Fushimi Sake Village tours

We had an amazing day tour exploring Uji and Kyoto, and it was truly a memorable experience! Our tour took us to the stunning Byodo-in Temple, the iconic Fushimi Inari Shrine, and the peaceful Katsuo-ji Temple—each place offering a unique glimpse into Japan’s rich history and culture. What made the trip even more special was our tour guide, Huā Huā. He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive throughout the journey. His storytelling brought each location to life, and he made sure everyone was comfortable and engaged from start to finish. You can really see his passion for guiding and sharing the beauty of Japan. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience Kyoto and Uji more deeply. With Huā Huā leading the way, you’re in for a meaningful and enjoyable adventure. Thank you for an unforgettable day!

The itinerary was absolutely fantastic! We started in Nara, where the deer-feeding experience was delightful, and the deer were incredibly cute. On the bus, our tour guide, Willa, patiently explained the precautions we needed to take when feeding the deer, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience. Next, we headed to Arashiyama for a relaxing lunch and strolled around, admiring the beauty of the bamboo forest, which was incredibly relaxing. A particularly pleasant surprise was finding Rilakkuma, Miffy, and Snoopy specialty shops, along with other unique stores. After that, we arrived in Kyoto and visited the main Chiikawa store, where we bought special Kyoto Chiikawa figurines. Of course, the red "Senbon Torii" (thousands of torii gates) at Fushimi Inari Shrine were breathtaking, and the spectacular view made for incredibly beautiful photos. Our tour guide, Fred, shared many local stories with us, giving us a deeper understanding and experience of the local culture. This trip left a deep impression on us in every location, leaving us with unforgettable memories.

This tour was simply amazing perfectly designed, well-paced, and filled with unique spots that gave us a true feel of the local culture. Every stop had something special: beautiful views, rich history, and moments of wonder. But what truly made it unforgettable was Etta, our guide. Her passion and energy were contagious, and her English was absolutely flawless — clear, expressive, and natural, making everything easy to follow and deeply engaging. She’s not just knowledgeable, but a gifted storyteller who brings each place to life. Her kindness, humor, and care made us feel like more than just tourists. It was one of the best experiences we’ve had on any trip, and Etta played the biggest part in that. If you ever have the chance to do this tour with her, take it you’ll walk away informed, inspired, and completely moved. Thank you, Etta, for an unforgettable day!

First of all - Lucia was amazing! so friendly and kind. Apart for showing us the best places to visit and sharing knowledge of them, she also organised helpfull whatsapp messages including location in maps so visiting was a breeze! Uji exceeded my expectations, honestly. i thought the deer would be the best part!

this was the very best tour I have had in Japan! our tour guide Amanda was great! fluent in English and provided us some fun facts about uji. we’ve had the best pictures captured that are instagram worthy!

Amy was a wonderful tour guide. She was very friendly and took some lovely photos for us. Very kind and informative on the places we were going to. The tour was fast paced but we were able to experience everything we wanted. Highly recommended if you are short on time and want to experience as many things as possible.

Ako was a wonderful guide. I'd recommend this tour for not only fans of matcha, but those interested in learning more of the history in Uji City.

I had a great time on this walking tour! It was awesome getting to visit a number different temples and shrines! My tour guide was very knowledgeable and professional. The tour starts early to limit the crowds and is a lot of walking, so be prepared! Overall, I had a very enjoyable tour and it was around New Years, so it was very exciting!
