Our tour guide, Rex, was incredibly professional and thoughtful. Although most of the group were Chinese-speaking tourists, he seamlessly switched between languages to also cater to the English-speaking members. Throughout the trip, he provided fascinating historical backgrounds of each region. The overall trip time management was excellent, and we'd also like to thank our driver for the day for providing a safe and comfortable ride, bringing the entire journey to a perfect close. This was a truly wonderful experience!

Ine Funaya is definitely worth a visit. The sea is incredibly blue, and the ocean views are stunning. You can also take a boat tour and experience feeding the seagulls. There are many delicious food options around Amanohashidate, where you can savor local seafood dishes.

It was a great trip! I originally planned to take the JR train myself, but realized the return journey would be too rushed. So, I decided to join this one-day tour. Our guide, Akira, was very dedicated in his explanations, and the itinerary was well-planned. I would definitely join another one-day tour if I have the chance.

Ben, the tour guide, speak English and Mandarin pretty well. He sang Japanese songs in the bus, and explained the history or fun fact on the scenes. it’s started with self/explore in Ine Bay/Village, quiet yet beautiful. and then, feeding the seagull and eagles, after that the Amanohashidate cable car, recommend to take the chair ride, it’s safe and a unique way to enjoy Japan. you either can enjoy upstairs till the end, or went down sooner to see the beach or having meals

We were so fortunate to have Amy as our tour guide for this trip. She was incredibly dedicated and responsible, explaining the itinerary and attractions in both Chinese and English throughout the entire journey. Her commentary was witty, humorous, and very entertaining. She even prepared snacks and milk for us during the trip, concerned we might get hungry, and was very attentive to our needs. She was truly wonderful, making our trip to Japan an amazing experience! 🤩
