I'm grateful to Mr. Hanazawa, our driver and guide, for making it easy to reach the island's hidden gems. The attractions are unique and full of character! I will definitely bring my family and friends to participate again! Mr. Hanazawa provided detailed explanations, thoughtfully prepared water, and enthusiastically helped travelers take memorable photos. I originally had a moderate preference for onions, but on this island, I fell in love with the incredibly sweet, fruit-like onions! The Dream Stage and Honpuku-ji Water Temple, designed by the master Tadao Ando, boast numerous architectural artistic concepts. The magnificent sense of space seen with my own eyes cannot be captured in photos. Built in harmony with nature, it's a must-see for architecture enthusiasts! The flower fields and sunsets on Awaji Island are also incredibly beautiful and magnificent! Awaji Island and Mount Koya are not easily accessible by public transportation, but they are both stunningly beautiful destinations frequented by locals.

This was like an education field trip, I absolutely loved it. First of all, we were only a small group, it is always easier to tour with a smaller group. Our guide, Ms Junko was so nice and knowledgeable. She really came in prepared to share information about Kukai and the Isoteric Buddhism. Our driver, Mr. Ishida was just an absolute peach so friendly and funny! Mt. Koya was stunning and the fall foliage was just wow! The orange picking was also a good experience, the interns there were so nice and friendly.

Staff were professional, the guide at Koyasan was experienced! The stay at the shukubo was interesting. Quite spartan. Didn’t realise that the communal bathroom wasn’t open before the morning chant started so I had to wash my hair in the sink in the room toilet…😂

We highly recommend this service as it made getting around the different sites of Kyoto so very convenient. The important spots in Kyoto are a bit far apart so our van made things so much easier. Also, our driver, Mr. Wang, was very friendly and accommodating.

Very good option for 1 day trip. Although we wished to more time in some locations, we also understand that time is limited for tour groups. However it is still an enjoyable and value for money option.

Linda was an amazing tour guide! She made sure to check on everyone during the entire trip and was very informative. We had recived news that it was cloudy but thanks to her wish we were able to see Mt. Fuji! All of the sites were magnificent. The itinerary was perfect and the buffet was delicious. At the end of the trip there was a malfunction of the A.C and the bus became very warm. Linda went above and beyond by opening all of the windows and constantly fanned every passanger with a booklet to help us stay cool. Moments like this can occur and Linda handled it extremely well! I am very happy and proud to have had Linda as my guide for my family and would 100% do this tour again. Thank you, Linda!

I like the itinerary, too bad there's no blue pond on July. I think shinsikai oka, kamifurano and tomita is nice but 3 farm on 1 day is a bit boring because they look quite similar in the end. But it's still a nice tour, highly recommended for first timer like me. Our tour guide Alex is the most chatty tour guide among others tour guide I've met in Japan. His fluent in Japanese, Mandarin and English and give a lot of good recommendation. I even saw him help other find her kids. Really nice and helpful. Btw, the bus is also nice and cool. In this summer, a cool bus is the best

An awesome excursion! All in all, a successful day ✨ Koyasan is truly impressive, and the train ride was a very nice ending. We especially liked that we also had time to explore the sites on our own. Our tour guide, Yan Lei, was great! 😊
