Meet up: punctual. Guide: Kim was friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. Transportation: a bus. Clean and comfortable. Driver: good, didn’t drive too fast. Max I observed was around 105km/hr. Places/Activites: Kabuki theatre, Soba making and eating, Magome juku (it was called Local Tradition of Kiso Valley and Nakasendo Road). Did we enjoy it? Definitely yes. Did we learn something new? Oh yes. Was the price steep? Yes, but it was much better than other “big bus” tours. Quality vs Quantity. We are very satisfied, money well spent. Do we recommend it to others? Wholeheartedly.
