Review for: Departure from Meeting Point

Mitarai Valley is stunning. It took 2 hours for hiking. Due to heavy rain, we couldn’t visit the waterfall for safety sake. Menbudo Limestone Cave isn't large, but it's quite unique. Visitors should be careful of the wet and uneven steps. The guide, Mr. Li Jun, was talkative and responsible. It was a special experience.

Master Cai is an excellent driver, and the seats are comfortable! Since there were only four people in our group, the time management was flexible! Master Cai was very talkative and took great care of my mother and me!

My long-awaited trip to Tenkawa Village was amazing! The snow-covered Tenkawa Shrine and Tenkawa Village were truly beautiful. Unfortunately, due to icy roads and safety concerns, we couldn't continue to the hot spring town and Menfudo Limestone Cave. The tour guide took us to Asuka Village instead, which was a pleasant surprise. I'll definitely come back another time, in a different season.

The itinerary was full, fun, interesting, and the scenery was beautiful. The tour guide, Wang Weibing, was kind, serious, responsible, and provided attentive service. He even helped us get warm clothes from the bus, we are very grateful to him.

It's a newly developed attraction with a lot to see. The tour guide, Wang Weibing, is especially knowledgeable and provides enthusiastic service, making it a very satisfying experience.

The places visited are very beautiful and worthwhile; I enjoyed both the Mitterai Valley and the Menfudo Cave. However, the itinerary was very poorly organized: - 40 minutes for the Osaka Amakawa Shrine is excessive; 20 minutes is more than enough. - And 2 hours for the Mitterai Valley is also too much; 1 hour, or 1 and a half hours at most, is sufficient. - And 2 hours and 30 minutes, including lunch, is also very generous considering that the Menfudo Cave can be explored in 45 minutes. The places visited are worth it, but the timings should be adjusted, and at least one more stop should be added.
