Ginzan Onsen tours

The driver was on time, polite, and the car was clean

@The trip was very pleasant ~ The 11 people in this group happened to be all from Hong Kong and Taiwan, and the tour guide spoke Chinese the whole time (a Japanese who speaks very good Chinese!) @The tour guide introduced many historical stories of Sendai throughout the trip, and I learned a lot. @Team members Because everyone gathered quickly and cooperated well, we arrived early and had more time to stay at the attractions. @Sendai Station to Fox Village is about a 40-minute drive, with a stop at a rest stop with a souvenir shop to use the toilet. The Fox Village got a limited edition fox cub in May, so cute! In fact, the taste is not as strong as I imagined (fox smell) ~ @Fox Village is about 20 minutes away from the lunch location. It is really a high-end restaurant and the food is delicious 😋 @The restaurant is about a 2-hour drive from Yinshan Hot Spring, and we stopped at a rest stop in the middle to go to the toilet. @Will stop at Taisho Romantic Hall to change to the shuttle bus, the ride takes about 5 minutes to Ginzan Hot Spring. @The hot spring street is not big. If you are fast, you can walk around it twice in 30 minutes and take a foot bath in 1 hour. The tofu recommended by the tour guide is only sold in Ginzan Hot Spring, and it is delicious! Other souvenirs and curry bread are sold at Taisho Romance House. The ice cream at Taisho Romance House is also delicious~ @The tour guide had booked the shuttle bus for the return trip, so we got a seat on the bus when the gathering time arrived (we squeezed into the shuttle bus with his group, and there were 41 people in the whole bus). @Because we arrived early, there was a small traffic jam on the way back to Sendai due to an accident, but we still arrived at 6:15. @I really recommend this one-day tour. I was worried at first, so I wrote to the HIS company and they responded super quickly! (I asked Klook customer service but they didn’t help me, so I wrote to HIS company myself)

They helped me buy the Zao Juhyo Cable Car tickets in advance. Since I only bought the afternoon tickets, my itinerary had to be changed. I went to Ginzan Onsen in the morning and didn't have to wait long for the shuttle bus. We arrived at the tree ice in the afternoon. The temperature on the mountain was only minus 10.5 degrees. The whole day's trip was smooth and we were very satisfied.

The pickup was a bit confusing as there were a few buses and no sign. The guide arrived later than most of us. However, we were lucky to have considerably punctual group. Ittn was ok. The hotel we stayed at was not bad (+ point with the in room massage available).

This itinerary includes two places, namely Ginzan Hot Spring and Naruko Gorge. It just so happens that this is the time when the maple leaves are turning red in the Northeast. You will definitely not be disappointed. This is especially true for the small Ginzan Hot Spring.

We had a lot of fun picking fruits, but we had to wait for the shuttle bus to Ginzan Hot Spring, so we had less time to stay in Ginzan Hot Spring. The tour guide Ms Angie led us very well, taught us to pick some good varieties of cherries, and introduced us to other itineraries. The car was also very comfortable and clean, and the driver was very kind. We all had a lot of fun.

we went on this private tour on April 12 and it was the best decision ever. there was only 5 of us including Ms Bing the tour guide and it was seriously so much fun. because it was a small group everything felt so personalized and we had many great conversations about our lives, special shoutout to the couple we met (Adrian)! we had lots of time to visit fox village and ginzan onsen and Ms Bing pretty much accompanied us the whole way through. she was super thoughtful and brought us to a special lunch spot before we went to Ginzan onsen - the hospitality at that family run restaurant was so memorable, food was also amazing, get the soba! anywho overall I reccomend this tour because smaller tours, you have more control of the time and it’s just more fun! the mini bus was also very comfy!!

This is an off-the-beaten-path tour. Our group of three plus two people from Hong Kong made for a total of five, just enough to start the tour. It was a significant part of our trip to the Tohoku region. Our tour leader and driver, Mr. Chen (also the owner of the travel agency), was great at communicating. Despite heavy rain and road work that day, everything went smoothly. Yamadera Temple is an important temple not only in Yamagata Prefecture but also in the entire Tohoku region. Climbing the stairs, you can feel its extraordinary atmosphere. It's not as high as I imagined, so the climb was relatively easy. We arrived at Ginzan Onsen during a heavy rain. After walking around, we went to a restaurant to rest and take shelter from the rain. The service and the quality of the drinks were not as good as in other regions, which is something that can happen in tourist attractions anywhere, where the standards can vary.
