The tour ran from 4:30 AM to 9:30 PM, but I was able to get some sleep during the 1-2 hour travel times between each spot on the bus. Far from being tired, I actually felt refreshed. The driver and guide was Japanese, and their excellent driving made the tour very reassuring. They provided sandwiches, apples, and potato chips for lunch, and it was great that we could buy plenty of drinks, snacks, and food at the gas station breaks every two hours. Every spot offered breathtaking views, sights you might only see once in a lifetime. I definitely recommend joining this tour! Although it was a long day, it flew by without me even noticing.
