Hakuba tours

We were very lucky with the weather. The views are amazing and it's a good price if you want to avoid the hassle of doing DIY. Me and my mom are the only english speaking part of the group but we didn't feel lost. Our guide was accomodating and gave us adequate time for pictures, especially in Kamikochi. The hotel is also a plus. It gives off cozy winter cabin, even if it's summer, it felt like a different season there - with the old winter olympics memorabilia at the walls. I especially liked the free onsen and the buffet with local specialties. It's delicious and refreshing after a day of hiking. This is one of, if not, my favorite group tour in Japan.

The itinerary itself is very simple, which is the section from Taisho Pond to Kappa Pond in Kamikochi, and the section from Ogizawa to Murododaira in Tateyama Kurobe. Because the transportation to these two places is not convenient, it is a good choice to entrust it to a travel agency. At night, I stayed at Kurobe Tourism Hotel. Although it is not new, it is very large and clean, with hot springs. Dinner is a buffet with sushi and crabs. It is a comfortable stay. The tour guide Anni is very kind. She didn't introduce the attractions much, but she actively helped with the needs, which was considered a complete success. It was a pity that I didn't see the snow wall in Tateyama Kurobe this time because of the strong wind, but the weather in Kamikochi and Murododaira was good, and I am very grateful. 2025/5/29.30

It was supposed to rain the night before the tour, so it was cloudy and cold enough to see our breath until late morning. However, thanks to our self-proclaimed weather fairy guide, Jeon Ara, we were able to see Mount Fuji on our way back to Tokyo. It was a breathtaking view after a long wait, making for a perfect end to our trip! I appreciated that Guide Jeon Ara adjusted the itinerary based on the weather and on-site conditions, rather than sticking to the planned order. She also gave great recommendations for delicious snacks at each location and provided accurate guidance and explanations. I realized that seeing Mount Fuji is more difficult than expected and requires a lot of luck (😅). Since the temperature is about 5 degrees colder than in downtown Tokyo, I think April would be a great time to visit, as the cherry blossoms will be in full bloom and the weather will be warmer throughout early, mid, and late April. 🌸

2025/12/28 This was my first trip to Fukuoka with my family. We bought a package tour and saw snow in Japan for the first time. We even had a small snowball fight. The tour guide said that the group the day before couldn't make it up because of the snow on the ground. We were lucky today. Although there wasn't much snow on the ground, it was still a great experience. The scenery in Itoshima was really beautiful, and the palm trees were lovely. We had a lot of fun on the swings, and it was a great place to take pictures. The Ichiran factory is also a great place for a walk. At lunchtime, the tour guide arranged for us to eat Ichiran ramen. I heard it was the main store, so we didn't have to wait in line, which was also a great treat. Finally, at Miyajidake Shrine, we enjoyed delicious food and watched the sunset, a perfect combination. So happy!

We had a wonderful experience on this day tour to Kusasenri Grassland (Kusasenrigahama) and Takachiho Gorge. Our tour guide, Daisy Wu, was very lovely and friendly. She speaks both English and Chinese fluently, which made communication very easy for everyone in the group. During each stop, she also recommended different local food spots for us to try, which was very helpful. Originally, our itinerary was supposed to include Aso Crater as well. However, due to a recent helicopter accident and the ongoing rescue operations, the crater area was temporarily closed. Daisy handled the situation very well and brought us to an alternative spot instead. Luckily, the weather today was very clear, so we were still able to see Aso Crater from Kusasenri Grassland, which made the experience even more special. Overall, this is a highly recommended day tour. Thank you for the lovely keychain souvenir, it’s a nice memory from the trip. Hope to join another tour with Daisy again in the future!

Had a great sunset tour with our guide, Logan, who is very informative about the Gion district and the history and happenings of a Geisha's life. No questions were left unanswered. Thoroughly enjoyed it, just wished it was warmer.

such a fun, cheap & great experience! very convenient as well. we met in Tokyo early in the morning but it’s a 2-3 hour bus ride from Tokyo to the first stop so you get to squeeze in a little nap on the way. Zoe was our tour guide and she spoke in both Chinese and English and was very friendly, knowledgeable and attentive! she told us that Mount Fuji is clear only 70-80 days out of the year and we were very fortunate to have a clear day on the 6th of March, 2026!

family of 2 adults & 1 toddler, we booked our Japan trip mainly for this and i must say, it’s worth it! we met up in JR Station Nagoya, the sign/flag tho is a bit small and if you’re not paying attention, you might miss it. Our bus had technical issue and had to transfer bus and got us delayed for more than an hour but no worries as we still enjoyed and had enough time to explore Kamikochi. i’m very happy we got to stay at Green Plaza Hotel, i was really eyeing for this resort. i saw some reviews that they stayed at a different hotel. altho i wish we couldve stayed longer there. place is really nice and food selection from buffet is really good. on day 2, we had enough time to explore tateyama. kudos to our guide because our group was always first in line and all transfers were smooth and hassle free. if theres one thing i would suggest, offer lunch box as there are limited options and too many tourist lining up to get food from few restaurants. but overall, will recommend this tour!
