This is the first time I visited this observatory; the view is very beautiful and it is perfect to take beautiful panoramic pictures. The Sky Circus can be a good visit for families because there are activities for both children and adults. I personally really enjoyed the Virtual Reality Animations. The design of the Bar and Restaurant is warm and cheerful, it makes you want to have a drink or a meal and relax.

The view is magnificent, the small private rooms give the feeling of being "in your own bubble", it's very pleasant. I recommend this place for a business or family meal as you can share a meal in complete privacy. The meal was delicious, nice presentation and very attentive staff.

The store we visited (located a few steps from the subway exit) was very interesting as you can find culinary specialities from all over Japan. It is very convenient to bring back presents for friends or family, while staying in Tokyo. The only small useful detail would be to have English translations for tourists.

There is a wide range of shops, and you can notice the "Kawaï" style which is very present in Japan and represents the "young" side of Tokyo. There are many things to see and discover, for different tastes and therefore different audiences. It is an unusual district that can attract many tourists. Cat Street is very charming, quiet and less crowded than the main streets of Harajuku, so attractive for tourists.

The night view of Tokyo is splendid. When sitting by the window, the view is breathtaking. The meal was delicious, I loved it!

Pleasant stay at the Prince Sunshine Hotel. The team was friendly and professional, answering all my questions. The konbini on the ground floor is quite practical as you can find something to eat within easy reach and at any time of the day. The view from the 36th floor is pretty. Breakfast was good, wide choice of dishes with a Japanese and Western buffet; I really appreciated the variety.

Everything went well, the flight was fine. We did not get food during the flight, but we did get a drink.

It was both a fun and interesting experience to be able to wear armor and to have the opportunity to feel like a real Samurai. The armor was quite heavy, I didn't expect it to weigh so much, but it makes you realize how complicated it must have been to become a Samurai. The TV channel did a little interview with us, it was fun to do it in armor with the friendly journalists curious to find out how we felt.

Incredible location! I had never seen this unique architecture before, and I think many tourists would be interested in visiting this Museum. I was impressed to learn that it took more than 10 linear kilometres of wood to build this large structure. The visit was very interesting, the exhibits in the gallery very beautiful and quite original.

It was interesting to see and understand why and how this type of medicine was created. The owner showed us and then taught us how to make small balls of medicine with traditional old utensils, and I must say that it was not easy to do. The packaging of the packs was nice thanks to the vintage style that is back in fashion.

The food was perfect. I loved the meal and the the staff was both professional and very nice to us. The black colour of the rice was original, and the rice was delicious.

The guide was very professional, she provided us with precise information, particularly about Japanese artists. The top floor with the play areas is beautiful in terms of design and also interesting for children who can play with their parents. The view is also beautiful and offers a beautiful panorama to take pictures.

It was a very rewarding and interesting visit, learning about the local speciality. The two owner sculptors we met were very kindly took the time to show us their work and then explain how they work. I think it is an attractive place for tourists curious to learn about Japanese culture and perhaps some will be interested in bringing back some authentic souvenirs handcrafted by carpentry professionals. The Zuisenji temple is magnificent, a wonderful place to visit!

The man who taught us how to work with wood to make our own cup was very nice, he really took the time to explain and show us how to proceed in detail and make our cups properly. To be able to bring back a souvenir from this experience was a really nice bonus. I highly recommend this activity!

A very authentic and charming small village. The architecture of the houses reminds me of the old style in some rural French regions. It really is a charming place. The viewpoint on the heights at the edge of the forest is very beautiful and allows you to take beautiful pictures.

Beautiful Ryokan room, sleeping on tatamis is always an authentic experience, and being able to sleep on futons is something original and nevertheless comfortable. Breakfast was very good. The owner was very friendly, he wanted to spend some time with us to talk, it was a pleasant shared moment.

The guide was very nice and professional. She answered all our questions.

It was a great experience to see and try to produce our own design on our own. We were able to see the different manufacturing steps. The last step is quite impressive when the molten tin has to be transferred into the pot. It is very nice to be able to keep a souvenir of this manual activity. I think this activity can interest many tourists!

Incredible, splendid, delicious! Watching a chef cook in front of you is always an interesting moment as in France it is quite rare to watch the chef prepare his dishes right in front of you. Moreover, as he was skilfully cutting the fish, we were, eyes wide open, very interested in observing how he cut then prepared the sushi. The quality of the sushi and sake was great; "oïchi"!

The most interesting part for me was to see the magnificent floats, the detail and precision, and the quality in terms of skill of Takaoka craftsmanship.

The Zuiryuji temple is really splendid, I could see the quite original style of the garden and also feel the strong spirituality that emerges from this site. I think all tourists are interested in visiting and discovering this type of very authentic place.

It was my first time taking a cable car in Japan, it was nice to be able to try it.

It was interesting to go up to the top.

Breakfast was good and varied. We had a very good time in the French restaurant, the food was perfect, the bread was good, we tasted Chardonnay white wine from Toyama; it was delicious! The service was attentive and very professional. In the evening we went to the hotel bar, the atmosphere was very warm, the cocktails perfect! By far, one of the best Mojito I have tasted in Japan.

A nice little walk, the small lake must be very beautiful in summer (we saw pictures) and the landscape must also be beautiful.

It was my first time on this type of transport in a tunnel. It was quite impressive technically and rather efficient.

The descent went very well, the tramway was full of people.

Transport was very fast, there were a lot of people inside, the weather totally grey so unfortunately impossible to see anything.

The height is quite impressive when you lean over to look down, the view and panorama was magnificent when we got a sunny spell. For families and couples, it can be a good activity to come here to walk and enjoy the scenery. Possibly go up to the panoramic restaurant to have a coffee or a meal and enjoy the beautiful view.

The restaurant was full as it was raining. Apart from that, it was pleasant, the view was also beautiful, and the curry was also delicious.

It was my first time taking this type of transport in a tunnel, a kind of bus with cables above like a tramway so I was surprised by the machinery. Before taking the trolleybus, we saw posters depicting the history of the different stages of the creation of the infrastructures, and we realized that it must have been technically very long and complicated, especially at that time. It is like a small museum dedicated to the history of the creation of this location. Very interesting.

The return journey was fine. The train left on time as always in Japan, which it is nice because trains in France are always late... The seats were very comfortable but since there is no longer any smoking areas, as on French trains, I recommend that smokers smoke before boarding.

This Fam trip was very interesting, I was delighted to discover the beautiful region of Toyama with its landscapes and gastronomy. Our guide took good care of us and tried to do the best he could despite the bad weather. I think Toyama and Tokyo are two attractive locations for tourists because there are many things to see and do. The fact that I was able to discover different activities was productive and attractive; I had a good time with the other journalist, Julien, who was also very friendly. I must come back to Toyama during the winter season to see the region with snow, with a little bit of luck and with better weather, I will definitely enjoy it!
