Review for: [English-Speaking Guide] Osaka Departure - Optional Kyoto or Osaka Drop-off

Oscar was really great. Very informative when explaining the history of tourist attractions during our tour. One thing that gave me an impression is that whe he said “how does japanese express their love to someone?” :) and somebody said “aishteru” but Oscar said “ The moon is so bright” What a revelation and a moment to remember.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had a wonderful day trip to Nara and Kyoto! Our tour guide, Tina, was very friendly, helpful, and kept everything well organized. July was hot and cloudy, so be prepared and stay hydrated. The deer in Nara are fun, but the male ones can be quite aggressive, they’ll smell the deer biscuits from far away! The Sagano Romantic Train offers beautiful scenery, but the ride takes about an hour, so there’s not much time left to explore other places. Overall, it was a great experience and I’d definitely recommend this tour.

We had an amazing one-day tour covering Nara, Arashiyama, the Bamboo Forest, and Kimono Forest. A special thanks to our guide, Scarlett, who made the experience unforgettable. Despite managing a group of 41 people, she kept everything well organized and always made sure everyone knew the meeting times and locations. Her English was excellent, and she shared fascinating stories about the history of Osaka, Nara, and Kyoto. Before visiting Nara Park, she explained how to safely interact with and feed the deer, which was very helpful. Throughout the day, she was cheerful, patient, and even took beautiful photos for everyone. The itinerary was well planned, and we explored all the major attractions comfortably before returning safely to Osaka. Scarlett's knowledge, kindness, and enthusiasm made this tour truly special. Highly recommended!
