Saitama Prefecture Ture

since the place is far from Tokyo most of the time was taken in the journey. However, The journey itself is very peaceful and scenic. The guide has given the instructions clearly and has been very helpful throughout the trip. major highlights are the Hoshino resorts and clock tower. We couldn't go to shrine,as we reached there after the closing time due to traffic. However there's a museum very near to clock tower that highlights the festival there. It was just 100 yen ticket to enter yet totally worth the experience.

Tak til guide Liu for dagens rundvisning. Du er altid så betænksom og giver alle den hjælp, de har brug for. Vejret var desværre ikke med os i dag, så vi kunne ikke besøge Yunbaishi, men jeg var virkelig glad for Koedo på hjemturen 🥰. Jeg håber, jeg kan besøge det igen næste gang.

Since my two-year-old nephew wanted to visit the Anpanman Children's Museum in Yokohama during our trip to Japan, we hired a private car for the day to avoid the hassle of public transportation. This allowed us to go to Yokohama and then make a stop at the Fujiko F. Fujio Museum on our way back to central Tokyo. Our driver, Master Zhang, was incredibly professional and punctual, and we're very grateful for his patience with our constantly noisy child in the car. We will definitely book his private car service again for our next family trip!

Vi var yderst tilfredse med vores Kawagoe-tur, som vi bookede gennem Klook denne gang! Chaufføren var utrolig præcis med tiden, og tidsplanen blev fuldstændig overholdt uden forsinkelser. Under hele forløbet var servicen i top, og chaufføren var meget venlig, høflig og kørte både stabilt og sikkert. Det gav os mulighed for bare at slappe af og rigtig nyde den retro atmosfære i det lille Edo-område, Kawagoe. Kan varmt anbefales til alle!

Jeg kan varmt anbefale Zhang Yanjin! Denne dagstur til Kyoto, Arashiyama bambusskov, Gioji-templet, Kifune-helligdommen og Sanzen-in-templet var en fantastisk oplevelse, der var både afslappende og berigende. De forskellige seværdigheder ligger langt fra hinanden, og offentlig transport ville have været besværligt. Heldigvis havde Yanjin planlagt den optimale rute på forhånd, så tidsstyringen var perfekt – vi følte os hverken forhastede eller spildte tid på at vente, og der var rigelig tid til at tage billeder og udforske hvert sted i ro og mag. Ved Sanzen-in-templet gav han en detaljeret forklaring af historien og viste os de små mosdækkede stenbuddhaer og haveanlægget. Ved Kifune-helligdommen lærte han os at prøve den særlige vandspådom og viste os de bedste steder at tage billeder af de vermillionfarvede trapper med lanterner. I Arashiyama bambusskov og Gioji-templet guidede han os uden om menneskemængderne og fandt stille hjørner, hvor vi kunne tage smukke billeder. Han delte også tips om lokale, mindre kendte spisesteder og hvordan man undgår turistfælder. Han er utrolig venlig og tålmodig, og han besvarede alle vores spørgsmål om ruter, fotografering og shopping detaljeret. Han kørte sikkert og forsigtigt og tog sig omsorgsfuldt af os under hele turen, uden at presse os eller have skjulte omkostninger. På én dag forbandt vi gamle templer i bjergene med bambusskovens hemmelige steder. Rejsen var afslappet og behagelig, og vi behøvede slet ikke at planlægge noget selv. Hvis du vil have en problemfri tur i Kyoto, kan jeg stærkt anbefale Zhang Yanjin. Jeg vil helt sikkert kontakte ham igen til min næste tur til Kansai!

We've joined the tour on 2nd May, and it was amazing. It's exactly the only two places we wanted to go and saved us a lot of time and traffic trouble. We got good luck to see the beautiful flowers. The Japanese tour guide was amazing, he was super funny, friendly, nice, helpful!! Everything was arranged very well. He even gave us a gift at the end of tour. The driver was amazing too, the car was very comfortable, all of us fell asleep. Overall I will highly recommend this tour to everyone!!

Skøn dag. Rejselederen var fantastisk, meget vidende og tålmodig med de ældre, der gik bagerst.

Our guide, Kanae, was friendly, knowledgeable, and considerate. When it was apparent that my wife and I were having mobility issues getting through the crowds of the Kawagoe Festival, she recognized our needs and found places for us to take many rest and beverage breaks. We recommend this tour and Kanae highly.

Our tour guide also served as the driver and was very responsible, ensuring everything was well-arranged. The tickets he purchased were for the first row, which was an excellent spot and great value for money. The hotel arranged in the middle of the trip was an old Japanese inn, providing a wonderful experience. The other two attractions were also fantastic; the hot springs would have been perfect if visited in winter. The itinerary design was very good. If I had to point out a flaw, it would be that the hotel we returned to after the Nebuta Festival was quite far. While the tourists weren't too tired, sleeping through the journey, the driver worked incredibly hard, driving for several hours late into the night. I suggest optimizing this part of the route.
