Our trip through the backstreets of Toyama will begin with a ride on the local bus through the city to the riverside neighborhood. After arriving at our stop we will start our walk along the river past jizo statues and gardens tended by the residents. When we reach the spring water source we can bottle and drink the cold fresh water and learn about the history of the spring. In fact, locals come at all hours to bottle this water for use at home. We will continue our walk to the shopping street and stop by the grocery store to buy local vegetables for lunch and see what the seasons have to offer. Afterward, we will continue our stroll and arrive at our final destination, a guesthouse where we will learn how to make onigiri with a variety of fillings. Then you can enjoy your handmade onigiri with miso soup for lunch. The rice and miso soup will be made with spring water and local vegetables. This tour is a perfect chance to see a different side of Japan: the Toyama slow life!

街中を流れる小さな川の側で湧水スポットが幾つかあって、地元民が日常的に使っているのを実際の見て、なんと豊かな暮らしができるんだろうと感動した。ウォーキングも飽きずにできたし、マーケットでも大勢の市民が買い物していて活気がありよかった。ゲストハウスでのおにぎり体験も、お米がとっても美味しく楽しい時間だった。とても充実したツアーだったと思う

主人夫婦非常友好和誠實,行程也非常愉快。 我們游覽的路线自然豐富,風景優美,使我們满意。 尤其讓我們印象深刻的是,当地人天天在城區中打泉水,用来做飯、煮咖啡和满足其他日常需求。 此外,泉水還來自雄偉美麗的立山山脈。 天氣晴朗時,從富山市眺望白雪皑皑的群山,真是美不勝收! 当然,用泉水煮飯做成的飯團也非常美味!!

The guide was incredibly friendly, and I had a great time exploring while learning about the local culture. It was wonderful to interact with the locals at the spring spots. Most of all, making my own original onigiri lunch with delicious water and fresh ingredients was the absolute best!
