Visite historique à pied de la ville portuaire de Niigata
Description
Dans les années 1800, Niigata a prospéré en tant que ville portuaire. Des navires de Russie, de Chine, d'Angleterre et du monde entier sont venus ici pour faire du commerce. Les citoyens de Niigata menaient une vie lucrative en gagnant leur vie en expédiant des marchandises et en vendant des produits locaux (principalement agricoles). La ville était inondée de marins du monde entier, permettant à Niigata de se fondre et de changer avec leur influence. Rejoignez-nous pour une visite à pied historique de la vieille ville portuaire de Niigata, où nous explorerons l'harmonie unique des cultures occidentale et japonaise qui s'est développée à Niigata dans les années 1800.

What a wonderful tour. Probably the most informative regarding Japanese culture that we have had on our 2 week visit especially with Isabella as our guide. She was the best!!!!
Very knowledgeable guide. Excellent walk, although meeting point a little tricky as not clear. Met all expectations.
Jake was great. He gave us excellent information about the area and local customs and readily shared his personal experiences. We felt like we had a very immersive experience in Niigata in general and the old town area.
Small group, great walk and informative talk. A good 3 hrs visiting historical houses, geiga street and gardens. Thanks Jake for your local insights,
Isabella is an excellent guide, having lived in Niigata with her family for many years. It would help visitors if the location of the meeting point was marked on a map rather than being given as a post code - the taxi driver didn’t know where to drop us.
Unfortunately we did not make the tour ..our starting point was the cruise ship Port and transportation to the starting point was just under an hour and there were limited transportation options .. I was in conversation with Viator and their customer service was 100% supportive .. nice to experience these days … although we missed the tour we were happy customers at the end of the day!
It was a nice tour of the historic district of Niigata, Isabell explained everything in English, we learned a lot that day, the houses visited were very nice and imposing! There was plenty of time for photos everywhere. It was a great day.
Our tour guide Isabella was fabulous. She was so knowledgeable and engaging. This city is a gem and particularly the Saito Villa expresses both the spectacular and cozy of Japan in harmony.
Isabella gave us a detailed history of Niigata as a port town, and showed us around a number of historic sites, including the Saito Villa. A wedding party was photographing there, so this glimpse of a Japanese bride and groom was an added bonus. Her English was perfect and easy to understand. She was considerate and flexible. We opted for a private tour. Well worth the time and cost.
Knowledgeable guide and very informative tour about the Niigata city. Isabella was good on history and Japanese culture nuances.
