Yokohama Tour Reviews - Pass through Motomachi's aisles for a luxurious lunch that starts with exquisite Italian. From the beginning, I was like, "This is a win!" It was such a delicious and good start to the day that I felt like.
Then climb the Marine Tower to see the city of Yokohama. While strolling through Yamashita Park, we headed to the museum, where we learned carefully about the origin and history of Yokohama as Hamadokoroi.
We finished with the Cup Noodles Museum. After enjoying making your own original cup noodles, I was able to deeply feel the origin of his invention and its greatness throughout his life. I was also very satisfied with the composition of the whole trip, which I was able to finish while reflecting on naturally.
The guide was impressive for his open and warm personality, and thanks to the meticulously crafted materials and easy-to-understand explanations, I was able to feel first-hand the information that is unique to the local area that cannot be obtained through the Internet or books alone.
The moment you stand in a special place, which is unique in Yokohama, is more than you can imagine, and it is an experience you can look forward to and be sure to experience.
This tour can be enjoyed by families, lovers and friends alike, in any situation. The guide's wife was also a very pleasant person and we were able to spend a relaxing time throughout.
This tour is recommended with confidence for those who want to know Yokohama more deeply and have more fun.
