Things to do in Otagi Nenbutsuji Temple

My family, consisting of my spouse and one high school-aged child, initially planned a free-and-easy trip to Kyoto. After much deliberation, we decided on a Kyoto bus tour, and I truly believe it was the best choice we could have made. We went on a tour with Guide Park In-san, and from the moment we departed until we were dropped off, he was incredibly attentive, cheerful, and meticulous in taking care of all the travelers. He also provided a plan that allowed us to make the most of our time, giving us a day that would have been impossible to experience on a self-guided trip. As a side note, Guide Park In-san has a wonderful voice, which made his explanations very engaging and easy to follow. He also took beautiful family photos for us, and I was very satisfied that we weren't just herded around in a large group, but rather had the freedom to explore at our own pace. I've highly recommended Guide Park In-san from 'Yeohaenghan Geureut' to many family travelers I know who are going to Osaka, urging them to definitely try 'Yeohaenghan Geureut'! Thanks to 'Yeohaenghan Geureut', my trip to Kyoto was so satisfying that I want to go again, and it feels like I received a wonderful memory as a gift. Thank you for a delightful trip!

Our guide was incredibly kind and clearly went out of their way to provide excellent service. One person in our group had a backache and found walking for too long difficult, but we took appropriate breaks and enjoyed sightseeing at a comfortable pace. It was a delightful trip.

You'll need a ride to Kameoka Station. Once you exit the station, turn left, and there will be signs guiding you to the boarding area. The crew members are very entertaining, so if you're an extrovert, remember to give them positive feedback! Those sitting on either side of the boat should remember to pull the green tarp down properly, but don't pull it up too high, as water might splash in from below, and your shoes will definitely get wet! We went too early in the season for our boat ride; if you go during cherry blossom season or autumn foliage season, you'll definitely see even more beautiful scenery! But the boat ride itself was a really great experience, much like whitewater rafting.

it was a really eye opening experience for me to watch a performance like this and also have an opportunity during Q&A to understand more about the Maiko we met. Rin the guide was also super helpful and nice :)

Our tour leader, Tina, was very professional and provided detailed and clear explanations. All relevant information was shared promptly in the group chat, and she clearly communicated meeting times and locations, ensuring everyone was well-informed about the itinerary. The entire trip was smoothly organized, the atmosphere was pleasant, and it was a truly wonderful travel experience. 😊

what a great tour we had so much fun riding through the streets of Kyoto , our guide Benjamin was fantastic and took the time explaining things to us and for us to take photos . Stopped for lunch at a lovely restaurant. The places we stopped at were fantastic and everything that we wanted to see. Great day out

our tour guide Junkai Wu was wonderful! very helpful and informative! we loved this tour ❤️

Luckily, the weather was great, perfect for walking around, and the sky looked beautifully blue in photos. Thanks to our guide, Shin Yoon-kyung, who always kept a smile, we had a wonderful time. She enthusiastically took photos for us at Kinkaku-ji Temple and even made restaurant reservations so we didn't have to wait and could enjoy a comfortable lunch. I highly recommend this tour to anyone who's considering it.
