Their itinerary was:
Day 1 :
JR Express train

AKAMATSU train by Kyoto Tango Railway
Nishi Maizuru Station – Amanohashidate
Amanohashidate sightseeing
– Amanohashidate View Land (scenic view point)
– Chionji Temple
– Chieno Mochi Tea House
Centrale Hotel Kyotango (accommodation and dinner)
– Onsen Spa
– Crab Dinner
Day 2 :
Ine sightseeing
– Ine bay cruise by fishing boat taxi
– KAISENDON (fresh sashimi rice bowl) lunch
One of highlights of Day 1 is AKAMATSU train ride.
AKAMATSU is one of sightseeing trains of Kyoto Tango Railway, which runs between Nishimaizuru and Amanohashidate.
AKAMATSU sightseeing train is reservation required.

Climax of AKAMATSU ride is “crossing the iron bridge over Yuragawa river.”
The bridge is located close to the mouth of a river. 
After the bridge, AKAMATSU runs along with the coast line and mountains.
Super enjoyable and relaxing ride lasts about 40-50 min (depends on train schedule). If you need more information, contact Kyoto Tango Railway
or us .
