Things to do in Ito

The tour guide and driver for this trip was Andy, and he managed the time very well. While he wasn't the type to enthusiastically introduce history and culture on the bus, his calm demeanor allowed me to quietly enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. As for the Izu sightseeing spots, whether it was the mountains or the coast, most of them were great, beautiful, and dependent on luck (weather). The only thing I wasn't so keen on was the tourist train. Most of the route goes through tunnels, and the time when beautiful sea views are visible from the window is actually quite short, so I personally don't think it's very worthwhile. If there's a next time, I wouldn't choose a tour with a tourist train. Sharing my experience for your reference!

we took a mini bus and the driver was really safe the entire ride, especially during the long jams of about 3hr in the morning and 4-5hr in the evening. unfortunately we werent able to visit the zoo and ito marine town due to the expected jam. but our time at the mountain and the ocean views more than made up for it. the drive along the coastal views were really scenic as well. and we were lucky to be able to spot mount fuji too!

Serina was our guide, she was very professional, attentive and helpful, she made us feel welcomed and being taken cared of! Even though we did not got to take the cable car due to strong wind, we did get a 1000 yen refund for it.Atami firework is a once in a life experience , i for sure won’t forget about it. I highly recommend this tour! My feet finally can take a little break from all the walking.

Choosing a private car to tour the Tokyo city area with family was definitely the right choice. The driver was steady and friendly, and could accommodate changes to the itinerary on the fly. The whole trip was very relaxed. I would definitely book again next time I come to Tokyo! 👍

Today’s weather was perfect for the trip. Our guide, Carter Sasaki, was really enthusiastic. We spent most of our time on the road as the distance to our destination was far, but he kept the atmosphere lively and was sharing about Japan culture. He helped to take good photos too. Wish we had more time to spend at Mt Omuro though. It was an amazing place with breathtaking views. It was definitely the highlight of this trip. Second was the beautiful Jogasaki Coast. The trip went smoothly and we managed to cover every spot planned in the itinerary.

Yoyo was our Tour Guide. We enjoyed the Scenary and fresh air. Unfortunately it was a long weekend so many locals also visited the Sites like Omuro and traffic was heavy to Omuro/ Ito City and back to Shinjuku. In general Yoko handled the situation and reminded tourist to be on time and assisted in making the tour experience smooth. Our Driver was an experienced Chinese man who knew the roads pretty well. He took short cuts to skip some roads with heavy traffic so we can get back to Shinjuku sooner than later. Thank you

had an amazing day exploring the Izu area, was a very eye opening experience travelling along the seaside roads, the driver/guide Andy was very experienced and helpful. He was an amazing driver and made sure we hit all the attractions and got us back to Tokyo early too. the highlight of the trip was the zoo and the kadowaki bridge. we had an amazing time taking photos along the coast. definitely more fun than your typical fuji 5th station tour trip.

Had a really fun day feeding the animals! Loved that we could pet the capybaras and feed so many of the animals, especially the red panda. The animal food is a bit overpriced, but understandable since it helps with the upkeep of the zoo. Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed the whole experience.

It was better than I expected. The Totoro exhibition was also great. I walked from Izu Kogen Station, but there were quite a few ups and downs, so it might be tough for those with weak legs. The signal was poor, and it took a long time for the ticket to appear.
