What to expect

[Katsuoji Temple] A thousand-year-old temple located in the mountains of Minoh City, Osaka Prefecture, it is famous for its cute Daruma dolls scattered throughout the temple and the beautiful natural scenery that changes with the seasons. It is not only a sacred place to pray for “good fortune,” but also a great place to take photos.

[Kyoto Arashiyama] A beautiful area in the western suburbs of Kyoto, known for its distinct natural beauty throughout the four seasons and its rich historical background. It is not only the filming location of “Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon”, but also a great place to experience the “slow life” of Kyoto.

[Sagano Scenic Railway] Guests can choose to take the Sagano Scenic Railway, which departs from Saga Station and passes through the maple tunnel. The retro carriages and the scenery outside the window are absolutely amazing.

[Bamboo Forest Path] It is a few minutes’ walk from Torokko Kameoka Station, the last stop of the Sagano Scenic Railway. Sunlight filters through the towering bamboo forest, creating dappled shadows, as if you have stepped into the animation world of Hayao Miyazaki.

[Fushimi Inari Shrine] One of Kyoto’s most famous attractions, it is known for its endless vermilion “Senbon Torii” and cute fox elements. It is not only the head shrine of more than 30,000 Inari shrines in Japan, but also a sacred place to pray for academic achievement, career success, health, and family safety.

[Thousand Torii Gates] This is the core landscape of Fushimi Inari Shrine. Thousands of vermilion torii gates stretch from the foot of the mountain to the top, forming a 4-kilometer-long red tunnel.

The tour guide shared very detailed information about the attractions and important notes. I'm so glad I purchased this one-day tour; I had a wonderful day. The travel time between points was also perfectly managed. I'm also grateful for the sightseeing tips shared by our guide, Mr. Takahashi, at the end; they were very helpful.

When you have limited time to visit Kyoto, this tour is the perfect option to visit major tourist spots. We found it very convenient as it saved us a lot of time and energy from navigating on our own. Our tourist guide, Miley, was great and really made an effort to give a brief background about each tourist spots we visited. Overall, it was a wonderful experience for us visiting Japan for the first time.

We booked the Klook day trip from Osaka covering Katsuo-ji, Arashiyama and Fushimi Inari, and it was a mixed experience overall. Katsuo-ji Temple was honestly the highlight of the trip. The place is beautiful, peaceful and very well maintained. At the entrance, they give you a postcard and encourage you to explore the entire temple area to find 6 stamps it turned into a fun little activity and made the visit more engaging, especially with kids. Definitely a unique and memorable experience.However, the Kyoto stops were a bit disappointing. The bamboo forest in Arashiyama felt quite overhyped—extremely crowded, making it hard to actually enjoy the place or take good pictures. The same goes for Arashiyama in general and Fushimi Inari both were packed with tourists, which took away from the experience. Overall, wellorganized tour and convenient if you want to cover multiple spots in one day, but be prepared for heavy crowds at the Kyoto locations. Katsuo-ji alone made it worthwhile for us.

This was a fun trip to Katsuo-ji Temple and Arashiyama, both of which are attractions I particularly like. I highly recommend Katsuo-ji Temple, there are so many super cute dolls, and everyone is very creative in how they place them. Haihua Takahashi speaks Chinese, Japanese, and English, is very kind, and has great photography skills 👍

The highlight of this trip for me was Katsuo-ji Temple. It's a very beautiful temple, and taking a day tour is the best option when transportation is not convenient. Our guide, Apple, was a fantastic guide. She made sure we arrived at each destination on time. She was very friendly and knowledgeable about every place we visited.

This is an excellent option for those staying in Osaka who want to easily visit Kyoto shrines. Katsuo-ji Temple is particularly beautiful, and this trip was very enjoyable. Our guide, Ms. Apple, provided useful information about the destinations and gave clear instructions throughout the trip. The whole journey was very pleasant, and we had a lot of fun. Plenty of valuable information was shared before arriving at each destination, so we knew exactly what to see and do. This was a fantastic experience.

Very convenient, the travel agency emailed us the tour guide's information one day in advance, so we could quickly find the tour guide. Apple, the tour guide, was very lovely and gave us great information. The tour time at each place was very reasonable, so you could see what you wanted to see, and the bus was warm and comfortable. I think next time, I will book with KLOOK again.
