Fantastic walking tour of...

Libby_F, Aug 2026

Fantastic walking tour of the castle and garden. The pottery experience was so much fun and Mrs Sato was very informative about the history and cultural aspects. It was a very hot day so hat sunscreen and parasol are definitely recommended, but it was very enjoyable and the pace was easy.

Response from Host, Aug 2026

Thank you very much for joining our tour! We are delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring the castle and garden, as well as the Bizen pottery experience. We also truly appreciate your kind words about the historical and cultural guidance, and our guide was very happy to hear your feedback. We are also glad that you were able to enjoy the tour at a comfortable pace despite the hot weather. It will take a little time for your Bizen pottery piece to be fired and completed, but we hope you will look forward to receiving this special souvenir filled with memories of your trip. We hope to welcome you back to Okayama again someday!
