i joined the tour because I was travelling by myself and was happy that I booked it! Our guide, Arlene, did a great job providing historical information of the places we visited, and was engaging. She was also well organized and made sure everyone was informed about the tour plan the night before our trip. Overall I had a great experience and would recommend!

The Nikko tour was well worth it for a day trip from Tokyo, with scenic views and a very rustic mountain vibe. Our guide, Ko, was knowledgeable and explained the history and culture of Japan and the sites we visited in a very succinct and informative manner. He was very accommodative to my last minute schedule changes where I had to leave the tour early and helped greatly in navigating all the sites to maximise my time and enjoyment.

Hello, Guide Kim Young-jun, thank you. I came on a trip from Korea and wanted to see Mount Fuji, so I took a day trip with you. Thanks to Guide Kim Young-jun's kind explanations and the consideration of the Korean and Chinese people, although I couldn't see Mount Fuji completely, I still got great photos at Oshino Hakkai thanks to your well-adjusted schedule. I went to Kamakura with GoGo yesterday, and I'm leaving for Nikko today. Guide Kim Young-jun, thank you again for giving me a happy time ^^

This was a well organized, fun and easy day tour. There were 37 participants on the bus, but it didn’t feel hectic at all. The pace was perfect. We arrived a little late for the peak leaf season, which would be in early November. Had a good time nonetheless. Plenty affordable options to choose from for lunch at the waterfall park.

The bus had nice big windows to see the landscape views. Throughout the tour the tour guides, Jeffery and Ashley, were very attentive. Ashley was able to explain the sites in 3 languages and recommended a great restaurant for lunch. Even though we got lost and delayed our departure time, the tour guides were able to reach us and redirect us to the bus in a timely manner. Shoutout to the bus driver for the smooth ride down the curvy mountain roads 👍

We were very lucky with the weather on this trip. All three attractions were great, especially the two parks.
The Kochia at Hitachi Seaside Park were turning red. They were round and swaying in the wind, which was very cute and healing.
The illumination show at Ashikaga Flower Park lived up to its reputation. The park put a lot of effort into creating a beautiful light display that resembled wisteria in full bloom. It was comparable to the wisteria in its prime, and there were scenic views everywhere in the park, with so much to see.
The itinerary was well-planned, and the tour guide explained the meeting times and locations very carefully. I was very satisfied with the trip and felt it was very worthwhile.
The only downside was the small seats on the minibus. I'm short, but I couldn't put my legs straight in front of me, so I had to sit at an angle. I was tired and uncomfortable after a day of that.
It's windy and cold at the Seaside Park, so I recommend that visitors prepare warm clothing.

We've taken 3 excursions through Klook, and on one of them, we were even forced to leave a positive review and take a photo proving we did it. In this case, I'm giving it 5 stars, and if I could, I'd give it 10. Jorge was a splendid guide; he speaks 5 languages. On top of that, he came around to each of us on the bus to talk about whatever we wanted. It was something I'd never seen before. In our case, we talked to him a bit about his life and the history of this temple. It's one of the most positive experiences I've ever had. Putting aside how great the guide is, Nikko is amazing, both the waterfall area and the temple. So far, it's the best I've seen in Japan.

In a word, this tour exceeded expectations. As a solo traveler, I was hesitant to rent a car, so I looked for other options and found this day trip. Despite the long distance, I was able to leisurely explore the highlights of Nikko. The final onsen experience was like a gift, perfect for relieving fatigue. I felt that it would have been good to extend the time, even if it meant shortening the time at Kegon Falls. Even though there were Taiwanese, American, and Korean travelers mixed together, the guide took care of each of us in our own languages, making it a completely comfortable trip. I would like to express my gratitude to guide Heo Mi-yeong. I would love to do this kind of trip again.

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! 👍
