Hyogo Tours

The tour was conducted in Chinese, which I didn’t know beforehand, haha! So I couldn’t really understand any of the explanations since everything was in Chinese. Other than that, I’m still glad I joined this tour because visiting these three destinations on my own would have been quite difficult. Overall, it was a convenient way to see all three places in one day!

Aquesta va ser una experiència realment fantàstica, i he de recomanar molt el nostre dedicat guia, Nick. La seva actitud amable, les seves targetes il·lustrades i les seves explicacions vives i humorístiques van fer que tot el viatge fos ric i variat! El castell de Himeji a l'agost només es pot descriure com a extremadament calorós, però Nick va preparar caramels de sal per ajudar-nos a prevenir el cop de calor. Ens va guiar durant tot el recorregut, mostrant-nos l'encantador castell de Himeji i ens va ensenyar molt. A cada aturada, no va oblidar explicar-nos les característiques locals i recomanar-nos especialitats. En només un dia, vaig obtenir una comprensió més profunda i una imaginació més rica d'Osaka i Kobe! Espero tenir l'oportunitat d'unir-me a un grup tan meravellós la propera vegada. Tothom hauria de donar suport a Nick! :)

This Kumano Kodo day trip was a perfect experience, and I must highly recommend our guide, Yan! The guide is Chinese, so there was absolutely no language barrier throughout the entire trip. They served as both driver and guide, meticulously arranging everything, making the trip incredibly hassle-free. Before arriving at each attraction, the guide would provide detailed explanations of its history and key highlights. They thoughtfully advised us on how to best experience each site, what specific sights to focus on, and clearly communicated the duration of free time and the meeting time for our return. This meant we didn't have to worry about planning ourselves, and the pace of the trip was just right. The entire itinerary, from the service area, Kumano Hongu Taisha, Otorii, and collecting stamps at Oyu no Hara, to Nachi Taisha, Seiganto-ji Temple, Hiro Shrine, Daimonzaka, and Hayatama Taisha, concluding with a visit to the Totsukawa Onsen footbath, featured detailed and easy-to-understand explanations at every stop. The guide eloquently shared the cultural stories behind the Kumano Sanzan, allowing us to grasp the profound heritage behind these World Heritage sites, even without prior research. The guide's service attitude was gentle and attentive, and their driving was smooth and safe. They never took detours or rushed the itinerary. There was no pressure throughout the trip, allowing ample time for photos, leisurely strolls, and worship. At the end, there was even plenty of time to soak our feet in the footbath to relieve travel fatigue. I was initially concerned about the inconveniences of traveling alone in a foreign country, but thankfully, this Chinese-speaking guide provided meticulous care throughout the journey. The itinerary was both enriching and relaxed, allowing for a deep appreciation of the sacred Kumano landscape. The overall value for money was excellent. For anyone planning a day trip to Kumano, I strongly recommend Guide Yan!

This is a great trip for the last few days of a vacation, perfect for winding down, haha. It's very beautiful and the itinerary is relaxed. The flower corridor is wonderful and cool, and the waffles and grapes are delicious. The view was excellent on the day we went. The guide is a very diligent and responsible person, and I enjoyed the little stories he shared. Since I was traveling alone, the guide, Hua Hua, also helped me take photos, which I really appreciated. Overall, I think it was a fantastic trip.

Aquest és l'itinerari perfecte per a nosaltres perquè comença a les 11 del matí, així que no vam haver de llevar-nos molt d'hora. També ens permet explorar els llocs pel nostre compte amb prou temps sense sentir-nos apressats. Cave va ser un guia excel·lent! Érem els únics turistes de parla anglesa del grup, però es va assegurar que sabéssim tot el que necessitàvem, fins i tot si havia de repetir tot el que deia del mandarí a l'anglès.

Ens va encantar molt el tour i vam tenir una experiència molt emocionant en aquest viatge. Només que el temps per a cada parada és massa curt, però en general encara és acceptable. La nostra guia, la Yuki, és molt talentosa amb coneixements multilingües en xinès, japonès, coreà i anglès, i va respondre totes les nostres preguntes amb paciència. Vam gaudir molt d'aquesta excursió d'un dia.

The itinerary was relaxing, and our guide, Gary, was extremely professional, attentive, and responsible. His explanations were lively and engaging, the schedule was well-organized, and he took excellent care of everyone in the group, making the entire trip even more perfect. Thank you very much; he deserves a five-star recommendation!

wonderful tour, enjoyed the walk around ikeda where the cup noodle museum is located, Arima town is beautiful , must wear sneakers for the long walk. Enjoyed all the activities, thanks to Junyoung our guide who snapped amazing photos for the group

The driver was excellent and drove very safely. From start to finish, the trip felt like being guided by a friend. He took care of my family and me meticulously. The car was clean, and the itinerary was comfortably and appropriately arranged. Five-star rating!
