Things to do in Niigata

coach steve was great and everything is well planned. our experience was super fun can’t wait to go back.

Thank you to our tour driver, Win🙏, for taking such good care of us! The "Fukiware no Taki Falls" are a very special natural waterfall with spectacular water flow. Although the weather was hot, it was cool near the falls, and we enjoyed a leisurely stroll alongside them. At "Harada Farm," it was our first time picking peaches 🍑, which was a lot of fun. The peaches were big, pink, and very cute 😍. Win also carefully helped us find the bigger ones 🍑. We ate them back at the hotel, and they were very sweet and juicy! They're so expensive at the supermarket! There were also many local products and souvenirs to choose from at the farm, which you can't find in big cities. We bought a lot to cherish. The "Tamahara Lavender Park" lavender had just started to bloom, not quite as lush as the Tomita Farm in Hokkaido, but the sunflowers 🌻 were a delightful surprise, a sea of flowers that made for beautiful photos 📷. There was also a flower carpet, which reminded me of the flower fields of Hokkaido. Of course, we also had some lavender ice cream 🍦! The whole trip wasn't on a large bus, it was a small group tour, very relaxing, with plenty of time, and very well organized! Highly recommended 👍

Since it was a small group, there was no flag, and it was almost impossible to find our group among all the others when we arrived. On July 19th, we picked blueberries. Although it wasn't the peaches we were expecting, the blueberry picking experience was still great, but the 30-minute time limit for fruit picking was a bit short. The tour guide was fantastic! I forgot my power bank on the bus, and they even brought it to me afterward. I'm so grateful!
