Hirosaki City - The Original Castle Keep
Hirosaki has many attractions, such as the thousands of ancient cherry trees, surrounding the castle and is Japan’s biggest apple producer. There are about 50 apple-pie restaurants. Hirosaki grew up around its castle, protected by Shinto Shrines to the north and Buddhism temples to the south-west. Come with me and I'll share my extensive knowledge about the city and make this a memorable experience!

“In Aomori you're family”
We did not know what to expect when we arrived in Aomori, but our time with Tomohiko-san will remain a very special part of our lives. After leaving the bustling city of Tokyo, where it feels like you're always in sight of at least 30 people, we could not fathom being the only people at the Seiryu-ji temple, and being able to sit down in relaxed silence to hear the wind whistle through the trees, and the calm of nature. We also got to experience the popular Sannai Maruyama Archeological site - an open air museum with reconstructed buildings you can explore! Tomo-san explained the history of the site as well, telling us how the Jomon people lived but also how the modern people of Aomori knew of them before the museum was established. Everywhere we traveled, Tomo knew someone and it was through these interactions that we truly came to understand the people behind the history we were learning about. The past we'd only read about was brought to life by meeting the people and experiencing the amazing culture. We learned a bit of the Aomori dialect, we experienced some AMAZING food, we got to catch an unforgettable shamisen show, and we met so many amazing people every step of the way. Even our driver helped us avoid traffic by taking us on truly scenic detours (it was golden week), and as a result we got to experience an unexpected festival in the park. Tomo himself is a very knowledgeable guide, who treated us like old friends. He took really great photos of us, allowing us to enjoy our surroundings and focus on being present. We truly hope to return soon and cannot recommend him (or visiting Aomori) enough!

“Fantastic Guide”
Vikki was great from the start. Good Comms and tailored an itinerary for us. Kept in touch all the way until the meet day and it was a wonderful day, thanks to Vikki's detailed knowledge. Very easy to talk to and knows all the best spots! We went to the big Buddha, my wife had a go at playing the instruments thanks to a friendly chat Vikki had with the performers. We took the local bus back into town and adapted the itinerary to include a shopping stop before going to the cider factory for lunch. We capped it off looking around the Nebuta Museum looking at the incredible floats, before being escorted back to our boat. I would thoroughly recommend Vikki anybody visiting the Aamori region.
