After a punctual pick-up at the port, our wishes were fulfilled from the lookout and the botanical garden with zoo before we left the city. The rural part, with beautiful nature was relaxing. In the rice paddies we were able to try out the devices😅💪🧑��🌾 and learned a lot about the hard work that no offspring find. Afterwards we made cups and sticks and cooked chicken in bamboo. When eating we tasted through the local delicacies, very delicious😋. On the way back to the port there was another stop to buy a decent coffee. We were back on time and had a great day with many nice experiences. Thank you very much
Highlight of our time in Nagasaki!

This experience was absolutely fun, unique, and beautiful — one of the highlights of our time in Nagasaki! 🌾✨ We loved making our own bamboo cups and chopsticks by hand — such a creative and memorable activity. The setting itself is stunning; the terraced rice paddies and mountain views took our breath away. Owner Haruo was incredibly knowledgeable, welcoming, and kind, taking the time to explain the history and culture of the area and inviting us so warmly into this special place. If you’re looking for something beyond the usual tourist spots, this is a perfect way to experience the rural beauty and traditions of Japan. Highly recommend!

This tour was a highlight of our trip to Japan. Our family included people aged 13 to 84 and everybody loved the experience of eating a fresh homemade lunch in the rice field and learning about the culture. Highly recommend this tour!
