Miyazu

The itinerary was well-planned, the transportation was comfortable, and the scenery at the overpass was beautiful. It was a pity the day was cloudy and overcast, but it didn't dampen our spirits. Our tour guide, Xiao Zhao, explained everything very clearly, frequently reminded us of things to pay attention to, and gave suggestions on souvenirs. He took excellent care of everyone, making it a very enjoyable trip. I highly recommend it.

The night before departure, we received a confirmation message from the tour leader, including the meeting point, map, and time. Throughout the trip, we received key messages (such as reminders of the meeting point and time to ensure everyone left on time). On the Ine Bay cruise, we received a video of the trip, which was quite unique. The weather was great that day, sunny but a bit chilly. Because it was a three-day holiday in Japan, it was quite crowded, especially the wait for the cable car, which reduced our sightseeing time and made the itinerary a bit rushed. We didn't even have time for lunch, so we had to eat at a convenience store. On the Ine Bay cruise, each person received a bag of shrimp chips to feed the birds, and we were told not to buy them ourselves. The tour leader was very professional, speaking three languages ​​(English, Chinese, and Japanese) in turn, ensuring we received detailed information. He even gave detailed advice on lunch options (both strategic and unwise choices), the location of the restrooms, and the location of the last trash can, which was very thoughtful. He also introduced history and local cuisine, and told jokes along the way, so listening to him was never boring. There were 48 participants that day, and he handled everything perfectly. He's truly an experienced and responsible tour leader, deserving 5 stars. Finally, the journey from Osaka to Amanohashidate and Ine is quite long, each leg taking about 3 hours by car. Luckily, the traffic was smooth that day, with no congestion.

First of all, the driver and tour guide were very friendly and spoke both Chinese and Japanese, which was very convenient. The attractions we visited were not crowded, and there were plenty of places to explore, eat, and have fun. We could take a cable car and a boat. Unfortunately, we didn't get to feed the seagulls at this time of year. We also took a train that passed the location of the train that walked in the sea in the movie Spirited Away, and there was a shrine that we could reach in a short walk. It was a very cost-effective tour.
