Reviews

“Super worth it—especially in the Tohoku region where getting around takes effort. We visited Dai Kannon, Yamadera, and Ginzan Onsen. It was all perfectly timed.”

“We had a friendly local driver who spoke basic English and Mandarin. He made the whole experience so easy. The service before and during the trip was excellent.”

“Fox Village was a highlight! The foxes are adorable but follow the rules—feeding is only in designated areas. Everything ran smoothly, including an afternoon visit to temples near Songdo Island.”
