Xiaoxian was a great tour guide; she was very caring and helpful. She recommended and introduced many worthwhile places to visit in Japan, including good food and shopping, explaining everything in detail. The whole trip was never boring; she was also very funny and would tell jokes to make the guests laugh. Overall, I was very satisfied with the trip.
It was a fantastic trip! Although there was a lot of travel time, under the guidance of our tour guide, Xiao Hong, we not only visited the attractions but also gained a deeper understanding of their backgrounds and stories (Xiao Hong explained everything in Chinese, English, and Korean). Luckily, we encountered the first snowfall at Cheongji Pond, which was absolutely beautiful! Thank you so much, Xiao Hong, for your meticulous guidance!
The green pond was incredibly beautiful, the penguins were amazing, the waterfall was in the distance with a hazy, dreamlike beauty, the car was small, there weren't many people, the heating was strong enough, but I couldn't sleep soundly.
The visit to Asahiyama Zoo is relatively short; if you want to see multiple animals, you can download a map and plan your route beforehand. The lunch restaurant takes a long time to prepare, and the food is just average; you can buy some food at the rest stop. The Blue Pond and Shirahige Falls are quite beautiful, and the scenery from the bus is also quite nice. Tour guide Yan is very nice; he provides explanations in Chinese, English, and Japanese and will even help you take photos.
