Ito County

Formidabel og meget velorganiseret guide, fuldstændig information om de forskellige steder og oversat til flere sprog. Som en ekstra lille gave: en snack bestående af en lokal type mochi og te. En mindeværdig oplevelse med vegansk frokost på Teracafe Seikeiin! Okunoin-kirkegården og -templet er så fredfyldt, og om efteråret med de røde og gule blade er det et absolut must. Jeg kan varmt anbefale denne udflugt, da den respekterer stedet, og der er ikke de samme folkemængder som i byen.

The experience was wonderful, and the schedule was well-organized. The vegetarian set meal at Jojak-in Temple was delicious, but please note that if you want to try it, you should go as early as possible; otherwise, you might not have time to eat due to long lines. If you choose to dine at this attraction, the time left for sightseeing becomes very tight, so if you want to thoroughly explore, you have to skip the meal—you can't have your cake and eat it too. However, the food is also delicious, making it an integral part of the experience, so you can weigh your options. Since it was peak maple leaf season, there were quite a few people even on a weekday. The scenery was stunning, the lighting was perfect for photography, and our driver-guide was polite, courteous, and provided thorough service and introductions. It is quite cold on the mountain, so be sure to bring a warm jacket, especially around Okoin, where the temperature difference compared to the city center is significant.

Vi havde en fantastisk tid med vores chauffør, Sam; han var meget respektfuld, imødekommende og tålmodig. Han anbefalede os også et godt sted at spise. Da vi kom til Nachi Falls, regnede det, og han havde paraplyer klar til os. Hans positive og glade indstilling gjorde turen helt speciel.
