Passeios por Ashikaga Flower Park

Our guide/driver Mr. Yamamura is very accommodating, pleasant and spot on! He even suggested adjustments to the itinerary due to rain.

I booked this private car ride for a day trip to Ibaraki and customized my own itinerary. We went to Hitachi Seaside Park, then had lunch at Nakaminato Fish Market, and finally visited the world's largest standing Buddha at Ushiku Daibutsu. The itinerary wasn't packed, but because the lunch queues were long everywhere at the market, we didn't have much time left at the temple. I would suggest grabbing lunch at Hitachi Seaside Park instead and skipping the market. The driver, Mr. Yamamura, was kind and friendly, arrived early at our hotel, and the ride was smooth and safe. I would recommend booking this if you want to travel to Ibaraki with family. This ride would be more relaxing than taking trains and buses.

Ashikaga flower park was absolutely beautiful! Totally worth going and I will book again if I come back. Our driver was great and accommodating, awesome communication through what’s app since we didn’t speak the language.

We were not able to catch the wisterias in full bloom anymore but the tour is great. The Nemophila flowers we got to see. So much to see, too little time. We started by 11am but we could hopefully start by 9am so that we would have more time in each location and not feel rushed. No time to eat properly. Took too many pictures. Will definetly go back!

Our tour guide, Ms. Anna, was very dedicated in her explanations and took care of every group member. Although it was raining when we arrived at the first attraction, Ashikaga Flower Park, which was a slight drawback, the beauty of the wisteria flowers was still stunning. At the second attraction, Hitachi Seaside Park, the vast expanse of nemophila flowers was refreshing, and the colorful tulips were also breathtaking. Finally, we visited the Mentaiko factory and bought some mentaiko products. This itinerary is highly recommended.

Our tour guide Juna was amazing the whole entire time — we really enjoyed her company. Hitachi was definitely not a disappointment and absolutely worth visiting. I’m a little sad because I came a bit late for the wisteria season, but nonetheless I still thoroughly enjoyed all the other beautiful flowers that were in bloom. Last but not least, our driver was so friendly the entire time as well. BOOK if you’re looking for a peaceful nature vibe — this is a MUST do!

Our tour guide, Zoe, was incredibly attentive and fluent in English, Japanese, Mandarin, and Cantonese! The day before the trip, she sent a thoughtful reminder with all the details, including bringing an umbrella in case of rain and a power bank since there wouldn't be charging on the bus. Thirty minutes before arriving at each attraction, she would explain the site to us in the car. Once we arrived, she was enthusiastic about helping us take photos and pointing out the best spots, as well as restaurants and souvenir shops. We are so grateful for Zoe's meticulous and thoughtful arrangements behind the scenes, which made this trip so smooth! I've been on many local tours, and Zoe's arrangements were the most seamless. Although the nemophila and wisteria weren't at their best, we still enjoyed camellias, yellow wisteria, and a beautiful rose garden 🌹. Thank you, Zoe, for your dedication and hard work, which made this such a wonderful flower-viewing trip.

It was a great tour. We had enough time to see all the important sights and buy some souvenirs. Our guide Zoe was very nice and organized, and as she speaks many languages fluently, it was easy and interesting to listen to her stories. Thank you Zoe for the wonderful trip ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

Great tour if you'd like to visit 2 flower parks in one day + a coastal Shinto shrine. Hitachi Seaside Park is vast, and the nemophilia field is magical. Ashikaga Flower Park is full of colorful roses. Our guide was very helpful and educational.
