What to expect
Mount Yoshino in Nara Prefecture is known as a top cherry blossom spot in Japan. In spring, there are 30,000 cherry blossom trees in full bloom on an unprecedented scale in the world. From ancient times to the present, "a thousand trees at a glance" expresses a place where you can see a thousand cherry trees at a glance. Mount Yoshino has the shape of a horse's back and is about 5 kilometers long from north to south. Cherry blossoms began to bloom in the low-elevation Shimobon area, and gradually the entire mountain was covered with cherry blossoms. In July 2004, the "Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes of Mt. Kii" including Mt. Yoshino were registered as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. The entire mountain of Mount Yoshino is regarded as a World Heritage Site
Reviews
Great tour! We were very fortunate that we are right in the middle of the Sakura season and got to see the beautiful blooms. There were many interesting shops selling food and souvenir all the way from the start, so save your stomach to try out all the different local food. Definitely worth going!
Going directly from Nagoya Station to the Yoshinoyama parking lot saves you the trouble of transportation. You can stop at a rest stop to use the restroom on the way back. The tour guide will explain the climbing route in the car. We were lucky enough to see the cherry blossoms in full bloom. It was a worthwhile trip.
the guide arrived at the designated meeting place on time. the tour is nice ang well oranized. thank you so much
Although it’s already mid-to-late April, you can still see some late cherry blossoms, which are super beautiful! The environment is also very beautiful, and the houses on both sides of the road are antique!
The accompanying staff were very friendly and responsible, and the driver drove steadily. Although the cherry blossoms in Yoshino Mountain have not yet bloomed, the shops and restaurants along the way are very good and it is a good place for a spring outing.
This time I happened to encounter the Yoshinoyama cherry blossoms in full bloom, and I was shocked to see a thousand books at a glance at Yoshimizu Shrine. The itinerary is planned appropriately and there will be rest stops in the middle for using the restroom and buying food.
The tour guide is kind and the itinerary is well arranged. There is enough time to walk around Qianben in Mount Yoshino. We happened to encounter cherry blossoms in full bloom, which were very beautiful.
The bus group met and everyone got off the bus at Shimosenbon, but there were no cherry blossoms at that time, so I had enough time to walk/hitchhike to Okusenbon. But the tour leader is very good. If a group member gets lost, the tour leader will look for him personally.
Our tour guide, Mr. Xi, was professional and patient. Excellent!
The itinerary is to take a 3.5-hour bus there for free activities and then take a 3.5-hour bus back. The tour guide, Shi Yulian, did not give a simple tour and was even late for the meeting. In addition to having a car ride, everything else was saved by the beautiful scenery of Mount Yoshino. No credit is given to the tour group.
