Ine Fishing Village tours

Really nice experience! I highly recommend, not too far from Kyoto station, you get to experience nature, sea and relax while doing so. if you’re wanting to have a nice and not tiring experience, to change the pace a little bit, highly recommend. Great bus and driver, Moana guide is excellent as well. overall a must do trip/experience in my opinion.

The tour was great! Our guide, Zoey, was so friendly—she took some lovely family photos for us and shared interesting facts on the places before we even arrived. The time allocated for each stop was just right, though it would have been amazing to have a little more time at Amanohashidate since we needed to fit in our meals there too. Overall, it was a really wonderful tour and we had a great time!

The tour guide spoke very gently and patiently, and was also very dedicated to resolving any issues we had. The only minor drawback was that the itinerary was a bit tight. We happened to go on a weekend, plus it was a special holiday in Japan, so there were huge crowds and long queues for everything. This meant we didn't have enough time to eat proper meals and had to grab quick snacks, which felt a bit rushed. However, the sea and Amanohashidate were truly beautiful. The final seagull feeding part was a little disappointing; the lower deck of the boat was already full, so we had to go to the upper deck and stand in the sun to feed the seagulls. But there seemed to be very few seagulls, and we ended up eating most of the shrimp crackers ourselves. We were lucky if we fed even one. I'm not sure if it was because there were so many people that the seagulls were already full. For this kind of trip, it would definitely be better to go on a weekday next time to avoid the crowds and long waits for everything.🥺🥺

we had a wonderful experience with this trip guided by Lui. He explained well in Nihongo, English and Mandarin. Our toddler is the only children in this trip & everything went well. We enjoyed the scenery along the train journey, the amanohashidate viewland and ine village experience. super worth it!

jay was an amazing tour guide! communication was clear from start to end of the tour. he was so helpful with his recommendations. we had a great time!

There is actually plenty of time on the itinerary, it just depends on how you make the most of it. Those who do their homework beforehand can experience all sorts of things, while those who don't can just relax and experience the tour with Guide Kelly, who will introduce delicious food and fun places for your reference. The pudding on the Inne sightseeing boat is really delicious, and if you don't take the boat, you can just stroll around nearby. On weekends, one or two small shops are open. The Inne boathouses are in another location and are very crowded. If you have specific spots, cafes, boathouse tours, or snacks in mind, please research and choose one or two to plan ahead so you won't be disappointed. Personally, I think taking a stroll, taking pictures, and finding a place to enjoy the scenery and relax is the best part. The Amanohashidate itinerary is quite fun; when the stay is long, depending on the time, you can take a local ferry to get a closer look at Amanohashidate. However, it is normal that the itinerary departing from Osaka to pick up people in Kyoto before heading out might encounter a bit of traffic.

A very beautiful place (Amanohashidate and Ine boat houses), with plenty of time for the itinerary. The chairlift experience at Amanohashidate was truly rare and special. Unfortunately, due to high winds and rough seas that day, the boat tour was canceled. The return bus ride was nearly 4 hours long. Our tour guide, Xiao Fu, gave up his regular seat and sat on a small auxiliary jump seat for the entire journey back; this thoughtful gesture deeply showed his care for the tour members. The first stop of the itinerary was riding the coastal train. A middle-aged tour guide with a backpack from another group of your company cut the line, leaving the elderly and young children in our group without seats. More than once, that middle-aged male guide from the other tour walked over to our guide and spoke rudely to him, displaying an arrogant and haughty attitude. I witnessed all of this. We kindly request management to address the middle-aged male tour guide who cut the line on the platform and was rude at JR Nishi-Maizuru Station on the morning of October 29th. Right outside the Amanohashidate cable car station, he once again provoked our guide, Xiao Fu, with rude and insulting remarks! As a tour participant, I was truly shocked to witness these two poor behaviors! With a middle-aged tour guide of such poor character, I am just thankful I was not in the group he was leading.

Last time, I visited Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, so this time I went to places I hadn't seen before. It was just before a long holiday, so there weren't many people, and it was wonderfully peaceful and quiet! When you actually see it, it's not so much 'Wow, that's amazing!' but rather beautiful scenery, the path you walk while admiring that scenery, various photos taken at photo spots, and an unexpected seagull zoo feeding (making eye contact with seagulls and hawks). I didn't have high expectations, but it was fun! The only downside is that the travel time is a bit long if you depart from Osaka! However, our guide, MICA, explained many things about Japan so well and took such beautiful photos that I even changed my KakaoTalk profile picture for the first time in a while! 😄

This was a truly excellent one-day trip booking! I'm so glad I decided to book with this company. The service was convenient, traveling by bus from Kyoto was easy and straightforward. Staff informed us of the boarding time and meeting point, and we departed on schedule. The staff provided excellent information and could speak Chinese, English, and Japanese. Our wonderful head guide was Mr. BA. As a Thai person traveling alone this time, I felt incredibly grateful. I highly recommend that other Thais experience the Ine fishing village; it's truly beautiful, even more so than in the pictures. If I have the chance, I will definitely use this service again. Thank you, Mr. BA, and all my fellow travelers! 🇹🇭🇯🇵
