This was my first trip to Izumo Taisha, and since I only had one day, I really appreciated the efficient itinerary that packed in all the key sights. Plus, the explanations were very detailed, and hearing stories from the *Kojiki* and other myths was very educational. I had a wonderful time—thank you very much. I would definitely recommend this tour to anyone visiting Izumo Taisha for the first time.

Despite the flight delays caused by the typhoon and my late arrival, you still took the time to check on me. I had actually seen this traditional performing art before as part of a class when I was a student, but watching it as an adult allowed me to appreciate it from many different perspectives—it was a truly satisfying hour. The location was also wonderful, as the sunset was just beginning to set. Thank you for the wonderful memories and experience. If the opportunity arises, I would love to visit again.

It was a great tour that allowed us to efficiently explore the Izumo area. Since finding a place for lunch was quite a challenge, I’d be happy if—as is often the case with group tours—there were an optional arrangement available for an additional fee to enjoy a meal featuring Izumo’s local specialties, which interested participants could choose. I imagine some people collect temple stamps, so I think it would be nice to have a premium feel by offering a special perk, such as a temple stamp with an original design exclusive to this tour. The guide was very knowledgeable and courteous—I thought they did an excellent job. Thank you very much for your hospitality.

It was wonderful. The performers were so dedicated to entertaining the audience, and I really enjoyed the show. I especially loved the chase scene in “The Mountain God,” where they came right into the audience, and the sword dance performance. Thank you very much. I’m curious to see what other performances you have. Also, I was able to try on a Kagura mask at the end—an experience I wouldn’t normally get to have—so I enjoyed myself right up until the very end. However, the staff members were walking back and forth around the stairs, which was a bit distracting.

This was my first tour and my first time to see the gardens. Each garden was beautiful and I hope to see them again next year. The staff was very attentive to our needs, changing the itinerary in advance to accommodate the weather on the day of the tour and making arrangements so that we could see Mr. Iizuka's garden in addition to the tour. Thank you very much.

This was my first visit to Izumo-taisha Shrine, so I decided to join the tour and learn more about it. I was very glad to have participated in the tour because I could understand the information only a local can provide, and the explanations that showed the great understanding and love for Izumo-taisha Shrine. I am very glad that I participated. I would like to participate again and recommend it to anyone who is planning to visit Izumo-taisha in the future.

I had always wanted to visit the Izumo region, but I happened to find the Shinwa bus on the Internet. I usually travel on weekdays, but I wanted to take this bus, so we decided to take it on a Sunday and applied for it as a couple. It was a bit hot on the day of the tour, but we were blessed with fine weather and our guide (F) gave us clear and detailed explanations, which helped us to understand the tour even better. I really appreciated the commemorative photos taken at various places. At Izumo-taisha Shrine, we were introduced to a good soba noodle restaurant, which was a good place to eat. The guide and driver were both very kind and answered our many questions. As a result, we walked quite a few steps, but we did not feel too tired and the time passed in a blink of an eye! I felt that the tour had a charm that large sightseeing buses cannot offer. This trip to Izumo was the most memorable of our four-day, three-night trip to the San'in region. I hope the Shinwa will continue forever! Thank you very much!

We were overwhelmed by the deep fascination of the Izumo region, even though we were curious guests who had been all over the world. Our guide, Mr. Maeda, was courteous and friendly, answering our questions in a way that made our trip even more enjoyable. We were also able to enjoy the many pleasures that only a private charter can offer, and we were grateful for the time he took to purchase souvenirs and adjust the itinerary according to our wishes. The driver, Mr. Tanaka, drove us gently and we enjoyed the tour without getting tired. We look forward to another opportunity to visit again.

It was a very enjoyable tour! We had a wonderful time showing off the carefully maintained garden! I regret that I didn't thank the owner because I was so busy trying to see it in the time available! Lunch was gorgeous and delicious! We appreciated the warm food, but it would have tasted better if it had been served a little more amiably. The tour guide and driver were courteous and kind!
