    As expected, took us to all sights we were interested in. Bus stops were easy to find and frequency was good. The staff onboard were all very helpful.

    Good tour. Bit crowded but the guide made it easy. Learned a lot and got great pics. Watch your stuff around the deer—they’re sneaky.

    So glad I booked this! Met some really coool people and learned a lot. The village on stilts is so unique. Pro tip: Don’t skip the little bakery by the bay, best melon bread I’ve ever had.

    Wasn’t sure what to expect but this tour was a GEM. My boyfriend and I went for our anniversary trip and the views from Amanohashidate were literally EPIC. Cable car ride was a bit nerve-wracking for me but totally worth it for the pictures (btw, can’t take pics inside some of the shrines, so heads up). Would recommend for couples or families.
