Kobe

Had a wonderful day exploring Himeji, Kobe, and Katsuoji! Our first stop was Himeji Castle. It’s huge, and those steep staircases really made me wonder how anyone could have conquered this castle back then! So glad this beautiful piece of history has been preserved. Some areas are still under renovation, but the main keep is in great condition. I also got some cute souvenirs and sweets before leaving! Next was Kobe Harborland, Umie & Mosaic for lunch and a shopping. We could see Kobe Port Tower nearby, although the weather wasn’t great, so I couldn’t get very close. We ended the day at Katsuoji Temple. I wasn’t able to make it all the way up to the main temple, but the entrance and gardens were already beautiful and breathtaking. A big thank you to Ms. Wenling Huang of Lion Travel for taking such good care of us, keeping us well-informed throughout the tour. She always made sure I was okay. ❤️ And thanks to Kho-san, our amazing chauffeur, for getting us safely to every destination.

This was truly an amazing experience! I highly recommend our dedicated tour guide, Nick. He was very friendly and came prepared with a book of picture cards, offering humorous and lively explanations that made the entire trip rich and diverse. Himeji Castle in August can only be described as scorching hot, but Nick thoughtfully provided salt candies to help us prevent heatstroke. He guided us through the entire castle, revealing its charming splendor and teaching us so much! At every attraction, he made sure to tell us about local characteristics and recommend local specialties. In just one day, I gained a deeper understanding and a more lasting impression of Osaka and Kobe! I hope to have the chance to join such a wonderful tour again. Everyone should definitely support Nick! :)

Thanks to Guide Jo Jun-young's kind and detailed explanations and thoughtful guidance throughout the trip, we were able to travel very comfortably! Since it was a family trip, there were many things to consider, but thanks to his excellent care, from transportation to explanations of tourist attractions, our whole family enjoyed the trip. 😊 We made many wonderful memories thanks to him. Thank you, Guide Jo Jun-young! I highly recommend him.

nice place to experience the legendary Kobe Beef. highly recommended when visiting Kobe. The staff who served us, Mr. Paolo was friendly and nice.

This is the perefect itinerary for us because it starts at 11 am so we didn't have to wake up super ealry. It also allows us to explore the locations on our own with enough time without feeling rushed. Cave was an excellent guide! We were the only English-speaking tourist in the group but he made sure that we know everything that we needed, even if he had to repeat all that he said from Mandarin to English.

they don't give any map of the places, they just drop and go. Overall good experience.

This is a tour that is worth taking two, three, or even more times!!! 🤩💕 The guide was so kind and took care of every single little detail, from A to Z. Since I was traveling with my parents, they loved it so, so, so much 👍 and keep saying they really want to go again 🥹🧡. I think this is the only tour that includes Kobe Suma Sea World among the Kobe tours ☺️. Especially the dolphin show 🐋 and killer whale show 🐳—you MUST!!!!! see them, and you won't regret it! My parents loved it so much and were still talking about how memorable it was the next day 🥰. While looking around the aquarium, the guide explained things about the fish one by one, giving us such detailed information. Thanks to that, we left knowing about many different types of fish and various sea life ☺️. I really wanted to take my parents to Kobe Suma Sea World, and I thought the night view tour would be nice, so I booked it, and I feel like it was a choice with zero regrets! After that, we watched the sunset at the beach, took pictures, checked out the famous Starbucks ⭐️, looked around the streets there, and then went to see the night view, took more pictures 🎡, and had a meal. The restaurant recommended by the guide was delicious 😋, and get this: Sapporo draft beer there is only 199 yen!!!!!!! 🍺 Even including tax, it's 218 yen. It's a great chance to enjoy cheap Sapporo draft beer 👍, and it's just right before heading home 😊. The guide even takes pictures for you~~ Guide Cho Jun-young and the female guide who came along were both so kind. I asked about some minor personal things 🥹, and they paid attention to every little detail and helped me out so thoughtfully. Thank you so much 🧡. Thanks to our guides, we made so many wonderful memories with my parents 🩷🩷🩷. Thank you 🥰❤️❤️

We had a great time in Himeji and Kobe! The atmosphere was so peaceful… slow, calm, and serene. Mr. Cao is a great driver! He is very approachable, friendly, and organized, which made the whole trip even more enjoyable. Overall, it was a wonderful experience! ✨

We had a wonderful experience with our private car charter in Kyoto! A special thank you to our driver, Aki, who was incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating throughout our very long day. The car was immaculately clean, luxurious, spacious, and extremely comfortable, which made traveling around Kyoto throughout the day so enjoyable. Aki never made us feel rushed and allowed us to truly enjoy each stop and take in the beauty of Kyoto. More than just transportation, Aki helped make our day an experience filled with wonderful memories that we will treasure from our visit to Japan. His kindness, patience, and professionalism made such a difference. We are incredibly grateful and would highly recommend this private car charter—and especially Aki—to anyone visiting Kyoto! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
