি এই এলাকায় থাকেন তবে অভিজ্ঞতাটি অবশ্যই মূল্যবান!

First, I'd like to thank our tour guide, Ms. Anna, for leading us on the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route tour on May 8th. From the moment we boarded the bus, she provided very detailed explanations and repeated them in both Chinese and English. It seemed like if there were Japanese participants, she might have even explained it in Japanese again. She was able to explain the origins of everything, from the history of Tateyama and its scenic spots to the herbs on the Chizushi bento box, which was truly impressive. Furthermore, during the tour, she would always be the first to arrive at the meeting point, holding her flag high, and would frequently offer helpful tips, such as information on limited-edition local products, seating areas, recommended seating positions on public transport, crowd control, and perfect timing. In short, she is a truly admirable person. Regarding the attractions, I honestly feel we were very lucky. I initially thought it would be a day ruined by heavy rain, as it was pouring heavily on the way to Tateyama Station... My heart sank at that moment. I thought, "How are we going to enjoy anything like this?" However, from Tateyama Station onwards, the rain stopped. Then, at Murodo, at a crucial moment, there was only fog and wind, but the visibility was still very good, making the experience uniquely enjoyable. The fog even created a snow-like, yet not quite snowy, atmosphere. Besides our own group, I saw many other tourists having a great time. Later, at Daikanbo, there was no rain or fog when we were at the observation deck or riding the ropeway. We were able to take in the entire panoramic view, which was truly breathtaking. Any photo taken there could easily be a postcard. At Kurobe Lake and Kurobe Dam, I had heard there would be significant rain, but by the time our group arrived at Kurobe Lake, the rain had stopped, and visibility was incredibly high. The unobstructed view of the dam was another kind of spectacular and magnificent sight. Was our group blessed with some special luck? Thank you to our tour guide and the hardworking driver. Watching him drive precisely and smoothly on the dark, winding roads on the way back showed his extensive experience. Most of the tourists, including myself, slept soundly. Thank you to all the staff for providing us with such a wonderful experience on this one-day tour! I would definitely recommend this to friends who aspire to travel independently but also want an easy way to experience the Kurobe Tateyama Alpine Route.

We started and ended on time. Our tour guide, Ceasar, was helpful and knowledgeable about the tour. Special thanks to our bus driver, Yamafuji, who brought us back safely to Kanazawa.

দারুণ সময় কেটেছে। আমাদের গাইড কেইটা আমাদের অনেক পটভূমি তথ্য দিতে সময় নিয়েছিলেন। আমরা পুরো দিনের ট্যুর করেছিলাম যার মধ্যে দারুমা পেইন্টিং অন্তর্ভুক্ত ছিল এবং এটি একটি মজাদার কার্যকলাপ ছিল এবং কানাজাওয়ার কিছু অংশ দেখার একটি দুর্দান্ত উপায়ও ছিল। আমি অবশ্যই এই ট্যুরটি সুপারিশ করব।

What an amazing tour! Mike was very a great guide and very knowledgeable about the towns and their history. Some of the small museums has very little information provided, but Mike was able to give us thorough explanations with engaging storytelling. We would never have found out about the wood carving village Inami, but it was such a great place to learn about local history and craft traditions. This tour provide very good value and never upcharged us or surprised us with unknown fees. I would highly recommend the tour to anyone looking to explore beyond Kanazawa.

Great walking tour in Kanazawa! Keita was very fluent in English and extremely knowledgeable. He kindly explained everything to us and gave us some great recommendations. The taxi ride was a great plus, as it allowed us to visit the geisha district as well.

The large bus was very comfortable. The itinerary was a slow-paced activity, but with many small stops, the time at each location felt compressed. It might be better to allocate more time for the morning market. The tour guide's explanations could be improved by appropriately switching between Japanese and Chinese, allowing for a deeper understanding of the destinations and more extensive introductions, which would enrich the experience. The best part of this trip was that the Noto Peninsula, in an effort to promote tourism, provided each person with a 4,000 yen voucher to spend, which was fantastic. This tour also thoughtfully provided lunch.

We are very grateful to the tour group for still running the tour even though it was just my wife and me! Throughout the trip, our guides, Liam and Michael, diligently shared information about the attractions and helped us take photos! They also allowed us to experience the beautiful natural scenery of Kurobe Gorge and the unforgettable Shomyo Falls! We hope to have the opportunity to visit various historical sites and natural landscapes with the guides again in the future!

The accompanying tour guide was very attentive and provided explanations throughout the journey. The only downside was that the explanations were in Japanese, which I couldn't understand at all. However, the pick-up and drop-off times were clearly marked, so it wasn't inconvenient, and we had a very generous stopover time of over four hours to fully enjoy the experience. Highly recommended.
