Had a great time exploring Lake Biwa! I was the only non-Chinese speaker in the group, but our guide made sure I was included the whole time—translating key info and checking in with me throughout the tour. I forgot her name, but she was incredibly helpful and friendly. All the stops were beautiful—I loved every place we visited!

Kyoto Sanzen-in and Rurikoin Temple are truly worth the trip. It's a complete ocean of green, adding a touch of coolness to the hot summer. Kifune Shrine is like "living in a fairyland, without the noise of carriages and horses"... with cool flowing water beneath your feet, enjoy the comfort. Every moment carries the coolness of the mountains, even the breeze is filled with the sweetness of the stream. Very good, I am very satisfied, thank you to the guide for the enthusiastic service~

This day trip was our favorite part of Kyoto! We were able to see the countryside of Japan and were in awe. You wouldn’t be able to visit these spots without a car so it’s a great way to get around. Nick Lee is a great guide and shared some insight into Japan and gave us awesome recs. 100% need to add this to your itinerary!

Recommend this itinerary! The scenery of Arashiyama, Sagano, Bamboo Forest Trail, and Arashiyama Park is beautiful, and the surrounding cherry blossoms 🌸 are also in full bloom 😃! It was a weekend, so there were a lot of people, and there were bearers nearby. You could go boating on the lake, and there was also a small footbath. Fortunately, we had booked the small train tickets. The tour guide Minako carefully told us that the even-numbered seats have better views. She also took into account whether our seats would be facing uphill or facing up, and she also arranged for us to exchange seats on the return trip early in the morning, which made everyone happy. All have the opportunity to enjoy the beautiful scenery. Moreover, she also sent us relevant maps with the key sights to see, and also accompanied the group members to introduce the scenic spots (because I will participate in other klook Japan day tours later, some tour guides will only stay on the tour bus and will not go in to introduce the scenic spots) . I feel that her service is considerate and dedicated, and she often offers to take photos for me (because I am a lone ranger this time). This group departs from Osaka and Kyoto. In addition, there is Sanzen-in (not many trips to visit, but it is quite peaceful to enjoy tea there), so the time schedule is quite sufficient.

The tour leader Li Xiang was great, he arranged the time very well, and he was very considerate. It was a very pleasant trip, and he also sent us back to our accommodation safely.

It is a niche itinerary, a great travel experience. You can sit and look at the Japanese gardens and the animation world of Hayao Miyazaki. Every scene is super beautiful. The tour guide Alexa is warm and considerate, and she carefully introduces the historical stories of each attraction and the recommended check-in points, which is great.

If you want to see the limited-time summer Rurikoin Temple, now is the time! We went in early July and the reflections were stunning, and it wasn't too crowded. You can eat freely at Sanzen-in Temple, and there are quite a few options, but the prices are a bit high, so I recommend bringing some food with you. The itinerary design was also reasonable, but walking around several temples in the summer can be a bit tiring, so I recommend wearing comfortable shoes. The tour guide was also very nice, helped everyone take pictures, and recommended good angles for photos. Overall, it was a very pleasant group tour experience. The air conditioning on the tour bus was very cool, and I slept soundly on the way back until we reached the drop-off point.
