Our tour was completely enjoyable from beginning to end. Yuragi was extremely professional and informative about the history and culture of Japan. It was a great touch to use the various modes of public transportation including the cable car, ropeway, and Lake Ashi boat to connect all the highlights. He chose an excellent restaurant for lunch as well. I highly recommend.
