“Seven Hells & Crocodiles!”

Beautiful and amazingly colored hot springs, topped off by a pool full of crocodiles. Don’t miss driving through the narrow streets where movies and dramas are filmed. Our driver was accommodating, eager to take pictures for us and knowledgeable about the area.

“Ringing the gong at Chikurin-ji Temple”

From the Chikurin-ji Temple to the observation deck at Godaisan Park to the red bridge at Harimayabashi Park to shopping at Harimayacho, it was a day full of contrasts. With the use of translation apps, we were able to communicate beautifully with our driver and learn all about this wonderful city.

“Visiting Ise Shrines and Highlights”

We were a bit concerned about not having a guide or English speaking driver, but those concerns turned out to be unfounded. Our driver, Uemura, was delightful and accommodating (he arranged for a larger vehicle early in our trip as my husband and I are both tall) and we communicated well with the help of AI translation apps. Uemura accompanied us to each of the shrine sites, taught us proper acknowledgment rituals and generally acted like a guide. We finished the “tour” at one of his favorite local udon restaurants where we had a lovely noodle lunch. We could not have had a better experience in Toba thanks to the patience and enthusiasm of Uemura!
