Coisas para fazer em Oirase Gorge

Mr. Fujii, our driver, was very conscientious and responsible, good at communication, and skilled in driving. He patiently shared information with us. The friends in our small group were also very harmonious and friendly. Mr. Fujii would carefully remind us about icy or deeply snow-covered roads, and fellow group members also helped each other. We were very lucky that when we arrived at Mount Hakkoda, there weren't many people, so the waiting time for the ropeway was very short. The scenery was indeed beautiful, and it was also very cold. The night before, it had been raining and sleeting in Aomori, and we had prepared for the possibility of the ropeway being closed and our itinerary changing. However, we were very fortunate to have a bright, sunny day the next day. During our Oirase Stream sightseeing, Mr. Fujii also used a translator to tell us the differences in the scenery under various conditions. Finally, catching a stunning sunset on the sleepy return journey was an unforgettable experience (he even made a heart shape with his hands when I asked him to, haha). Klook's one-day tours are truly high quality, and the coordination is very smooth. I have already purchased tours in both Japan and Korea, and all have been excellent and satisfying. Highly recommended.

This year's Spring Festival was in mid-to-late February, and there had been very little snowfall during my days in Aomori. Luckily, I booked a private car for February 19th to Hakkoda, Oirase Stream, and Lake Towada. As soon as we entered the mountains, a blizzard began. Although the cable car wasn't operating, we still had a solid day of fun playing in the powder snow! Who can understand the joy of powder snow! Mr. Fukuda is truly a wonderful and professional person. He is the most attentive, professional, and polite driver I have ever encountered during my many trips and private car bookings in Japan! Due to the blizzard, visibility in the mountains was very low, but his driving skills were excellent; I didn't feel any impact from the weather. He took us to check in at every scenic spot along the Oirase Stream, and during the blizzard, he waited by the car for us every time, opening and closing the doors! Thoughtful and meticulous! 100% positive review!

今までで最高の経験の一つでした！私たちのドライバー、牧田明宏さんは素晴らしかったです。私が参加した他の日帰りツアーとは異なり、彼は昼食と夕食の軽食に十分な時間を与えてくれました。散策するのに天気も最高でした。

It was a very enjoyable trip. Although we couldn't take the cable car due to the weather, walking along the Oirase Stream and Lake Towada truly left us feeling refreshed and invigorated!

I was fortunate enough to join this tour on the day with the best weather. Mount Hakkoda on a clear day is an absolutely stunning sight. Our Japanese driver, Mr. Yokoyama, was incredibly kind and friendly, and drove very safely. He even prepared snowball makers for us. At Oirase Stream, he used a snow shovel to clear a path for us so we could take photos safely. His service truly deserves 200 points. Please note that there can be long queues at Mount Hakkoda, and the driver will not purchase tickets on your behalf.

This was my first time booking a car on Klool, and I was a bit nervous when it said the driver was Japanese. To my surprise, the driver, Mr. Ozaki, was 73 years old and was already waiting for us at the hotel reception early in the morning. He drove very steadily throughout the journey and provided explanations along the way. Although the Hakkoda Ropeway was closed due to heavy snow, he took us to Oirase and Towada, helping us clear snow for photos, which was very thoughtful. Aomori in the heavy snow was absolutely beautiful!

Today's Klook itinerary is a one-day chartered tour to Hakkoda Mountain's snow monsters, Oirase Stream, and Lake Towada. The chartered car costs NT$17,000 for the day. Our driver is Mr. Narita. He waited for us at 8:30 AM at Aomori Station West Exit with a sign. Due to heavy snowfall in Aomori, many roads were closed, and driving in the snow was extremely difficult. Entrusting it to a professional local Japanese driver was the best choice. It proved to be well worth it; the winter photos of Oirase are breathtakingly beautiful. However, the Hakkoda Mountain snow monsters were a slight disappointment. Although the cable car, which had been closed for several days, was finally operating, visibility at the summit was poor, and the biting cold wind made it impossible to stay outdoors for more than five minutes. We had to give up on seeing the snow monsters.

During our trip, we encountered a heavy snowstorm in Aomori, and our original itinerary couldn't be followed due to road closures. Fortunately, the driver offered a new plan, allowing us to fully enjoy a wonderful journey even amidst the snowstorm.
