This was an unforgettable experience and I completely recommend it if you want to know more in detail about this beautiful place that’s Nikko!
The temple we visited in this tour definitely became my favorite temple in Japan, and thanks to the English explanation from our tour guide I was able to learn a lot about the history of this place and about Japanese customs. I feel that I wouldn’t have been able to learn the same if I went by myself, so this was definitely a plus on this tour.
I’m forever grateful to our tour guide for taking me and my group on this amazing experience and showing us the beauty of this place.

Amazing Trip in japan
I thoroughly enjoyed my time in Nikko with this tour. The breathtaking panoramic view from the observation deck and leisurely walks around the lake were truly remarkable. Following a delicious lunch, we explored the UNESCO World Heritage site, Toshogu, a sacred place for the Japanese, adorned with beautifully ornate temples. The tour guide, fluent in English, was incredibly supportive throughout the entire experience.
