I loved every moment of this Aomori experience. From the peaceful gardens to the castle view, it was a beautiful way to spend the day. Booking outside the Celebrity Millennium gave us more freedom and a better price. Thanks, Felix, for all the arrangements!

We skipped the ship’s excursion and booked this shared tour instead. It was a great decision. The pace was relaxed, and the cultural sites felt truly local. Felix, our travel expert, provided great advice ahead of the trip and made everything seamless.

We were on the Celebrity Millennium and wanted something more authentic than a cruise tour. This shared tour was exactly that. We explored local culture at the Neputa Village and had plenty of time at each stop. Felix was super responsive and professional.

This tour gave us a great introduction to Aomori’s traditions and architecture. The visit to the local tourist center and castle was both scenic and informative. If you're looking for thoughtful Aomori shore excursions, this is a great pick.

This was one of the most charming Aomori shore excursions we've done. Hirosaki Castle surrounded by cherry blossoms was picture-perfect. The tour was smooth, relaxed, and the small group setting made it feel personal. Thanks to Felix, our travel expert, for helping us book this fantastic shared tour.
