Tochigi

Perhaps because it was a Sunday, there was a long line at the ticket counter. Since I purchased my ticket here, I was able to get my ticket and enter immediately without any waiting. I was very grateful. It was a humid day with neither rain nor sunshine, and the "Crying Dragon" was roaring loudly. The stairs are quite steep, so athletic shoes and a drink are essential.

The coupon is incredibly useful! You can redeem it at the front desk for a special QR code, which adds an extra discount when you shop. Thumbs up! 👍

It's convenient and easy to use, but it doesn't have a QR code, so you have to go to the counter to exchange for a ticket.

It was my first time at Edo Village! There were so many interactive buildings and exhibits from the Edo period, and I'm disappointed I couldn't see everything 😭 There were also shows, but I only got to see one and I'm curious about the other works so I regret it 😭 There are souvenirs and food for sale, and even if you get tired there are plenty of places to rest and benches, so it's a comfortable place to spend time! The toilets were also relatively clean, and each stall had a cleaner, which was nice.

It's incredibly convenient to pick you up and drop you off at Disneyland on your birthday, and you can get there comfortably without having to squeeze onto the subway – it's fantastic!

This trip was made possible by choosing a chartered car service; the entire experience exceeded expectations! The chartered car tour was fantastic! The driver was punctual, reliable, friendly, and a first-rate driver, so there was absolutely no worry about getting lost or getting stuck in traffic. The car was clean and the seats were comfortable. The itinerary was flexible, allowing us to rest whenever we got tired, truly enjoying a vacation! The car was clean and spacious, with powerful air conditioning, so even on long journeys, we weren't fatigued. The itinerary was well-planned and followed our pace perfectly, so we didn't have to rush and had a very relaxing time. It was excellent value for money!

Karuizawa is quite a long drive, taking almost 6 hours round trip. I recommend staying overnight in Karuizawa so your trip won't be too rushed. Unfortunately, we encountered a wedding at the Kogen Chapel and Stone Chapel and couldn't go inside, which was a real shame. I suggest avoiding weekdays as the chapels are less active!

I bought a 5-day pass and stayed in Sendai for 3 days, starting from the last day. The Matsushima ferry ticket, grilled oysters, and grilled fish rice cake boat are must-dos.

Every time I go to Tokyo, I use the airport transfer service. It's a point-to-point service, so I don't have to drag my large luggage around and take public transportation to the airport. The car is always very clean and new, the driver is polite and will help me load my luggage into the vehicle. The ride is stable and reassuring. It's a trustworthy service, and I highly recommend using the airport transfer service.
