Aomori Private Car Tours

“Amazing experience!”

We wouldn't have been able to experience Aomori the way we did without TR Taxi's service, and our very friendly driver! We had a lot of long drives, and we're so thankful for the service

Thank you for your kind review. It’s great to hear you had a wonderful time in Aomori. A 9-hour tour is a full day, and we’re glad everything went smoothly. We’d be happy to assist you again anytime.

“Excellent service ”

Although the driver can not speak English, we can both use an translator app easily to communicate. He was very pomptual and polite as you would epect from their taxi drivers. You will adjust the location and time that you personally want. Highly recommended!

“A driver, then a friend - A day in Aomori we'll never forget”

If I could give Mr. Otani more than five stars, I would. He was assigned to us for our Aomori port day, and what was booked as a private car service turned into the single best day of our 14-day trip through Japan. The itinerary on paper was Hakkoda Ropeway, Hirosaki Castle and Park, and the Fujita Memorial Garden. But Mr. Otani made it so much more than a checklist. Even though the service noted that no guided tours were included, he walked every step of the way with us. He took our photos at every beautiful spot without being asked, pulled over at scenic lookouts he clearly loved, and went out of his way to show us small corners of his hometown that no itinerary would ever include. His generosity with both time and energy was remarkable, and he had more enthusiasm for his own city than most professional guides we have ever met. We spoke completely different languages and had to communicate entirely through a translator app, but honestly, it never once felt like a barrier. He was patient, curious, and quick to laugh. By midday, we were trading stories about our lives, our families, and Japan itself, and somewhere between Hirosaki Castle and a quiet roadside view, a driver became a friend. I keep coming back to the word vitality. Mr. Otani has it in spades. His warmth, his stories, and his genuine pride in showing us his home turned a single port day into a memory my partner and I will carry for years. If you are lucky enough to be paired with Mr. Otani, you are in for the kind of day that is very hard to plan for and impossible to forget. Thank you, Mr. Otani. You made our trip.

Thank you for sharing such a lovely photo. It really made us smile. The weather in Aomori looked beautiful that day. Thank you also for your kind review. We are very happy to hear you had such a great day with Mr. Otani. We will be sure to share your message with him. Our partner taxi drivers are not professional guides, but they know the local area very well, and many of them clearly enjoy sharing it with guests. Thank you again for choosing us. We hope to see you again in Japan.
