Какво да правите в Byodo-in

Actually, I had already been to all three spots on this itinerary, and I had visited Uji just two months ago. However, revisiting old places has a different charm. This tour turned out to be unexpectedly small, with only six participants, plus the driver, Xiao Ge, and the tour guide, Tina. I was the only Chinese-speaking tour member, so Tina really worked hard. After explaining everything in English, she would explain it all over again in Chinese. Although I understood most of the English, hearing things in my native language always gives me a more precise understanding. Nowadays, these one-day tours use various messaging apps. Tina would explain the next itinerary and introduce the destination on the bus ride there, using a tablet to show photos and maps. She was very dedicated and attentive. She would then send all this information to the messaging apps (LINE, WhatsApp, WeChat) so you could check it or use it for navigation during your free time. She would also announce the meeting times here. Everyone was extremely punctual on this tour; not a single person kept the group waiting at any of the stops 👍. My personal habit when traveling independently in Japan is to usually join one or two tours per trip to catch up on some sightseeing spots I might have missed. This guided tour experience ranks as the absolute best out of the ten or twenty times I've done it 🥇. Thank you, tour guide Tina, thank you driver Xiao Ge, and thank you to the fellow group members.

I had an amazing experience on this trip! ❤️ Everything was well organized, the places were beautiful, and I enjoyed every moment. A special shoutout to our guide, CC, who was incredibly sweet, friendly, and helpful throughout the journey. She made the whole experience even more enjoyable with her lovely personality and positive energy. 🥰 Highly recommend this trip to anyone visiting Japan. Definitely one of the highlights of my trip! 🇯🇵✨

It was a last minute booking just a night before and got picked on time at our hotel. The tour was full of interesting information of the different sites we're about to visit and thanks to our charming and friendly guide CC who even sang for us as we're heading back to Osaka. The interaction with the deer's at Nara park is one of the unforgettable experience with the dear bowing down their heads along with you. I just love it. Till next time Japan.

Had a great tour with our guide, Choi Intark. We were the only group for the tour so the experience was very personalized. Choi was super friendly and knowledgeable about the places we went to. There was ample free time given for each location. The vehicle used was also clean and comforatable.

Santos made our tour an unforgettable experience. From the very beginning, he was friendly, professional, and incredibly knowledgeable. He shared fascinating insights about the area, answered all our questions, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and included throughout the day. His enthusiasm and attention to detail really stood out. The tour was well-organised, relaxed, and full of memorable moments, thanks in large part to Santos’s warm personality and expertise. He went above and beyond to make the experience special. And to top it off. He got every group a gift of matcha cookies that he didn’t have to do! such an amazing gesture.

We were very satisfied with our full-day trip to Nara and Uji, and I must give our guide, Ms. Mori, a five-star rating. She was very professional and friendly, switching seamlessly between English, Chinese, and Japanese throughout the tour. She explained each attraction carefully and patiently, and clearly arranged all the pick-up and drop-off points. Her thoughtfulness and attention to detail made us feel very comfortable. I left the group in Uji to go to Kyoto on my own, and Ms. Mori even took me almost all the way to JR Nara Station, which I greatly appreciate! The driver was also very professional, drove smoothly, and helped with our luggage. Thank you! I highly recommend this tour; the pace was relaxed yet fulfilling, and the overall experience was excellent. I truly recommend it to everyone!

Хуахуа беше абсолютно най-добрият екскурзовод! След като две други обиколки бяха отменени заради тайфуна, имахме късмета да успеем да резервираме тази обиколка. Всъщност беше благословия, защото това беше една от най-добрите обиколки, на които сме били! Хуахуа беше отличен екскурзовод и се погрижи да знаем подробности и история за всяка спирка, която направихме. Той дори ни каза къде можем да намерим най-добрата матча в Уджи! Обиколката включваше Уджи, Бьодо, храма Кифуне и храма Кацуо-джи. Успяхме да посетим всяка спирка с достатъчно време за разходка и пазаруване! Благодарим на Хуахуа и неговия красив певчески глас за това, че ни осигуриха най-добрата обиколка в Осака!

We had a wonderful time seeing the Katsuoji Temple, Uji, and Fushimi Inari. Our guide, Zoey, was very nice and cheerful; describing the history and importance of the places we went to. She also provided recommendations on places to eat in Uji, and helped us with any questions we have. I highly recommend this tour and Zoey as our tour guide! The day spent was unforgettable and worthwhile.

The tour was smooth and fun. Shine was very informative and gave us instructions before we go on our own.
