Attraction of Monitor Tours
You can experience unusual things just by participating in a monitored tour.
Participating in a monitoring tour allows you to take part in unusual experiences that you would not be able to experience on your own.
For example:agricultural experience, activity experience, Japanese traditional culture experience, etc.
Since the monitor tour covers part or all of the travel expenses, you can participate in an unusual experience virtually free of charge.
Basically, you only pay for transportation to the meeting place from your home. All transportation and participation fees during the monitored tour are free. In addition, you can go to various places on the monitor tour, not just one.

Recommended Spots in Kansai: Forest and Sea Adventures in Maibara, Shiga
Hello! My name is Anna and I am a German student living in Kyoto, Japan. While Osaka and Kyoto are both famous tourist spots, most tourists and international residents in Japan do not consider taking a trip to Shiga prefecture. Maybe it is exactly because big cities with entertainment facilities such as Kyoto and Osaka are nearby, that beautiful places such as Shiga are often overlooked. Most guides for foreigners do not mention this less known prefecture either. Even if you have heard of Shiga, you might not know what to do there. In this article I will share all about my adventure during a tour in Maibara, Shiga and hope I will be able to convince you that this might be a new must-visit spot for you as well!・・・Click here to read the rest of the article.

ハンガリー出身の私が栃木県宇都宮市のツアーに参加して気づいたこと
皆さん、sziasztok(シアストク: こんにちは)!2022年の10月に留学生として来日したハンガリー出身のアンナです。前回は東京のイルミネーションが綺麗な場所を紹介しましたが、今回は先月末に私が参加した栃木県宇都宮市の観光ツアーについてご紹介したいと思います。
私はこのツアーに参加するまで、栃木県といえば“いちごの生産量が全国1位”なことや“レモン牛乳”が有名なことしか知らなかったのですが、「新幹線に乗って今まで行ったことのない場所を巡れるチャンスだ!」と軽い気持ちで参加してみると、栃木県宇都宮市には美味しい食べ物だけではなく、美しい伝統工芸品や豊かな自然の中でアクティビティ体験できるスポットが沢山あることに気付き、とても驚きました。そこで、今回は栃木県宇都宮市ツアーで1番印象に残ったことを重点的にご紹介したいと思います。・・・続きはコチラからご覧ください
