“1 day tour with Mr. Jack M”
Enjoyed my day tour with Mr. Jack M from Utsunomiya to Nikko. The road trip was relaxed and he brought us to the major view points in Okunikko such as Senjogahara plateau, Yomoto Onsen, Kegon falls and Lake Chuzenji and conducted a detailed tour of the Toshogu shrine. Would highly recommend him as your guide if you wish to travel fuss free on a private tour. We stayed at Lake Chuzenji after the tour. Mr. Jack is a friendly and patient guide. He also drives safely.

“Custom tour with Jack”
We arranged a custom tour with Jack to make the most of our short time in Nikko, including him collecting us from the station, us leaving our baggage in his car during the tour so that we didn't lose time having to go to the hotel first, and him dropping us at our hotel afterwards. This all worked perfectly and Jack took us round everything we wanted to see at just the right pace, and was always the perfect host. Thanks Jack !

Hello Mike and Maria, How was your stay at the most luxurious hotel in Nikko? It was really crowded everywhere, particularly the road from the station to the Shinkyo Bridge. Thank you for being so cooperative walking with me. I enjoyed spending time with you. Thank you. Kind regards, Jack

Nasu Heisei-no-mori Forest walk and Nasu Highland
We go to Nasu by motorway and stop at Sesshoseki (Killing stone) and then to Nasu Heisei-no-mori Forest. We walk there around a couple of hours and have lunch. There is no restaurant in that area so that you should buy your lunch at one of the covenience stores on the way to Nasu. After lunch if the weather permits we go to the ninth station of Chausudake mountain by ropeway. We enjoy spectacular scenery from there. Then dropping off at the visitor center to learn about Nasu.
