Sendai Tours

Trip diverted from originally planned Fox village to Yamadera temple, but it was fine. Ashley tour guide did a phenomenal job keeping the crew on time and explained in details on today trip. Thank you

I was very satisfied with today's full-day trip. Thank you to the driver, Wang Tao, for the pick-up and drop-off and for the great conversation in Chinese. Today was a good day, and we arrived safely and smoothly at Zao Fox Village. The hundreds of foxes were very cute. Next was Ginzan Onsen. The snow has mostly melted, but there's still a little bit of snow, and the scenery is beautiful. Three hours was plenty, and the timing of the shuttle bus was just right, very smooth. Heading home now.

Great day tour from Sendai Station. The bus was spacious, clean, comfortable, and had WiFi plus a tray for drinks and snacks. Driver and guide were punctual and professional. Our guide, Sanichi, really stood out. He speaks good English, is knowledgeable, and shared useful tips throughout the day. He also told us the inspiring story of Hamaguchi Goryo and the “Fire of Rice Sheaves,” with light jokes along the way that made the tour feel relaxed and welcoming. He helped take photos and gave great recommendations on what to see and eat. Zao Fox Village was fun and unique, with foxes up close. Feeding or hugging costs extra, and the guide helped with translation. Lunch was a simple but tasty noodle and tempura set. Ginzan Onsen was crowded and rainy, but well managed with clear instructions. Still worth visiting, as it’s very hard to reach by public transport. Overall, a fantastic day trip—the guide’s passion made all the difference.

Our experience with Lions travel for the Ginzan Onsen and Zao Ropeway tour was excellent. The service was well-organized and smooth from start to finish. The itinerary was clear, the meeting point was easy to find, and everything ran on time, which made the trip stress-free and enjoyable. The transportation was comfortable, and the guide was helpful and professional, making sure everyone felt safe and informed throughout the tour. Visiting Ginzan Onsen was a beautiful and relaxing experience, while the Zao Ropeway offered breathtaking views and an unforgettable ride up the mountain. Overall, booking this tour through Klook was a great decision. It saved us time and effort, and we were able to fully enjoy both destinations without any hassle. I highly recommend Klook for anyone looking for a convenient and well-managed tour experience in Japan.Together, Ginzan Onsen and the Zao Ropeway create a perfect balance of relaxation and adventure.

The overall trip was acceptable, and the vehicle was punctual in picking up and dropping off at the hotel, which was very convenient. The driver's driving skills were also very stable while driving on snowy roads. Lunch was at our own expense. We originally thought the itinerary had pre-ordered meals for us so we could eat immediately upon arrival, but after arriving at the restaurant entrance, we waited in line for a long time before we could order and eat on our own.

We participated on October 20th with a group of 7 people. Our tour guide was Ms. Wei, and we had a very new mid-sized bus. Our driver, Mr. Iwabuchi from Japan, was a very professional driver. In the morning, we took the Zao Ropeway, and in the afternoon, we went to Ginzan Onsen. There were scheduled restroom breaks along the way. Due to time constraints, lunch was changed to the Yamagata Prefectural Tourist Center, which was clearly explained in advance via e-mail, which was great. Also, Ms. Wei helped everyone order during lunch, providing excellent service. It was a wonderful day trip, and my family was very satisfied.

driver used Google Translate to communicate with us. And she expressed herself well and shown professional respect. very good.

Originally, the day tour required a minimum of three people, but because one of the members canceled, the guide didn't want to disappoint us, so they proceeded as planned, turning it into a private tour for just my husband and me. Although the only person accompanying us on the entire trip was a driver who only spoke Japanese, he enthusiastically translated everything for us, communicated with us using translation apps, and introduced us to many of Sendai's unique features. We are truly grateful to him! The fox village and Ginzan Onsen are worth a visit, and we are very fortunate that we chose this day tour and had a fulfilling and enjoyable day!

A very enriching experience, and the staff's attention was attentive and friendly at all times to guide you; recommended.
