Things to do in Ito

We had a wonderful day trip exploring the culture and beautiful nature in the region just outside of Tokyo. Kousei was a very kind and helpful guide, and the bus ride itself was very scenic (we were lucky to have views of Mt Fuji each way!) Our only wish is that we could have spent more time at the two last stops, especially Kawazu, but our guide explained that there are laws limiting the time that bus drivers can work. We were glad we brought a lunch with us so we could maximize time exploring Shuzenji.

The scenery was beautiful, the itinerary was well-organized, and the driver provided great service—patient and good at sharing locations. It was a wonderful experience!

The tour guide and driver for this trip was Andy, and he managed the time very well. While he wasn't the type to enthusiastically introduce history and culture on the bus, his calm demeanor allowed me to quietly enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way. As for the Izu sightseeing spots, whether it was the mountains or the coast, most of them were great, beautiful, and dependent on luck (weather). The only thing I wasn't so keen on was the tourist train. Most of the route goes through tunnels, and the time when beautiful sea views are visible from the window is actually quite short, so I personally don't think it's very worthwhile. If there's a next time, I wouldn't choose a tour with a tourist train. Sharing my experience for your reference!

Participated in the Izu and Mount Omuro day trip on 8/2/2026. Although the weather was very cold, the tour guide, Mr. Long, was very careful and responsible throughout the entire trip. Giving a five-star rating! 👍

This is a less chosen destination, but Izu Peninsula is a really worthwhile visit. I could imagine Mt. Omuro will be more beautiful in spring and summer when its grass is green! Our guide Olivia made things extra special with her kindness, helpfulness, and extraordinary language skills. Til next time!

We had a great experience with our driver service. Our driver, Mochizuki, was prompt, punctual, friendly, and very professional. He communicated clearly and made everything easy for our family of nine. We really enjoyed our time in Kamakura without any stress. Highly recommend this service and would definitely use it again.

We had a wonderful experience on this tour, made even better by our excellent guide, Lin Chenxuan. He was punctual and well-prepared, which set a positive tone for the day. Lin was also warm, pleasant, and easy to talk to, making everyone feel comfortable and welcome. Throughout the tour, he was attentive and highly responsive to our requests, adjusting the pace and details to suit our group’s interests. Questions were answered clearly and patiently, and small thoughtful touches showed genuine care for our experience. Everything ran smoothly and stress-free, allowing us to fully enjoy each stop without feeling rushed. It was a well-organized, enjoyable tour, and the guide’s professionalism and friendly attitude truly made a difference. We would happily recommend this tour and guide to anyone looking for a reliable and enjoyable experience.

Serina is very thoughtful, always attentive to our needs, and meticulously arranges every aspect of the itinerary. Throughout the trip, she provided detailed explanations of the unique features of each attraction, which helped us better understand them. She managed the time very well, ensuring that we were neither rushed nor short on time to appreciate each attraction, and that we didn't miss any important sights, making the entire travel experience very pleasant and fulfilling.

Had a really fun day feeding the animals! Loved that we could pet the capybaras and feed so many of the animals, especially the red panda. The animal food is a bit overpriced, but understandable since it helps with the upkeep of the zoo. Overall, we had a great time and enjoyed the whole experience.
