During this trip, the accommodation stood out for its cleanliness and friendly service. I particularly enjoyed the variety and neatness of the meals at the on-site restaurant. However, I do recall that public transportation access was inconvenient, which was a bit of a downside.

I didn't receive the door code notification email before check-in. Luckily, a nearby business was willing to help contact the landlord, who was reached by a local phone call to open the door. It took half an hour to successfully check in. The bed was small; although two people could sleep in it, it was actually very cramped and difficult to turn over. Plus, there was no air conditioning in the room, making it a bit stuffy and hot.

We are so grateful to have 柳生导游 as our guide! She really went above and beyond throughout the entire trip.
We truly feel how passionate and enthusiastic she is about what she does. She explained everything so clearly and shared so many interesting details, tips and little recommendations along the way. It made the whole journey much more enjoyable and helped us understand and appreciate the places we visited so much more.
What really stood out was her genuine care for everyone in the group. She was attentive, approachable and always happy to help. It felt like we weren’t just following a tour itinerary, we were being taken care of by someone who genuinely wanted us to have a wonderful experience.
A big thank you as well to the tour company for preparing the thoughtful little gifts for us. Such a lovely touch and a beautiful way to end the experience!
Thank you 柳生导游 for making our trip so memorable. We truly appreciate all your effort, energy and passion. Highly recommended!

A well-designed itinerary that allows just enough time to enjoy each destination without feeling too rushed. Our wonderful guide James speak three languages including Chinese and English. He's very attentive and helpful. The lavender is already gone in late September but the other flowers are still in bloom. 100% recommended!

On August 25, 2026, we met at Exit 31 of Datong Station to join the 11:10 AM tour. We had the pleasure of having Hanna, a very elegant and knowledgeable tour guide, and Mr. Kasai, our driver. Hanna professionally explained the itinerary and provided excellent service throughout the trip. The advantage of departing a bit later was truly great, as we avoided large crowds and rush hour traffic on the way back. We didn't even have to wait in line for dinner. Although the journey was a bit long, it was well worth it for the beautiful scenery. We visited the Blue Pond, the Herb Garden (shopping for lavender products), Shikisai-no-Oka, Farm Tomita, a melon farm, and enjoyed the illuminated Ningle Terrace at Furano Prince Hotel (a nighttime activity). We returned at 9 PM.

had a fantastic day trip with Lisa and her colleague! The day was much better than it looked online and i thoroughly enjoyed it! The flower farms and blue pond were gorgeous and at each stop, Lisa was extremely informative. I chose the non buffet and so i got to choose a meal from the restaurant which was great. They even had a curry labelled vegan. Lisa recommended to try the white corn and the melon and bith were delicious. i would definitely recommend
