We do not have good public transportation system in Sado like JR.

Until quite recently, We were not allowed to drive cars when we were the tour guides.

The government revised laws and ordinances lately. We, tour guides, can drive our own cars and rental cars for tourists, now . If your party is made up of 1- 4 people, I will give you a free ride in my car. If your party is more than 5 people, I recommend you a rental car. I will be a driver also.

Rental car fare for a big party will cost you around 20000 yen a day.

  • 50% Refund - 3 to 7 days prior to meeting time
  • No Refund - Within 2 day(s) prior to meeting time

A Day on Sado

Excellent with planning & timing. Found a cute cafe to start the tour, then off to the places of interest. He planned well so we could visit all the sights we wanted to see. His English is great, answers all questions, & is informative along the way. Based on our experience with Kei, we would use GoWithGuide again.

Sado Island is Worth a Visit

We visited Sado Island with Mr. Keiichi, and had a very pleasant tour. The island is interesting and Mr. Keiichi has a "menu" of sights of which we picked approximately 6. We would probably not do the "tub boat". A boat which for very good reasons was never used beyond Sado. The gold mine is interesting (World heritage) and the animatronics are well. The Toki sanctuary is also interesting, as are the cliffs. The Ferry over to Sado is also an experience. To get a full tour if you are in Niigata you have to catch the 6AM ferry.
