Mount Inasa is renowned for its stunning panoramic views of Nagasaki, especially at night when the city lights twinkle below, earning it a spot as one of Japan’s top three night views. Accessible by a scenic ropeway, the summit offers breathtaking vistas of the harbor, the surrounding mountains, and the iconic landmarks of Nagasaki.

5.00Pene provided a lovely and comprehensive tour of Nagasaki. He was very informative and attentive to all of the group's needs. The tour was well planned and ended near the cruise ship so that it was within walking distance. We used taxis to get around which worked beautifully. The natural beauty of Nagasaki was seen from above via a ropeway tram. The church and museum visits were a must as well as Glover Garden. I loved the way Pene incorporated his teaching experiences into the tour. It gave a true feeling of the Nagasaki way of life. Thank you, Pene, for such a wonderful experience.!
Best Tour During Our Japan Trip!

5.00This tour was amazing! We were picked up from the cruise port and we were taken to all the best places in Nagasaki! We had plenty of time to experience everything we wanted to see and our tour guide Pene was really friendly and informative! We even got to choose a couple of places that weren't listed on the tour that we wanted to visit and he was happy to take us there. Really was the best Tour we had in Japan and would recommend to everyone!

5.00Pene was a fantastic guide! He was both likeable and extremely knowledgable - able to go into great depth about the city, its contributions to Japanese history, and its contributions to world history. On top of that, Pene is a great conversationalist. This was my 3rd time in Japan, and I don’t believe I ever had such a great guide. Would very highly recommend!
Great Day in Nagasaki!

5.00We had an amazing day with our guide Pene in Nagasaki. He was a wealth of knowledge about history as well as modern day living in Nagasaki. He would share history and then let us explore on our own and at our own pace. He took us to an amazing seafood restaurant with a view of the ocean. The food was delicious, fresh and reasonably priced with ice cold beer. We decided to take taxi's rather than public transportation which allowed us to be more efficient with less up hill walking so we were able to complete our entire itinerary in the alloted time and never felt rushed. This was the best tour of our 2 week stay so far. Nagasaki is beautiful and I would highly recommend Pene.
