Saitama Prefecture Day trips

wow! this trip was definitely value for money. The one night accommodation is the highlight of the trip! The travel agency gave us a traditional Japanese room with tatami! in addition, the dinner was fantastic and the breakfast was sumptuous! not to mention about the free to use Onsen! PS: There is a Lawson near the hotel too. On other itinerary, the admission was free except for the fox village. Sammy the handsome German-Chinese tour guide was knowledgeable about the places that we were going and was also very patience with late comers. We enjoyed following his tour and hope we are able to join his tour in future! And pls expect to sit in the bus for hours because the journey from Tokyo to Sendai is long and on the 2nd day, pls eat more for breakfast because we didn’t eat until 6pm at the rest and relax station.

I took my parents on this tour and was lucky enough to have Mizki as our energetic guide. She shared a lot of relevant knowledge and interesting stories along the way, and even used her own little illustrations, which was so thoughtful. She went above and beyond to take care of everyone in the group. Her farewell speech was really touching. Thank you so much, Mizki! I hope we meet again someday ❤️

A day trip to Karuizawa offers a wonderful vacation vibe: Kumoba Pond's waters reflect the surrounding forest, and strolling along the wooden boardwalk of Harunire Terrace, enjoying coffee, desserts, and bread, is incredibly therapeutic. Karuizawa is worth planning an overnight stay next time. Tour guide Liu was friendly and professional, providing detailed explanations, covering everything from historical culture and customs to cuisine, making the overall experience perfect.

Very enjoyable and the pace is good even for elderly and kids. Guides are very helpful, tried to speak English to communicate. They help in taking pictures and let me borrow their personal powerbank. It's nice to explore Gunma-Kawagoe, other than Mt. Fuji. Peach picking was fun with very large ripe peaches during our trip.

just the winter illumination at ashikaga makes it totally worth it! it is a truly magical experience, perfect for all ages. for the hitachi seaside park, make sure you check the flowering status before going. unfortunately for us the flowers were mowed in preparation for the next season, but the park still offers sand dunes, grass fields, rock garden and an amusement park.

We joined the Garden of Light Illumination Show + Ibaraki Red Kochia Scoparia One-Day Tour and had a wonderful time! I was able to book our 11/19 tour just the day before (on 11/18), which was super convenient. Our tour guide, Leo, was absolutely amazing — friendly, knowledgeable, and shared great information about each stop throughout the day. While the red kochia season had ended a couple weeks before our visit, it was still really nice to explore Hitachi Seaside Park and enjoy the scenery. The highlight for us was definitely Ashikaga Flower Park — the illumination was stunning and truly magical! Highly recommend this tour for a fun and memorable day trip!

Excellent day tour and save the time on public transport. Arakurayama park, Mount Fuji Ropeway and Oshino Hakkai.

the night illumination view was good at the ashikaga park so it was worth it if not for the rain. the Hitachi park was abit disappointing as the flowers were not so striking.

its time consuming to go to places so far away from the city centre. its nice to have a tour bus with a tour guide to show you around! would be much better if we had more time in Kawagoe!
