What to expect



























Reviews
During our trip to Japan, we stayed in Kyoto. My husband and I wanted to visit Lake Biwa, but since we were traveling independently, we opted for a convenient one-day tour. It was great not having to worry about transportation, and our tour guide was very professional, able to switch between Chinese, Japanese, and English.
Yesterday, I participated in the Lake Biwa day tour, and the entire experience was excellent! I especially want to commend our tour guide, Feifei ❤️. Feifei was very gentle and friendly, providing detailed explanations for each attraction along the way. She didn't just briefly mention them; she clearly described the unique features and must-see spots, allowing us to learn more about the local area while enjoying our visit. What was most thoughtful was that, in addition to the attractions, Feifei also introduced local delicacies, recommended ways to eat them, and other things worth trying. We followed her recommendations, and everything was truly delicious! 😋 Throughout the day, we could feel that Feifei was very dedicated, meticulous, and took great care of the group members, making the entire Lake Biwa trip very relaxed and enjoyable, leaving us with wonderful memories. We are truly grateful to Feifei for leading us that day, and we hope the company will properly recognize such an outstanding and dedicated tour guide! 👏🏻❤️ This experience left us very satisfied. The next time we have the opportunity to travel to Japan, we would be willing to join your tours again, and we hope to meet Feifei again!
Pack your own brunch or lunch and water. There is almost no time to have a meal because of the tight schedule. If you suffer from car sick, this trip might not be for you. There were a total of four 40 minutes drive from place to place and another 4 hours to and fro Osaka! Our guide Liu was very friendly and helpful which made the trip okay.
great relaxing day out. Casper the tour guide was lovely and very knowledgeable
Casper is amazing! He's the best guide I've had on the many tours I've taken. The four Lake Biwa spots we visited this time were all beautiful. I recommend everyone to participate in this tour! I look forward to participating again next time during the snowy season or the autumn foliage season!
