Really enjoyed this tour. We lucked out with multi lingual Charles who was excellent throughout - lots of knowledge and insight, helpful, and good fun. From the 07:45 pick up to drop off the trip was very well run and our driver managed to beat the traffic too giving us more time to explore beautiful Ine Bay. The boat ride was eventful with the seagulls, almost Hitchcockian! The rain came on at Amanohashidate however the views were still good and would definitely recommend the chair lift over the monorail. good value, fun trip, and so good to get out of the noise of Dotonbori for the day.

Five-star review! Highly recommend tour guide Liao Yuming! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I had a fantastic experience on the Kyoto Amanohashidate day tour this time, and I especially want to praise Mr. Liao Yuming! Tour guide Liao is very attentive. When taking the cable car, he patiently waited until all passengers successfully boarded before leaving, which made everyone feel very secure. Furthermore, his time management was excellent, and the itinerary ran smoothly, ensuring every tourist had a wonderful time. The overall trip was delightful! The biggest surprise was right before getting off the bus, when Tour Guide Liao thoughtfully introduced local Japanese shopping and dining tips (along with coupon information). I truly felt his professionalism and passion. If I travel to Japan again next time, I will definitely sign up again! Highly recommended to everyone!

Our tour guide, Zoya was superb. Fluent communication, experienced and friendly. The entire tour was smooth. The scenery was beautiful, although the weather was not really pleasant, but definitely worth the time and money. Highly recommended.

We’re so glad we decided to book our group tour with GoGoDay! From start to finish, everything was very well organised, making our trip smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free. A special thank you to our wonderful tour guide, Lui, who was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and helpful throughout the trip. We really appreciated how Lui shared interesting historical and cultural background at every place we visited. Overall, we had a fantastic experience with GoGoDay and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a well-organised, enjoyable, and memorable group tour.

Our tour guide, Nick, is fluent in both English and Mandarin, making communication effortless. His explanations are humorous and engaging, creating a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere throughout the trip. He is very attentive to the group, carefully observing everyone's needs, which made us feel at ease. The introductions to the attractions were detailed and rich in content, including both historical backgrounds and interesting anecdotes, which helped everyone feel more immersed. The scenery along the way was beautiful, with mountains and rivers blending together, truly refreshing the mind. The entire itinerary was well-arranged, with a suitable pace, allowing us to appreciate the beautiful sights and enjoy the guide's wonderful commentary. The group members interacted well with each other, creating a harmonious atmosphere. The trip was filled with laughter and memories, leaving a deep impression and making it highly recommendable.

Last time, I visited Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, so this time I went to places I hadn't seen before. It was just before a long holiday, so there weren't many people, and it was wonderfully peaceful and quiet! When you actually see it, it's not so much 'Wow, that's amazing!' but rather beautiful scenery, the path you walk while admiring that scenery, various photos taken at photo spots, and an unexpected seagull zoo feeding (making eye contact with seagulls and hawks). I didn't have high expectations, but it was fun! The only downside is that the travel time is a bit long if you depart from Osaka! However, our guide, MICA, explained many things about Japan so well and took such beautiful photos that I even changed my KakaoTalk profile picture for the first time in a while! 😄

Maggie has been an excellent tour guide! This was my first time booking a group tour and I was hesitant at first but I’m glad I did. The tour was paced well, I did not feel rushed and I honestly felt that the alloted time for each location was sufficient enough to get a feel and have fun on each places. We were in Ine Bay from 1015H-1055H, which includes the boat ride. A tip that I would give if you’re not into feeding seagulls is to skip the boat ride and just explore the Ine bay/ boathouses by foot. Next stop was Amanohashidate and we were there for 2hrs, then last stop was the Miyama thatched village which was phenomenal. Make sure to try their milk!! 🫶🏼

GREAT TOUR! lead by tour guide that can converse in eng chinese and japanese! well versed. the tour journey was definitely worth it. bus ride was 4 hours to and fro. the views were scenic and we get to feed seagulls!

On September 24th, we took a tour of Kyoto guided by MIKA, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The instructions for the meeting point and updates upon arriving in Kyoto were seamless, allowing us on-time tour departure without any delays. During the journey, we were deeply moved by our guide's detailed explanations and her passionate dedication in carefully checking whether everyone wanted to ride the amusement park lift and the sightseeing boat upon arrival. The tour itinerary and optional add-ons (the lift up to Amanohashidate Amusement Park and the Ine Bay sightseeing boat) were not excessive; they were essential components for an efficient tour, which made purchasing the full package feel very rewarding and worthwhile. The meal during the tour was also not bad in terms of saving time. Given the rather tight schedule, we think it was much better to grab a quick bite rather than searching for a restaurant and waiting in line, allowing us to spend ample time at the observation deck. Originally, we planned to rent a car and leave Kyoto early in the morning, but considering the difficulty of driving (unlike Korea, regional roads feature strict two-lane round-trip highway sections, speed limits, and strict railroad crossings) and driving in an unfamiliar area for the first time, choosing this tour over a self-drive rental trip was definitely the better choice. Based on this wonderful tour experience, we feel confident that next time we can comfortably travel to Amanohashidate and Ine on our own using a rental car. Thanks to our guide MIKA, who enthusiastically responded to all our questions, helped with souvenirs, and recommended great photo spots throughout the tour, it became a truly memorable experience. Although the physical distance and road conditions made for a tight schedule, the tour itinerary was exceptionally well-organized and fulfilling.
