Good to see different sights and to get out of Tokyo for a day. Wish there had been more description and/or history of what we were seeing. We had a little rainy weather due to a typhoon blowing in, so some places were closed on Enoshima. The drive back from

Pan was very friendly and informative. Learnt a lot about Kamakura and Enoshima throughout the trip. It was organised well and had enough time at each location to freely explore without rushing. Highly recommend this tour if you're here for the first time 😁

This tour was great and even had to experience it in the pouring rain. Our guide was amazing and the tour was accurate to the description. The only thing I would adjust is less time at enoshima island at the end. I think 2 hours was too long. But loved the experience!

Great day out of Tokyo, four different sights. Loved Kamakura, beautiful temple then main Street with Tori gates all the way to the ocean. The Daibutsu Buddha is impressive & then we went to Enoshima island for a couple of hours to enjoy at our own pace. Great main Street, specialty & food places. Our guides were lovely & enthusiastic. Highly recommend this trip.
