The shop isn't very big, and when we arrived there were already 7-8 foreigners inquiring, so it was a bit crowded. Although we waited a while, the front desk was quite efficient. It was my first time interacting with the pigs in person, and the pigs were all very cute. The staff helped assign pigs, so basically everyone could interact with at least one pig. The staff also asked if we wanted to pay for a Polaroid photo. Since it was a rare opportunity to experience this, we definitely had to take one. You can get an instant discount by sharing the shop on Instagram or writing a review on Google. Additionally, drinks are self-service, so it's recommended to get your drink before sitting down, otherwise the piglets will fall asleep on your lap and won't be able to get up. Finally, I'd like to mention that although the experience was very enjoyable and unique, and the store explained the terms and conditions, saying that the piglets' safety was the top priority, we were a little worried that the store might be deliberately feeding the piglets very small portions to prevent them from urinating or defecating easily. Many of the piglets were very thin, almost skin and bones, and one or two of them even had small scabbed wounds. Also, the store's hours were in short bursts, and we were worried that the piglets didn't get enough rest and food. We hope that the store can truly treat the piglets well, instead of just using them as tools to make money and extract as much profit as possible.
Public transportation to Shanggaodi is relatively inconvenient and expensive, so booking this tour is the easiest, most convenient, and most economical option. Tour leader Amy is professional and considerate, making the whole experience very relaxing and comfortable. Highly recommended! 👍👍👍
1. If you want to enjoy the Upper Highlands, choose to stay 4 hours of the trip to take the A + B route is definitely enough, the scenery is beautiful, the trail is also very good to walk, and there is time to go to the souvenir shop on the side. People with poor leg strength can also choose routes A or B, and there is plenty of rest time. 2. Although the hot spring hotel stayed at night is relatively old, but the environment is clean, breakfast / dinner buffet options are also quite many, delicious, more unfortunately the environment oil smoke smell is heavier. 3. The next day to Kurobe Tateyama, the tour guide Ame arranged for us the next section of transportation time, as long as the agreed time to the fixed point can go to the next stop, the night before checking into the hotel also stopped supermarket so that we can prepare food for the mountain or evening dim sum, do not worry about running out of food. There is also a stop at a rest stop on the return trip to Nagoya Station, where you can get off to buy things and go to the toilet. In the car there will also be a brief explanation of the background of the place we headed to, and after getting off the car was very active in helping to take pictures. The only drawback was that the weather was relatively bad that day and I couldn't go down to walk on the snow wall, but the overall experience was great!
The scenery was beautiful, the price was reasonable, the tour leader, Xiao Wang, was very nice and helped take photos along the way. The drivers were all very kind and friendly.
The long journey was very comfortable, but some passengers talked very loudly.
