What to expect

💥Pre-departure notice: On the evening before your departure, between approximately 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM, we will send you detailed information about your tour guide and vehicle via email. Please be sure to check it promptly.💥 💥Today, we will visit a total of three attractions: Ine no Funaya (boat houses), Amanohashidate, and Miyama Kayabuki no Sato (thatched-roof village). It’s a full itinerary, so let’s get started now!💥

  • First stop: ⛵Ine no Funaya (boat houses). Ine Town is rated by the Japanese as one of Japan's 18 most beautiful towns and villages. It features unique waterfront boat house architecture and offers unspoiled scenery that you won't find in typical tourist destinations.
  • Second stop: 🏝Amanohashidate Observatory. It is one of Japan's three most scenic spots. It has about 8,000 pine trees of various sizes, with white sandy beaches on both the east and west sides, creating a special natural landscape. Its shape resembles a bridge stretching diagonally towards the sky, hence the name "Amanohashidate" (bridge to heaven). Here, you can also find a scenic cable car, Chionji Temple, Monju Hall, and many other attractions to see.
  • Third stop: 🌈Kyoto Thatched Village - Miyama Kayabuki Village, is a secluded paradise away from the hustle and bustle of the city. The village is nestled in a valley of over 800 meters, with more than 50 thatched-roof houses, nearly 40 of which are well-preserved. The houses are shaped like hands clasped in prayer, with thatched roofs and without using a single nail. The thatch is replaced every thirty to forty years. The village scenery is picturesque, and the tranquil rural landscape makes you feel as if you are in a fairy tale world. It is an excellent place to experience the rustic original flavor of rural Japan. You can also enjoy Miyama milk ice cream here and check out the red mailbox, capturing every moment of Miyama. 🎉These attractions each have their own unique characteristics, forming a one-day tour of Kyoto’s hidden gems. Whether it’s natural beauty or cultural experience, you will gain many wonderful memories. Come join us and explore the charm of Kyoto together, and share this joy!🎉

Review for: Meeting point (includes ropeway tickets and sightseeing boat tickets)

A wonderful experience. Although the weather conditions were not ideal, the trip still went smoothly. I was especially impressed with our young tour guide, Wang Qi. He could speak multiple languages to communicate and assist everyone in the group. He was very enthusiastic and thoughtful.

This day trip to Ine Funaya, Amanohashidate, and Miyama Town, departing from Osaka, was a fantastic experience! Our guide, Liuhua, was professional and attentive, proactively contacting us before the trip via WhatsApp / WeChat / LINE to provide detailed reminders about the meeting point, time, and tour bus license plate number, which made us feel very reassured. The itinerary was well-organized, and before arriving at each attraction, Liuhua clearly explained the site's details, meeting time, and flow. The scenery that day was incredibly pleasant; whether it was the grandeur of Amanohashidate, the tranquility of Ine Funaya, or the rustic charm of Miyama's thatched-roof houses, everything was captivating. I highly recommend this tour to travelers who want to easily explore the beautiful outskirts of Kyoto!

The day before the trip, meeting information will be sent via email. We gathered early in the morning at Exit 2 of Nihonbashi, where tour leader Li Songlan waited for tourists holding a sign. Before arriving at each attraction, the tour leader also provided explanations in multiple languages. Ine Funaya (where you can feed seagulls and eagles from a boat) is perfect for both adults and children, though unfortunately, the boathouses can only be viewed from a distance on the boat. We took a walk near Amanohashidate (we didn't visit Chionji Temple because the cable car line was too long). The water was very clear, and the environment was peaceful and beautiful. I recommend bringing your own sandwiches or rice balls to have enough time to see everything. Miyama-cho Thatched Village is a tranquil village where the main activity is to appreciate the local customs. This trip involved a relatively long drive, so the itinerary was a bit tight, but we had opportunities to rest along the way. Arranging a day trip on a sightseeing bus during our free time in Osaka was truly a wise decision! I highly recommend tour guide Li Songlan; she was excellent!

First of all, thank you so much for the organization, and a huge thank you to our tour guide, Dong. He said it was his first tour, but it seems like he has it in his blood! He's a very funny guy and speaks several languages ​​very well, including English and Chinese! 🙇 Our first destination was the fishing village of Ine, an incredibly beautiful and peaceful place with a picturesque landscape! ❤️ Our second destination was Amanohashidate Viewland, also a picture-perfect place. We took the chairlift up and had an incredible view from there. The attractions at the viewpoint are great for all ages! The little town at the foot of the mountain is also beautiful, especially the temple complex near the parking lot! Finally, we visited the village of Miyama, which has such a unique setting. The thatched roofs are especially amazing. There's also a temple there that, compared to the temples in the city, has a truly mystical aura. All in all, a wonderful tour. Best regards, Marcell
