What to expect
Arashiyama is one of Kyoto's most iconic scenic spots. In spring, delicate pink cherry blossoms adorn the verdant mountains. Stroll across the Togetsukyo Bridge spanning the Oi River to admire the magnificent scenery, or wander into the serene Sagano Bamboo Grove to experience the tranquility of sunlight filtering through the green tunnel. During your free time here, you can choose a scenic café and enjoy a leisurely Kyoto moment.
Fushimi Jikkokubune Boat Ride—Quietly admire the pink reflections on the canal. Capturing that sense of "serene years" is the ultimate way to experience it! The banks of the Fushimi Canal are a famous photographic secret spot in Kyoto. Feel free to find the perfect angle to capture the charm of the quaint wooden Jikkokubune boats slowly gliding through the cherry blossom tunnel.
The cherry blossoms and lush green weeping willows intertwine on both sides, reflected in the tranquil river, forming a stunning "water mirror cherry blossom" scene. Stroll along the riverside path with the white-walled, black-tiled century-old "Gekkeikan" sake brewery as a backdrop. Every corner offers the chance to capture cinematic, retro-Japanese-style photos. Compared to the limitations on the boat, strolling along the shore allows you to capture the ideal spring scene you envision.
World Heritage Site Daigoji Temple—The Extravagant Cherry Blossom Viewing Left by Toyotomi Hideyoshi: Daigoji Temple is not only a World Heritage Site but also the location of the famous "Daigo Hanami" cherry blossom viewing in Japanese history. The warlord Toyotomi Hideyoshi personally planted 700 cherry trees here to enjoy the blossoms. The most unmissable sight here is the massive weeping cherry tree inside "Sanboin," cascading like a waterfall. Its vitality and beauty are breathtaking.

HuaHua is fun and engaging for the tour. Provided informations, helped photographing and answers for the group. Managed to see a lot of sakura blossoms during the trip. The only improvement to have is to have the bookings for the Fushimi Jikkoku-bune boats rides as the time is tight.
I made a reservation for the boat, but whether you book directly or through a travel agency, if you don't reserve in advance, you won't be able to board. They said the boat ride wasn't included, and I'm not sure if I misunderstood, or if they updated it later to exclude the boat ride. Anyway, I'm glad I received at least some compensation. Klook's service in this regard is good. However, both the boat and Korean language support were unavailable. Perhaps it's because there aren't many Koreans, but only English, Japanese, and Chinese were offered, so it was disappointing that Korean wasn't available despite being advertised as having Korean support when I booked. Still, it was convenient and nice to travel around by bus without any issues.
Thanks to our guide, Chichi, we had a very pleasant and enjoyable trip 🌸. She was incredibly kind and took great care of solo travelers. She was also very responsive, always prioritized safety, and provided a lot of helpful information. I would love to meet her again if I have the chance! Thanks to her, we made wonderful memories. Thank you! 🥰
Our tour guide, Huahua, was very entertaining, responsible, and even sang on the bus to keep everyone amused. She showed great enthusiasm for service, making it a wonderful experience. Additionally, this tour allowed us to see beautiful cherry blossoms, which I highly recommend.
Extremely satisfied. The tour guide was very kind and patient. There was also plenty of time to visit the attractions. The most beautiful and worthwhile scenery was the Shishizhou.
The tour guide and driver provided excellent service, making our trip enjoyable.
Our tour guide Huahua rocks! Huahua is the best! Very beautiful tour and lots of fun!
I clearly saw that it was distributed, and I even purchased a front seat. However, when we got to Jikkokubune, they just told us to look around and leave. So, I checked the reservation page again, and the product I booked had been changed to something else, then changed back to this product. LOL. I'm very annoyed because I paid extra for a front seat. They said there would be a Korean guide, but all they said was "Hello" and "Thank you." I understand that we had to take a mini-bus because there weren't many people, but the seat they gave me was wet and smelled like a rotten rag, so I couldn't sit there. They told me to sit on a folding chair, but a Chinese woman in the very back was sitting alone in a two-person seat and put her bag on the empty seat. LOL.
