This was such a unique tour! Kudos to Allen for the very informative and fun experience. I’d say half of the fun of this tour is because of his stories! I learned so much about the place. Also, Northern Kyoto has its own beauty. I’m grateful that I joined this tour!

We had an enjoyable one day tour with our tour guide Moana. Visiting Ine Funaya, stunning views of Amanohashidate, ferry ride feeding seagulls and lastly visiting Miyama Kayabuki farmhouse. However the time is quite rushing but overall everything was excellent. Moana was caring and attentive. She always checking on each of us.

​Excellent tour to Amanohashidate and Ine Funaya with Mr. Yu Qi Hang! The trip ran smoothly and completely on time. Mr. Yu was very informative, humble, and explained the itinerary so well that we never felt confused. He was always happy to answer our questions. It was a wonderful experience overall!

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!

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! 😄

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.🥺🥺

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.

We really enjoyed our tour! The travel time is around 3hrs each way and it's very convenient for us. I definitely would want to come back and spend a few days here. I would recommend this tour especially if it's your first time in Japan.

Sufficient time for all stops and Guide Nimo is very clear in providing instruction on what time to be back on the bus after each stop. He also share Japanese culture and historical information while free time on coach journey. Relaxing and chill day tour.

Explore Kasamatsu Park

On the northern side of Amanohashidate, Kasamatsu Park gives you a different look at the famous sandbar. You can take a cable car to get there and enjoy stunning views of the "bridge to heaven," especially from the mountains. There's even a fun way to see it by bending over and looking at it upside down through your legs. People say it makes the sandbar look like a path to the sky! This park is also a nice place for a picnic, surrounded by the natural beauty of Kyoto Prefecture.

Visit Chionji Temple

To add some culture to your visit, stop by Chionji Temple near the southern end of the sandbar. This lovely temple has a famous five-story pagoda.
