Continue to Fujita Memorial Garden, a beautiful Japanese garden, then discover Hirosaki’s distinctive Western-style architecture. Visit Saisho-in Temple to admire its historic five-story pagoda. On the return journey, stop at Roadside Station Namioka Apple Hill, where you can browse local products, Aomori apples, sweets, and souvenirs.

The driver speaks Japanese, with communication assisted by a translation app. Before your tour, you will receive an English digital guidebook about the itinerary and sightseeing locations. Pre-tour customer support is available in English.
