Dingen om te doen in Yamagata Prefecture

This was a well organized and enjoyable tour. Even with poor weather, Ginzan onsen is beautiful. There was enough time at each spot. Explainations in English were given in simple, auto translated texts through LINE. It is understandable, as the English speaking guests were a minority on the tour, but it is worth noting that the guide does not speak any English

The weather was poor all the way from Sendai, but upon reaching Mt. Zao, the area was wide open and a strong gust of wind blew the clouds away, revealing the "Zao Okama" crater lake! I was fortunate to witness this ever-changing crater lake with my own eyes. Driving further to the Zao Ropeway, although many autumn leaves had already fallen, the desolate yet magnificent scenery was still unforgettable! Lunch featured regional snacks from Yamagata Prefecture, and right across the restaurant was a large supermarket where we could quickly buy seasonal fruits—how wonderful! Arriving at Ginza Onsen required transferring to a shuttle bus, which certainly squeezed our staying time. As it was getting dark, some of the inns had already lit up their warm lights, making for quite lovely photographs! The tour guide, Ms. Yangliu, was always thoughtful in reminding everyone of the meeting times, explaining the features of the attractions in detail, and even reminding us where we could grab a bite before returning to Sendai. Her service attitude was extremely warm and professional!

Handige hotelshuttle binnen 2 km van het JR-station van Sendai. Geen uitgebreide rondleiding, gewoon een comfortabele 9-persoonsbus die we met anderen delen. Let op de e-mail met het reisschema die de avond van tevoren wordt verzonden, waarin staat hoe laat je bij de opstapplaats moet zijn. Het wordt aanbevolen om ruim op tijd naar beneden te gaan en te wachten. De volgende kosten zijn niet inbegrepen: toegangsbewijs voor het vossevere dorp (middelbare scholieren en ouder = 1500 yen / jonger = gratis), maaltijdkosten voor Handen Shiroishi Umen bij Koan. We arriveerden om te wachten voordat de Umen-zaak open ging, met in totaal zo'n 15 personen in twee busjes. Nadat de deuren opgingen, kostte het al 17 minuten om te gaan zitten en te bestellen, en toen het eten eenmaal werd geserveerd, was er nog maar 15 minuten over tot de verzameltijd. Zo lang wachten op je eten en dan haastig moeten eten... hoewel de bus op je wacht, is het erg stressvol.

The 2-day trip to Ginzan Onsen was an absolute 10/10! I strongly recommend staying overnight; the night view is truly breathtaking, making you feel like you've stepped right into the fairytale world of Spirited Away. The pace of the itinerary was very comfortable, with no rushed sightseeing. Staying at a ryokan, we enjoyed authentic Japanese meals for breakfast and dinner, and the hot spring water was of excellent quality—soaking in it left our whole bodies wonderfully warm. Strolling through the historic hot spring street during the day, watching the antique lamps light up at dusk, and experiencing the quiet, crowd-free town in the early morning made for amazing photos. The entire arrangement was smooth, worry-free, and effortless. It was an unforgettable trip, and I'd love to visit again next time!

our driver, Wei, is very enthusiastic and friendly. overall, this day trip is of low value, the fox village was small and boring. the noodle place was closed. it was crowded on the ginzan onsen shuttle bus and the place was small. the driving roads was not smooth and most of the time were spent on driving.

Hoewel we er niet in de winter waren, was het toch erg mooi. De algehele sfeer is zeer rustig en er zijn flink wat toeristen. Voor reizigers die willen baden in de warmwaterbronnen is het aan te raden om een eigen handdoek mee te nemen om de voeten af te drogen. Heerlijk ontspannen langs de rivier en genieten van het uitzicht is een geweldige ervaring~

Deelnam aan een kleine privétour en het omzetten naar een privéchartertour was erg handig en ontspannen. De ophaallocatie was duidelijk. De dienstregeling was precies goed. Gids Emily gaf gedetailleerde uitleg, raadde allerlei lokale gerechten aan en hielp zelfs met foto's maken. De chauffeur reed stabiel. Zeer tevreden over de service. Volgende keer boeken we weer via Klook.
