Japan Private Car Tours

“Splendid tour on a Beautiful Day”

we left Aomori with a guide, Hiro K, we have travelled with before and had a magnificent day. first stop was the Takayama Inari shrine which was so impressive with its torii gates, water features, main hall, fox statues, scenic landscape, and lack of people in such a serene setting. Hiro is very informative and enthusiastic and we enjoyed learning about this shrine. next stop was an apple orchard and vineyard and we learned about the growing processes, varieties grown, etc. was excellent to see how some aspects of agriculture work in Japan. amazing home cooked lunch. if you're gluten free he thinkss outside the box to ensure you stay healthy. then off to see Japan's longest wooden bridge - lagoon with various birds, storks being in attendance. enjoyed seeing the agricultural land around Aomori with such a knowledgeable guide. he helped us find two shops in Aomori at the very end of our tour - one with maps and one with lacquerware. I would highly recommend this guide and would certainly use his services if/when I return - probably next year. deb

“A super entertaining day”

Unfortunately, we could only book Akira for one day. That day was fantastic; Akira was such a nice and eloquent guide with surprisingly good background knowledge. The day passed like a breeze. Thank you very much, Akira!

“Amazing how he fit it all in!”

The driver was very professional and worked hard to fit in all the sights we wanted to see and still get us back on time. Thank you for the great driving! The Curtises
