Fantastic Experience - Although there were not many blooming cherry blossoms, I felt like I did not miss much as Lucy was able to provide so many interesting details and info about the sites. Lucy was an excellent guide. This trip was fantastic and was better than I hoped for. I would highly recommend this tour.
