Kyoto Day trips

A very well-organized and punctual day tour. Visiting Amanohashidate and Ine Funaya in a single day is made so easy without the headache of figuring out transportation. The view of the 'Bridge to Heaven' from the top of the hill is extraordinarily beautiful, and the boat experience feeding seagulls in the Ine fishing village is very exciting and unique. The tour guide was friendly and communicative, and the bus was very comfortable. Highly recommended.

Valerie was a great tour guide! Unfortunately it was a really wet and raining day, but Valerie made sure it was still a great day. The locations we went to were beautiful and had plenty of souvenir shopping options. Looking forward to going to Kyoto again, next time we are in Japan

our guide Cali was really nice, knowledgeable and fun. When I couldnt find our exact meeting spot or group as there were other tours in that area, she came to find us. She even gave out postcards and hard candy, which I later had to hunt down as I became obsessed with it. It rained that day but it didnt stop us from enjoying the trip even though we got soaked. I wished I got to experience the boat ride better as I said, it was raining, and everyone ended up crowding on the lower deck and a couple of people on the tour kept hogging feeding the seagulls without moving or giving anyone else the chance to feed them until we were almost near the port. and yes I did ask them if they could move a bit so I can have a turn, they ignored me while kept taking pics and videos, blocking the view, and so I ended up eating the shrimp chips instead....it was a pretty good snack...I get why the gulls like them. all in all, would definitely recommend and book again.

I had an amazing experience on this Kyoto day trip, and a special thank you to our tour guide, Hua Hua! ❤️ As a solo traveller visiting for the first time, I was quite scared and unsure of what to do. Hua Hua was incredibly friendly, helpful, and patient, making sure I was well guided and comfortable throughout the trip. Without him, I wouldn’t have enjoyed this experience as much. He truly deserves recognition and praise from the company for his outstanding service. I had so much fun and would definitely come back to be guided by him again. Hua Hua is truly the best of the best!

The itinerary was well-organized and compact. Being able to visit such a distant attraction in a single day is really only possible by taking a day tour. Since it's a famous spot, there were quite a few people even on a weekday. I especially loved the boat cruise and feeding the seagulls; I strongly recommend that those who know how to have fun buy 1-2 extra bags of shrimp crackers, because the birds' reactions can honestly be described as starving ghosts—they are great at eating, completely unafraid, and being so close makes for a very unique experience. The least worthwhile part was probably the Tango sightseeing train; because you're sitting inside the train, the feeling of crossing over the sea is quite muted, completely different from taking photos from below looking up. It's a bit of a letdown, so I suggest travelers booking this tour skip the package that includes the Tango train experience. Our local guide, Ba-san, is from Beijing and has lived in Japan for many years. He was very enthusiastic, introducing us to a lot of interesting trivia about Japan as well as great, cost-effective everyday dining spots. At the end, he even sang to liven up the atmosphere. Thank you very much!

such a special experience. I have always wanted to go and see a maiko perform and it was beautiful. she and our guide were such gracious kind people and I learnt a lot about the maiko culture in Kyoto.

Shien (sorry if I spelt it wrong!) was amazing! she did such a great job. great energy! she is the gem of the tour! we had the best time, learned so much, walked 10,000 steps without even realizing it. highly recommend. thank you! -the “straight to jail” group

I booked a 1-day tour of Kyoto and Nara during my trip to Osaka. Traveling by bus, our guide, Oh Seok-bong, gave great explanations at each attraction, which made the sightseeing much more enriching and helped me create wonderful memories. He also told us many fun stories on the bus while we traveled! Plus, he shared several great local restaurants in Osaka. Thanks to him, I successfully finished my one-day tour of Kyoto and Nara. Also, everyone on the tour respected the schedule, so we were able to move smoothly without any delays ^^

If you're traveling a big international trip like we did and were a little nervous trying to figure out all the train systems this is a great option! We based in Osaka for a few days and wanted to see Kyoto and Nara while we were here. We figured we'd be a little overwhelmed trying to get over to Kyoto/Nara so we last minute decided to book a bus tour to the big spots we wanted to see. This was such a great tour! Harid was our tour guide and he was fabulous! You coukd tell he loved what he did. He was always willing to answer our groups questions and keep us informed of each next stop and expectations. We didn't book the lunch but he gave us a good recommendation of where to eat while the rest of the group did the lunch included. He even helped take photos for everyone when needed.
