🙋🏻♀️A word from Lulu
Japan's transportation is notoriously complex and difficult, especially in less popular areas🤯 It can really be a headache! If you find making travel plans troublesome, there's really no need to force yourself to go on a free-and-easy trip, as it can be more tiring! Hate traveling with a large group❓ No problem‼️ Lulu has prepared a refined travel squad for two! Get everything sorted at once: hotel + transportation + tickets + accommodation + driver + most meals🍴 Only with high-quality, comfortable travel can you fully enjoy it!
.
✨Trip Highlights
🔸Check in at the town of Yufuin, take the popular train through 'Yufuin no Mori', as if entering a fairy tale!

Winter wonderland!
A cable ride brought me to an entirely different world at the Tsurumi mountain; a winter wonderland, covered with snow. Take the hiking trail to visit the various shrines on the mountain top to ask for blessings. Amazing sight of trees and pathways covered by snow. There are also a number of stairs which are very slippery so if climbing up is tough, going down is a bigger challenge. A sight seeing spot not to be missed. Overall rating of 5/5
