Description
This tour is a day trip tour to go to Kawazu area by train to enjoy cherry blossom in Feb. Kawazu-zakura can be seen all over Japan, but since the original trees exist in Kawazu-cho, many tourists from Japan and abroad still come to see them. The town offers beautiful scenery, gourmet food, and hot springs, but the main attraction is the Kawazu cherry blossoms, which bloom around February every year. This tour is usually offered only in February to coincide with the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival. This tour can be done only in February, so please don't miss this rare opportunity if you are in Japan during the festival season! Why not enjoy an early taste of Japanese spring by soaking in a footbath or eating food from a food stall while admiring the rows of cherry trees along the river? This tour is led by National Licensed Guide Interpreter. We'd be more than happy to arrange the tour based on your requests. or interests!

Itinerary
Kawazu-cho
We will take an express train named Izu no Odoriko-go to Kawazu station. Kawazu Town is located near the tip of the Izu Peninsula in Shizuoka Prefecture. Kawazu-cho is a town full of charm, with flowers blooming all year round and the natural bounty of the sea, mountains, and rivers. The town offers beautiful scenery, gourmet food, and hot springs, but the main attraction is the Kawazu cherry blossoms, which bloom around February every year. Kawazu-zakura can be seen all over Japan, but since the original trees exist in Kawazu-cho, many tourists from Japan and abroad still come to see them.
Kawazu Sakura No Genmoku
It is said that the original Kawazu-zakura tree was planted in 1955 by Katsumi Iida, who happened to find a budding cherry seedling along the Kawazu River and planted it in his garden. The trunk of the original tree was about 115 cm in circumference, and it is said to be about 60 to 70 years old. The sight of many flowers blooming in a ball-like mass is sure to soothe the viewer.
Kawazuzakura Festival
This festival is held for about a month, coinciding with the blooming of the Kawazu cherry trees. Visitors can enjoy the Japanese cherry blossoms while viewing the cherry blossoms at the stalls and other stands. Since rape blossoms also bloom at the same time, visitors can enjoy the contrast of pink and yellow. Soak in a footbath (a hot spring where you can soak only your feet) and experience the Japanese spring a little earlier than usual.
