Well at one point, I had thought of staying in port for Niigata but I have found out that it might be a hidden gem. Norwegian offers us a few excursions, more than most of the ports on my cruise. And I am having trouble deciding. I have watched youtube videos and done some research.
If anyone on forum has been to any of these places, I would be glad for feedback:
Yahiko Shrine and Mt Yahiko
Looks so awesome and beautiful
Shirone Kite Museum and Niigata City History Museum
I truly loved the Kite Museum. The Niigata City History Museum was just ok from youtube but maybe someone has been to the History Museum and has a different opinion.
Northern Culture Museum
The title and description on the Norwegian site was ok but after watching yoputube videos, it became a WOW
Maybe someone on Forum can help me lean more towards one of the three. I can only pick one but all three seem to be winner.s
