“A beautiful day filled with cherry blossoms.”
A special thank you to Tomohiko for a memorable day. Upon booking this tour many months ago, I had great communication with Tomohiko regarding our tour. The morning of the tour Tomohiko met us at the cruise port and after attending a tea ceremony, off we went to see the sights of Aomori and its surrounding areas. Tomohiko is an incredibly knowledgeable and caring guide, who was always willing to answer questions and provide us with the local history. Being a long time resident of Aomori, Tomohiko provided a unique prospective of Aomori’s history and lifestyle. Arriving in late April, we were truly lucky to experience the cherry blossoms. The lake and park at Tsuruta Mawarizeki (Fuji Miko Park) were incredibly beautiful and a memorable experience, as the area was filled with pink cherry blossoms. Later in the day a or visit to Saishoin Temple and Hirosaki Castle was equally beautiful. This was a once in a lifetime experience. Thank you Tomohiko.

“Aomori 4 hours”
Wonderful experience but I’m sure our driver Mr. Ohtani went above and beyond. He opened our doors, provided umbrellas for the brief period it rained, accompanied us into the sites and made sure we saw the important details. We were booked to go to Seiryuji Temple (Showa Big Buddha) and the Special Historic Site Sannai. We had some extra time so he filled it by taking us to a lookout spot and the Nebuta Museum. We certainly got our 4 hours worth and our driver Mr. Ohtani was very kind and proud to show us the sites in his City.
