This trip is mainly about Okayama Shikoku. PASS allows you to take the Shin-Osaka-Hakata Shinkansen. You can also spend one day each to check out the places you have been to before.

The Indigo Travel day tour with Cheese Guide was really enjoyable and fun. 1. The passionate guide's diverse knowledge made the historical site tour even more fun. 2. Comfortable meal reservations at Hanana Domi Set/Tomi Ochazuke, the best restaurant in Kyoto. 3. There was a minor incident during our schedule, but they dealt with it really quickly so that the entire schedule was not affected. 4. Doraemon-like preparedness for first aid/snacks/photography. 5. The perfect guide, including a list of delicious restaurants and souvenirs in Osaka. There were so many things to do, but I was able to enjoy the day so much. * Other tours go to Kinkaku-ji Temple, but this tour goes to Ginkaku-ji Temple. Although it is not fancy, I personally really liked Ginkaku-ji Temple because it has a quiet sensibility and many things to see.

It's convenient, no need to queue to buy, but don't forget to reserve a seat. If you don't want to wait long for the train with available seats, it's good to reserve in advance because the seats fill up quickly if you want the desired time and can sit together.

The tour guide is familiar with the road and does not drive slowly. He will allow you to drive at legal speeds on safe road sections, generally 50km/h; but the go-kart gives you a stronger sense of speed, and 2 hours passes quickly. Recommended

A very fast, safe and punctual railway. The all-blue design of the Ironman model is very stylish in cooperation with the Swiss Railway Company.
