Nikko Private Tour fra Tokyo - Templer, natur og skjulte perler

Awesome tour! I highly recommend this experience. This tour is pact with a great number of location the are must see when visiting Japan. Also, is very convenient, you get pickup and drop off at your hotel. The driver was great and very helpful. If you are lucky you get JJ as your driver. JJ is very knowledgeable and professional.

The whole day on a walk along the most beautiful places, relaxed and with a fantastic guide. Highly recommended!

Very beautiful nature and temples! Nice guide, he makes sure you get to see everything you want to see. Definitely worth it!!

Nature and culture beautifully processed in 1 outing. Completely unburdened. We couldn’t have visited all this ourselves via public transport in such a short time. Nikko is a breath of fresh air after busy Tokyo. Thanks also to our guide and driver jJJ for the ride and the guidance!

A very friendly man who took us everywhere and gives some more info about everything. You get to see the highlights and it was quite a pleasant ride. Definitely recommended!

good experience and a good driver

What a wonderful experience! I would highly recommend this tour- beautiful vehicle, kind and knowledgeable driver and incredible order of special spots to visit.

This was one of the best experiences of our Japan trip. Our driver was punctual, friendly, and professional, and the vehicle was spotless and very comfortable. We visited the magnificent Toshogu Shrine, Kegon Falls, Lake Chuzenji, and other beautiful locations without feeling rushed. The itinerarywas well organized, and we learned interesting facts about each destination while enjoyi the flexibility of a private tour. Hotel pickupand drop-off made the day completely stress-free. If you’re looking for a comfortable, personalized,and memorable day trip from Tokyo, I highly recommend this Nikko private tour. We would definitely book again!

This was our 12th day in Japan, and first tour. We managed to see everything everywhere we went without a guide but we wanted the ease of getting to Nikko which is a bit more remote. The trip started with us asking about the vehicle as we paid 200$ CAD more for the « executive » service. We were therefore surprised to see that this was a 15 year old Toyota van with captain seats in the back. The explanation we got was that we would’ve gotten a regular seat in the back without that « executive » part. We were also shocked to not have a Japanese guide. We are here to visit a country and would have loved to have a native of the region to show us around. The day started at 8am with convenient pick up at our Airbnb. We then drove 2.5h to Nikko with a stop at a convenience store. Our guide did speak with us a but he had a strong accent and spoke very low so difficult to understand. The first stops were the Lake and the waterfall. The lake was not much unfortunately given the weather but the waterfall was amazing. However our guide did not come in with us and it became clear that this was more of a taxi ride with multiple stops than an actual guided tour. We then went to an amazing shrine and temple. We were about to skip (!!!) the temple when I asked to go in and the guide seemed shocked as if no one has ever asked to go in before. It’s a good thing I did as after we paid to see it we witness the three amazing Buddha statues inside and it may have been the best temple we saw in Japan. We then made our way up to the shrine which was another wonder. Tokugawa Ieyasu’s laying ground and an amazing temple/shrine. It was again difficult to understand our guide who kept saying « Leeasshoo ». I can understand accents but as a French person speaking English in Japan, I feel like the guide should be able to say the name properly. We then went for lunch which was the worse meal we had in our entire trip. We were told to grab a picture of the red bridge in Nikko on our way out of the restaurant. We had left our umbrellas in the car prior to lunch and coming out we saw heavy rain so we attempted to go get them. The guide and the van were nowhere to be seen. We texted him and searched for him for 10 minutes in heavy downpour before he showed up. Following that, we went to two more waterfalls which were nice and then were driven back to Tokyo. Our « guide » tried to ask us many times to not leave him a bad review despite the awful day we had. Long story short, Nikko is amazing but don’t overpay for this one!

We were so thankful to have had Umer as our tour guide. He was punctual, flexible, but above all, very knowledgeable. Umer was able to converse with us on a wide variety of topics, not just the sites we visited. I would highly recommend using his service again.
