Musicbox Laboratory Kaimeiro tours

Allen (the tour guide) was brilliant. He was clear with instructions as well as giving some history of the places we were going to. He spoke in both Chinese and English to ensure all guests were attended for. Thank you for a brilliant day tour. We had a great time! A note for those booking, we choose not to go on the cruise which gave us 3 hours to spend exploring in Otaru. We had lunch; went to the glass museum and shops; checked out Miffy shop and snoopy cafe; had ice cream in Ryugetso. Co & picked up 2 pieces of cheesecake from LeTAO! I think those who had the river cruise meant they had less time to explore the town so it’s up to you what you’d like to choose🙂

Cape Kamui is really nice, too bad we got a not so good weather when we visited. It will be awesome if the sky is blue. For the cherry picking I opt out but if you're a big cherry eater you should join or if you like me, you can buy the picked one for 850yen around 15 cherry a box. Otaru is a nice city to shop and eat a lot of dessert, our guide Tou recommend the Kitakaro and It's super good. Very milky and creamy. We also came at the right time so we can saw the performance and the shiroi koibito park. Overall a nice trip and would recommend everyone to take this. PS. I hope Tou's head is okay, he hit his head a lot of time because of his height 🤣

Otaru is a very famous town and the historical origin of the canal, but the highlight of this trip is Kamui Gorge. The sight glass is really great, especially when the weather is good, the photos are beautiful. I highly recommend everyone to come and play. It takes about an hour to go back and forth to Shenwei Gorge, but if you have seniors, it may take a little longer because of the up and down climbs and downhills along the hills, but overall it is very comfortable😌 and you have to take the time to take photos, really It's spectacular. After that, we will go to the Shimabuyi Coast. Because there have been bears recently, we can’t go down to the bottom, which is a bit disappointing. We can only have lunch here and take a few photos before leaving. The tour guide recommends the sea urchin rice here, which is relatively It’s much cheaper, so tourists can try it. Later we went to Otaru Canal Town. If you like shopping, you will love it. There are many small shops. However, we don’t like shopping very much, so the wait was a bit long. I suggest you go to the Music Box Museum at the meeting point to take pictures. The lighting is beautiful. , there are also many music boxes to listen to, and overall they are highly recommended.

Linda was kind and down to business, she made it clear what times to get back on the bus so we would not miss it. Good hiking at the last stop where the Pagoda is. The lunch ranged from 2000-3500 yen, but coffee/soft drinks/refills were free.

We would like to commend our tour guide Allen for his excellent service today. He not only provided an informative and enjoyable tour but also kindly helped us take great photos and recommended delicious restaurants to try in Otaru. Also, our driver who drove us safely and smoothly throughout the journey, allowing us to relax and enjoy the beautiful scenery. Their professionalism and thoughtfulness made our trip truly memorable.

Our driver and tour guide, Mr zhou, is friendly and knowlegeable. He is able to provide info about the various places we visited.

I booked this trip in the hopes of seeing Mt Fuji, whilst I didn’t get to see it due to the clouds, the trip out away from Tokyo and the beautiful scenery was more than enough, I’ve rebooked it for my next trip to Tokyo
