We had the BEST time at Akito’s tea tour. Whether or not you enjoy drinking tea you will enjoy this tour!! The tea fields are so beautiful and picturesque, we got to pick tea leaves, tried many delicious teas, and Akito was so lovely and knowledgeable. He knew the answer to every question, and we asked a LOT of questions! Not only did we have so much fun but we learnt a lot. :) Highly recommend!
