Many travel agencies' Miyama Town itineraries meet at the same location at Kyoto Station, so you have to ask to avoid getting the wrong group. It's a pity this time. After a long ride, I didn't see snow at my destination. The snow lantern making activity was also cancelled. Fireworks were only held on weekends. The weather was not good that day. It was disappointing. I can only say that I was very unlucky. good.
Both adults and children can have a great time making snow lanterns and playing in the snow in the countryside. The tour guide is friendly and chatty, and introduces the scenic spots in detail along the way.
This event can only be seen for one week a year. Joining a tour group saves transportation problems, and the temporary vendors are also fun! Friends who don’t want to drive themselves or can’t book accommodation should give priority to buying.
It wasn't really a tour but a bus transportation to the place. We weren't lucky as it was raining and the snow has melt. We stayed for quite a while not doing anything. So instead we waited for a table at only 1 of the few restaurants that were open that day. Ate our early dinner and waited for time to pass. The tour guide was young and doesn't give instructions clearly. You're just drop from one place to the next. Upon going home, the bus suddenly stopped in a rest stop without the guide telling us that it was a toilet break or how many minutes are we allowed in the place.
A good experience, beautiful environment, and there will be more tourists because it is the Lighting Festival. It happened to be snowing. What a wonderful memory. I will go there again next time.
To be honest, before departure, I was attracted by a bunch of recommended beautiful photos and the snow scenery of the snow lantern gallery and igloo. It wasn’t until I went there in person that I discovered: First, there are not snow scenes to see every day. Second, there was no snow on the day of departure. , it rained wildly, and the climate was close to zero. It was not very enjoyable to be rained all the time. The pictures of the scenic spots were not good because of the cold wind and rain. My hands were so cold that they were shaking and I didn’t want to take pictures at all. Third, the milk of Miyama Town The ice cream has a strong milky taste and is not that delicious (maybe personal opinion). Fourth, there are not many restaurants in Miyama Town, but there are a lot of people, so you have to queue up. Half of the time is spent waiting in line for food, you don’t have to eat. , I went outside to enjoy the scenery and take photos, but when it was windy and rainy, I still had to go inside to keep warm and find food. Fifth, when entering Miyama Town, you have to walk on a mountain road ~ you have to walk on a mountain road ~ you have to walk on a mountain road. People who get motion sickness must pay attention to the above. This trip We spent fourteen days in Kyoto, and Miyama Town was ranked as the least worth visiting~
It was our first time to participate in a Klook one-day tour. The tour guide was very responsible and managed the time well, allowing us to have a pleasant trip to the beautiful mountain and snow lantern corridor.
The tour leader was very responsible and explained the itinerary and recommended shooting locations in detail. The transportation time was very good, there was no delay, and the space was comfortable! ! ! !
The overall feeling was good. The tour guide gave some tips and tried his best to help the group members enjoy what they needed as early as possible to avoid long queues. However, the time to stay in Miyama Town was a little shorter than the time indicated in the itinerary, leaving from 19:15 to 18 : 50. It would be better if you could provide a scheduled departure time of 1915
1. The tour guide is very serious: if the car is not parked and someone stands up first, it is not safe. They will give you a good reminder first. If you don’t listen, you will be angry. But based on safety considerations, I think it is okay; 2. Without snow, there will be no snow light gallery. It’s a pity. And it’s raining again. It’s super cold (but this is a problem of the weather. No one can blame it)
