Kitakanto Area
The Kitakanto Area, just north of Tokyo, offers a delightful mix of nature, history, and cultural treasures across Tochigi, Gunma, and Ibaraki prefectures. In Nikko, a UNESCO World Heritage site, travelers can marvel at the ornate Toshogu Shrine and explore the scenic beauty of Lake Chuzenji and Kegon Falls. Gunma invites relaxation with its famous Kusatsu Onsen, where soothing hot springs have drawn visitors for centuries.
Ibaraki adds modern charm with the futuristic Ushiku Daibutsu, one of the world’s tallest Buddha statues, and seasonal beauty at Hitachi Seaside Park. From spiritual landmarks to natural wonders, Kitakanto offers a perfect escape from the bustle of Tokyo.

Fantastic 5.0
they both were very professional, assisting us to further sharpen our skiing skills. Also, they were very thoughtful, helpful and conscientious, taking photos and videos of us all the through. thanks a million for their coaching.

Great 4.0
Bus left on time but the area for meet up was relatively hard to find for us. Next to keio plaza hotel. 4 stars for the experience because we were first-timers and had confusion with the rental process. Had to change our tickets for ski lift tickets, then go to the rental section to get a qr code and pay for rental. Slopes all closed except for A course (expert course) because it's super early in the season. Kids snow park also only starts from mid-late December. Otherwise, tour bus driver and tour staff were very friendly and everything was smooth. Package only includes coach bus transfer and ski lift.

It's a wonderful plum garden. The white, light pink, and dark pink plum blossoms were blooming beautifully. There are ticket booths near the parking lot and at the entrance, but they were quite crowded. I was glad I had purchased my ticket from Klook in the car on the way there, so I was able to enter immediately.

The guide Mila was kind to take pictures for us. We were lucky to have a good day on the tour to see Mount Fuji.

Very interesting visit. Despite my English not being excellent, I understood the explanations from our guide, Logan. Gion is a very beautiful place. I was delighted to learn so much about geishas.

It was a long ride to Ibaraki from Shinjuku for this tour, but it totally worth it . We visited the said places of interest and the Kochias from Hitachi seaside park is not to be missed. We are thankful that we have our guide, Gilbert, he is knowledgeable and manage the guests' expectations tactfully. Yes, it was a great day out in this tour!

This was such a beautiful day! I've been meaning to visit Ibaraki prefecture for a while and this was the perfect way to see several things at once at a relaxed pace. The fish market and shrine were even better than expected, I ate very well.

Joining this Klook day tour by tour bus allows you to visit three major attractions in Ibaraki Prefecture, which is very quick, convenient, and comfortable. Since the drive from Tokyo to Ibaraki Prefecture is more than 2 hours, there will be a stop at a highway rest area for tour members to use the restroom. The length of stay at the three attractions is reasonable, and the arrangement is very good. Especially in late October, you can see the brown-red Kochia scoparia at Hitachi Seaside Park, which is very delightful. Special thanks to Ms. Zheng, the tour guide, for her help. She knows Japanese, English, and Mandarin, and helped communicate with local vendors in Japanese at the Nakaminato Seafood Market. I highly recommend this day tour to everyone.
