Customers' Voice #5 / Shizuoka private tour

Dear Hirokane,

Thank you very much for your kind arrangements.  
The shrimp senbei shop is very good, my children had so much fun trying the different senbei and we ended up buying a few packets.  They also provided free coffee and tea!

Tokino Sumika was really beautiful and it is good we went there instead of Snow Town since Snow Town might be too cold for my younger boy.

Pls do help us to thank Mr Mori, the Japanese restaurant that he brought us to was very good.  

Lastly, we would like to thank you once again for all the coordination and help.  
Wishing you and your family a beautiful and joyful 2017!

Best regards,

(Our guests from Singapore. Thank you.)
