Sado half day tour
Joined 2018
There are many fascinating tourist spots in Sado. Among them, the most popular spots are Sado gold mine and Toki (Japanese crested ibis) forest park. Basically, these two spots are indoor facilities, so we do not need to worry about the weather. if the weather is nice, Senkaku bay can be another option.

Tour Important Information
This tour can be customized according to your needs and preferences.
We do not have good public transportation system in Sado like JR.
Until quite recently , tour guides were not allowed to drive cars when we were the tour guides.
The government revised laws and ordinances lately. We can drive cars for the tourists, now.
Taxi is safe and comfortable, but it's fare is expensive. 7000 yen an hour for normal passenger car,
Rental car fare is reasonable ,approximately 10000 yen for 8 hours including full car insurance. If you are afraid of driving a car in Sado, I will drive it.
I recommend you to charter a taxi or a jumbo taxi .
If you have an international driver's license, A rental car is another option .It saves the budget.

My bf and I visited Sado Island for the first time this summer. Keii drove us to a lot of different spots including the gold mine, shukunegi town, tub boats, toki conservation area, and senkakuwan bay. He explained the history and knows a lot about the island. Would definitely recommend!
