Our tour guide, Xiao Guo, was very considerate of everyone. He introduced the relevant attractions along the way, asked how everyone felt, and helped take photos. We were lucky enough to encounter heavy snow on the first day, but for some reason, the itinerary for Takayama City and the Gassho-zukuri Village on the first day was switched. We went to the Gassho-zukuri Village in the afternoon, where there was more snow, which affected visibility, taking photos, and vehicle traffic. Although the tour guide said that he would give us more time on the second day, I chose this itinerary because I wanted to spend more time in Takayama and the Gassho-zukuri Village on the first day, rather than the second day. However, they may have had other considerations, after all, safety is the most important thing when traveling. Fortunately, it had snowed heavily. The next day, Kenrokuen Garden, which I had not expected to be so beautiful, was full of beautiful scenery. I was grateful for all the arrangements. The room was quite large and comfortable. The breakfast selection was not very large, but overall it was okay. I hope to report two things to the travel agency: (1) Since there were too many vehicles gathering at the same time when we checked in, it would be better to let everyone see where they should queue and which flag they should look for. Otherwise, asking one by one would be very confusing. (2) In addition, it is hoped that the system can be designed so that whoever pays first can select a parking space online, instead of having to go to the site to select and allocate a space.
Great ticket package. A must buy for someone travelling to/from Kanazawa area. Save me and my family about USD15/person
