Sendai

It's just a short bus ride away! The student package is cheap and close, so I hope they continue this package forever ^_^ It's very empty on weekdays and it's easy to slip ^_^ (Your poor skills are obvious, but even if you fall, it's no trouble lol) It's easy for tourists to participate, so it's very helpful!

Thanks to Ashley, our trilingual guide, for leading us to the legendary Spirited Away scene and even encountering a blizzard, which added a unique touch to Ginzan Onsen. We also appreciate the driver's professionalism in taking us back to Sendai Station on time.

I watched four shows: the sardine aquarium show, the sea lion show, the dolphin show, and the penguin show. I thought they were great. There were also various other aquariums where you could observe fish and other small animals, but the seats were a bit far away.

I was the only Taiwanese on the bus; everyone else was Japanese, which made for a unique experience. Since most of our time was spent on the bus, even on the "Snow Monster" train, we had to make the most of our breaks to pee. Also, there aren't many places to visit in Okari-da Onsen, and some shops were closed. It might be helpful to plan ahead and decide what to eat, as meals aren't provided. Additionally, the booking dates for the itinerary aren't synchronized with Japan's schedule. If you're planning to come next year, you should check online for information about the "Snow Monster" train at Sumikawa Ski Resort to find out when KKDAY will reopen the tour.

Bringing children can save a lot of travel time. The driver is very smooth and punctual. If you are a middle school student, remember to bring your student ID to get the student discount (Taiwanese student IDs are also accepted). Sendai Izumi Ski Resort is great!

The meeting point was very convenient, the tour guide was very responsible and attentive, the driver was very skilled, the itinerary was very smooth, plentiful and wonderful, a truly happy and enjoyable experience ❤️❤️
