Check whether your bus has sightseeing stops

Some Lake Tazawa loop services stop for 20 minutes at Katajiri and ten at Gozanoishi Shrine. Reboard the same bus before the break ends. Some early-morning and evening services have no sightseeing stops; others do not run on weekends, public holidays or designated holiday periods. Check both stop and non-operating markings for your date. To change buses, check ticket conditions and extra fares separately.
