Otsu Turer

Min mann og jeg likte denne guidede dagsturen til Shiga veldig godt! Reiselederen vår, Effy, var svært kunnskapsrik og holdt oss oppdatert om reiseruten gjennom hele dagen. Bussen var ren og komfortabel, og sjåføren gjorde en flott jobb med kjøringen. Alle stedene vi besøkte var vakre og hadde flotte omgivelser. Vi anbefaler absolutt å ta denne turen som en del av Japan-reisen din.

Dette er en ærlig og rett-på-sak anmeldelse av tre av Shiga-prefekturets hovedattraksjoner (Shirahige-helligdommen, Biwako Terrace og La Collina Omihachiman). 1. Shirahige-helligdommen Kanskje fordi forventningene var høye, satt jeg igjen med en viss skuffelse. Den nedsenkede torii-porten ligger på den andre siden av veien, noe som gjør det farlig å krysse og vanskelig å få satt pris på den skikkelig siden man må se den på avstand. Helligdommen i seg selv har ikke så mye å by på, så den egner seg best som et raskt stopp på veien. 2. Biwako Terrace Dette var definitivt høydepunktet på turen. Panoramautsikten over Biwasjøen fra terassekafeen var helt fantastisk, og det å kunne nyte roen i det åpne landskapet ga meg den høyeste graden av tilfredshet. 3. La Collina Omihachiman Det var så mye folk at det var vanskelig å ta inn over seg den spesielle atmosfæren i eget tempo. Når det gjelder de populære dessertene, er smakene litt av en smaksak som deler vannene. Bygningene med gresstak og hageutsikten var imidlertid svært vakre, noe som gjør det til et flott sted for å ta bilder.

The day before the one-day tour, we received an email from our tour guide, Sun Jiaxue (Yuki), detailing the itinerary, important notes, meeting point, and contact information. Since there were about 20 people in our group, we traveled by large bus. At the start of the one-day tour and just before reaching our destination, our guide Yuki provided detailed explanations and important information. She also used Line to send reminders about the itinerary and pickup locations. Itinerary Stop 1: Miho Museum - I.M. Pei's Utopia. Anyone studying architecture must experience the master's architectural design and its integration with the environment. Lunch was at our own expense; the rice balls and Miho tofu at the ticket center's restaurant are worth trying. (Photos 1-3) Itinerary Stop 2: Hiyoshi Taisha Shrine on Mount Hiei - This is the head shrine for over 3,800 Hie, Hiyoshi, and Sanno shrines across Japan, known for monkeys serving as messengers of the gods. (Photo 4) Itinerary Stop 3: Shirahige Shrine and Water Torii Gate on Lake Biwa - A legendary spot said to be closest to the gods. (Photos 5-6) Many thanks to our tour guide Yuki and the driver for their excellent service on today's one-day tour. Our family of four had a truly enriching experience.

The Miho Museum is truly stunning. It's remarkable how much effort an organization can put into promoting and disseminating aesthetics, from collecting and displaying exhibits to constructing the museum itself. Visitors to this secluded mountain location will undoubtedly be awestruck and impressed by this architectural masterpiece that rose from nothing. The quaint Bamboo Forest Garden is charming and compact. According to the introduction, it was once a training dormitory for monks from Enryaku-ji Temple. Enjoying matcha while gazing at the garden is quite therapeutic and relaxing. Shirahige Shrine, especially on a clear day, offers beautiful photo opportunities, and its omamori (charms) are also lovely. After a full day of sightseeing, I actually felt incredibly relaxed and peaceful.

Vi hadde en flott tid i Himeji og Kobe! Atmosfæren var så fredelig… rolig, avslappet og harmonisk.

På denne Japan-turen bodde vi i Kyoto, og mannen min og jeg hadde lyst til å ta en tur til Biwasjøen. Siden det kan være upraktisk å reise på egen hånd, valgte vi en dagstur, noe som var svært praktisk og gjorde at vi slapp å bekymre oss for transport. Reiselederen kunne bytte mellom kinesisk, japansk og engelsk, og var svært profesjonell.

We had a wonderful experience with our private car charter in Kyoto! A special thank you to our driver, Aki, who was incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating throughout our very long day. The car was immaculately clean, luxurious, spacious, and extremely comfortable, which made traveling around Kyoto throughout the day so enjoyable. Aki never made us feel rushed and allowed us to truly enjoy each stop and take in the beauty of Kyoto. More than just transportation, Aki helped make our day an experience filled with wonderful memories that we will treasure from our visit to Japan. His kindness, patience, and professionalism made such a difference. We are incredibly grateful and would highly recommend this private car charter—and especially Aki—to anyone visiting Kyoto! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

The travel distance was a bit long, but the attraction itself was beautiful, making it well worth it. The cable car was a bit expensive, but still recommended. As for the tour guide, they were a bit disorganized; they actually lost a group member's cable car ticket and then went around asking if anyone had an extra. Their ticket management skills could definitely be improved.

Sherry, thank you so much for taking us to admire the beautiful scenery of Mount Fuji, experience the tranquility of Shuzenji Temple, and savor the exquisite cuisine at the onsen ryokan. Everything was made even more perfect by your meticulous arrangements. Thank you for giving us an unforgettable memory of Japan. We hope to have the opportunity to join another one of your tours in the future! 🇯🇵🗻✨ Tour Guide: Sherry was excellent 👍👍👍👍👍 Itinerary: Excellent Transportation: Excellent Attractions: Excellent Accommodation: Excellent, being able to enjoy the hot springs ♨️ was very comfortable
