Unazuki

I chose a tour group departing from Tokyo because I was visiting relatives there. Unexpectedly, out of the 43 people in the group, only my husband and I were Taiwanese; the rest were Japanese, and over 70% of them were over 60 years old. Whenever I spoke to them in English, they looked terrified. Fortunately, our tour leader, Shiomi-san, was very attentive and caring, allowing us, with our Japanese only at an N5 level, to successfully visit the Tateyama Kurobe Alpine Route, the Kurobe Gorge, and the Kamikochi Plateau.

Tateyama Kurobe two-day and one-night tour, including four meals, the meals are acceptable. However and the schedule is a bit rushed. And to change many modes of transportation. Hotel was quite nice, comfortable;clean

This trip includes most of the attractions in Tateyama Kurobe, and will not go to attractions such as Yakawa-go Takayama, for those who have been to other attractions before. The Shinkansen picks up the tour bus, so you don't have to bother with traffic all the way, and you have a guide, which is better than driving yourself. There were 2 groups to go, with the company and itinerary, almost 60 people, all Japanese, mainly middle-aged and elderly people. The guide will have to rely on Google translate to communicate the meeting time and place of each attraction. Overall, it was quite good. The weather was nice for 2 days. I was not in a hurry and could go there. The time for each attraction was reasonable, but the hotel was average.

It was easy to exchange my ticket for the miniature train at Unazuki Onsen Station. It's a very quiet onsen station. Before setting off, I even stopped for a rest at the foot bath in front of the station. The train ride was relaxing and enjoyable, with beautiful scenery along the way. I would definitely visit again next time.
