“Amazing Tour Around Ibaraki”

Keiichiro-San was a wonderful guide, driving me all around Ibaraki. I only knew of Hitachi Seaside Park from social media, but from that he crafted me a full day itinerary and was very flexible with what time to meet, and which station to drop me off at at the end of the day. He drove me all the way to the border of Fukushima and Ibaraki from Katsuta Station through the course of the day and showed me a lot of great nature spots, and took me to his favorite lunch spot which was a great meal at a cheap price! I also really enjoyed our conversations during lunch and while he was driving us around, from talking about the prefecture to just random topics about life. I hope more tourists visit Ibaraki and reach out to Keiichiro-san to guide them!

Keiichiro I.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I truly enjoyed spending the day with you and having so many great conversations. It was a pleasure showing you around Ibaraki — I’m really glad you liked the places we visited and the lunch spot. I also had a lot of fun talking with you throughout the day. I hope we’ll have the chance to meet again someday!
