Today, our family of three participated in the Lake Kawaguchi day trip, and our service leader today was the handsome young man, Li Ziqiang! He was really very attentive. The day before departure, my son received a message via Line and WeChat to ensure our meeting time and place. During the trip, he also provided very detailed introductions to photo opportunities and things to note at each scenic spot. He would take photos for the group members at each scenic spot and remind us of the meeting time! He provided explanations in both Chinese and English! He was truly excellent, and we are very grateful for his service! We recommend this day trip itinerary; it is very worthwhile! Mount Fuji is really super beautiful.
