Overall, the tour was great. We were lucky enough to be able to go to the 5th station. The guide was also very informative but he mumbled a lot. We kind of wasted quite a lot of time having to fetch those who took the overnight package to their hotels, with those of us going home by Shinkansen tagging along; could have went home earlier and avoid the rush hour. They should arrange for the hotel staff to pick them up instead.

The trip to Studio Ghibli was such an amazing and magical experience. Our guide was a really nice lady who told us lots of stuff that we may or may not have known and also showed us all the hidden details of the museum that we might have missed as normal visitors. We also had ample time to visit every nook and cranny of the museum. It was really worth it. A must-go for all fans of Studio Ghibli and Hayao Miyazaki's work.
