Reviews
I had such a wonderful time! The weather was beautiful, and our guide was so entertaining, which made for a great atmosphere. I'd love to book another tour with Kisoru-san, who was our guide this time! It was an experience I'd definitely like to repeat!
It’s so beautiful and relaxing! The guide Kisou was very knowledgeable and talkative. It was a wonderful afternoon today. The weather was sunny, but there was a breeze, it was warm but a little cool. Our family of three completed the entire journey without even realizing it, and it was worth the price.
The meeting place description in the order voucher sent to the customer is very easy to mislead the guest. The customer will not know that you have different suppliers and they have to judge by themselves whether to look at the text or the picture to find the meeting place. Because they are misled to the wrong meeting place and fail to arrive in time. When checking in, the customer is required to bear all the losses, and the customer service can only give some empty and unconstructive responses. It is highly not recommended to avoid more people stepping into the trap by mistake!
