Review for: 1-day tour (from Osaka)

I and my friends enjoyed this tour, specially the festivals. There were so much food and culture that we only see in animes. Festivals games, festival foods are the best! This tour makes it very convenient! We could only imagine the hows of going to tokushima from osaka. The lunch was also very similar to the photo.

Very convenient. It was worth the koney, definitely. Hopefully next time there will be new category if there are better seats even if higher price. Participants would be willing to pay. Would love to join again if given the right circumstances

When I decided on the itinerary at the beginning, I booked the Awa Dance bus one-day tour itinerary on Klook (in addition, there are only tickets for the Tokushima Awa Dance Festival, including auditorium seats). Departure from the News Building and provide Chinese food. Chinese food 1200 Enjoy fish fillet shabu-shabu at the Awaji Island Rest Station, take a break for shopping, then depart for Tokushima at 1330, arrive at the Awa Dance venue at 1500, and disband freely (eat dinner and buy raincoats) , 1730 Return to the venue to gather. The Awa Odori Festival started at 1800, and the sudden heavy rain continued in the middle. Will use a translator to let guests understand the situation

Signing up through klook is quick and easy. You will receive an email a few days before departure to reconfirm the meeting place and time. The Japanese tour guide can speak English or use a translator, so communication is not difficult. The lunch box tastes good. Although the journey is long, it will take 15 minutes. Stop to use the toilet and buy souvenirs or supplies; the performance is very beautiful, and being able to participate in this festival is truly unforgettable.

This itinerary includes a round-trip pick-up and drop-off tour bus. During the break on the way, we will have lunch on Awaji Island. When we arrive in Tokushima, there is still time before the opening time of the dance hall. At this time, we can go to the nearby scenery of Tokushima freely. 10 minutes before the concert starts Just enter the arena. In addition, you must abide by the assembly time required by the team leader, otherwise you will faint just looking for the bus boarding point. After all, the Awa Odori Festival starts, and tens of thousands of people squeeze into Tokushima in an instant.

Very convenient option for enjoying the Awa Odori festival without booking a hotel in Tokushima at an inflated price or having to drive there and back through all that traffic. The meal is delicious! The driver and tour guide are very punctual. It's cool that there's free time upon arrival before the event starts. I enjoyed about a good two hours of show before heading back to beat the traffic, and they dropped us off by Osaka Station.

Even at a large festival where many people gathered, we still arranged our itinerary and was very satisfied with our lunch. Better than expected. The price/performance ratio is very high and highly recommended. 😀

The overall experience this time was good, the tour guide was very kind, and the lunch on the bus was also delicious. However, because we were traveling back and forth on the same day, we could only participate in the first half of the Awa Odori Festival, which was a bit of a pity.
