Review for: [Year-round Route] Cat Station & Sandanbeki Route

We had a great experience in Wakayama with tour guide Tiger Zhao and bus driver(Eguchi). Here's what I think that contributed to the great tour: Tour guide Tiger: speaks and understands English very well and Chinese at a native level. Excellent subject matter knowledge of all the attractions and some matters above and beyond. Perfect time allocation and management. Did well in managing guest's problems as far as practical(such as guests traveling with young children and guests who sustained injuries during the trip (not in any way his fault). Bus driver Eguchi: safe and comfortable driving, and punctual in getting us to the destination. Polite, professional and courteous embodying the spirit of omotenashi that Japan is known for. Trip planning, attractions: it was a very good fix of things that Japan is known for. The kishi train station and rides were cute and quirky. The Shirahama onsen was beautiful and we got to eat very fresh seafood at the seafood market.

I give 5 star review for the tour guide. Our tour guide - Tiger did a good job in explaining and he is friendly.. Everything went smoothly and all the itinerary was covered . The only downside for this day tour is the transport , the seat is very cramp and the vehicle is dated . This activities suitable for children . We went for the trip on 24/2 . We decided to skip universal studio and to embark on this tour . Time for Sandanbeki is a bit limited as if you enter the cave you wont have enough time to explore around. We took a total of 5 day tour from Osaka .

Our tour guide, Mr. Tiger, was very organized and thoughtful. A day before the tour, he sent me a WhatsApp message with his contact number, photo, and the exact arrival time at the meeting place — which made it so much easier to find him on the day of the tour. Throughout the trip, Tiger shared interesting commentaries about each destination and gave practical tips, like where to eat and what local items to buy. He even went the extra mile by sending restaurant suggestions in Osaka via WhatsApp. All the places we visited on this tour were interesting and truly worth seeing! Time was managed efficiently, and everything went smoothly. I would love to join another tour with Tiger as our guide in the future!

Tiger is a great host, foremost is safety then having a great time. He provided interesting info on the places we visited, as well as expected duration for each activity. The Kishigawa Railway ride is most interesting as it's a preserved railway, Tore Tore Ichiba seafood market provided access to great meals, and visits to Senjojiki and Sandanbeki were great photo opportunities of the sea.

Our tour guide, Tiger 🐅, was gracious to us despite being the only English speaking tourist in a bus full of Chinese speaking tourists 😂. He made sure that everyone is there whenever we have to depart. I'm giving quality of transfer a 4 despite it being a 5 most of the time is because we only had 6 minutes to appreciate Wakayama Kishi Station (Nitama and buy souvenir at that time) until the train arrived. 😭 Also we weren't able to board the Tama Densha because it's the railway company that decides which train is going to operate at a certain time; and that can't be helped. 🤷‍♀️ 10/10 would recommend this if you don't mind timed sight seeing tour. 👍

A fantastic trip with a great balance of nature, culture, and relaxation, just shy of perfect. This tour of Wakayama and Shirahama offers a wonderful escape from the hustle and bustle of Japan's major cities. It's a well-rounded itinerary that combines the historical charm of Wakayama City with the natural beauty and resort-style relaxation of Shirahama. The tour delivered on its promise of a varied and memorable experience, with just a few minor points keeping it from a full five-star rating.

I highly recommend Director Chao Yung-Sheng (Zhao Yong Sheng). Throughout the trip, he meticulously explained the details of each attraction: introducing the legend of the cat stationmaster at Kishi Station, providing a general overview and food guide to the Nanki Shirahama Seafood Market, explaining the origin of the Senjojiki rock formations... He was incredibly knowledgeable. Listening to Director Chao's explanations and witnessing the beauty of Wakayama filled our minds with knowledge and greatly satisfied our souls. As the trip was coming to an end, Director Chao thoughtfully introduced us to local Osaka cuisine and kindly sent us all the store information on Line. He's truly a super responsible and heartwarming guide! By the way, I highly recommend Shirahama Onsen, one of the three ancient hot springs. If you have the opportunity, be sure to take a dip!

Our guide Wenhua/Andy had a great personality and was an amazing guide. He tried his best to get everyone to as many attractions as we can fit. The sights are hard to reach normally so definitely recommend checking them all out via the tour.
