The itinerary is worthwhile with multiple destinations. Our tour guide Allan Tan has made a very good job despite we are in a big group from different countries on the day. Clear instructions on gathering points and time have been given in both English and Chinese. Bus driver drove safe and steadily. Good choice for convenient if you are too busy to plan and arrange on Kamakura trip on your own.

The tour guide Carter San is fluent in English, Japanese and Mandarin. He was also very funny during the trip and sang songs for us. I also asked him for some travel advice. You can see the scenes in the comics, which is also worth going.

The itinerary was well arranged, especially the tour guide Allan was very professional, and smoothly arranged for more than 40 group members to transfer to the tram to Kamakura High School and Enoshima and other attractions 👍🏻 The atmosphere during the drive was very funny 👍🏻

This time, I took a one-day tour to Kamakura with my family. We saw the Great Buddha and rode the train. We also went to Enoshima to take some photos and had lunch. Unfortunately, my stay was too short. I can come back to enjoy the sunset next time.
