Reviews summaryWe did the Kyoto Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari and Nara Deer Day Tour today and had such a great experience! Our guide Valerie was lovely and really kind, attentive and always making sure we were enjoying the day. She shared lots of interesting facts about each place and also gave us some great recommendations along the way. Her english was perfect and she was really organized. Whenever it was getting close to the time to meet the bus, she would even call us just to make sure everything was okay and that we knew where to go. I really recommend this tour if you want to see some of the main sights around Kyoto and Nara without having to worry about organizing everything yourself. Valerie definitely made the experience even better 5*

Before the event day, she texted me for an introduction and as this is family tour, she acknowledge my request (bring stroller, halal food guide) and she even goes beyond extra mile by sharing which area is recommended for halal food. The bus is soooo comfortable and spacious, even the day she have to managed group of 43 include us, she never show any sign of tired and brief us about the places to go so that we know where we heading to. She is a good English tour guide and i look forward for her success to many more years ahead. kudos to the driver also, for driving us safe and sound. Highly recommended!

This tour was worth it! Our guide is Willa and with her coworker Samuel. Willa updated our group chat with helpful links as well as constant updates while on the tour. She also taught us helpful info on how to interact with the deers. Samuel was translating for the other guests and recommended places for us to eat in Japan. The departure times were also followed consistently which I appreciated very much. Would highly recommend this tour if you want a convenient and organized trip.
Our guide, Amy, was amazing! She was cheerful and eager to explain everything around us, even during the drives between locations. She even brought some treats to share with the passengers. This experience allows you to visit several tourist spots in Kyoto all in one day.
Valerie was wonderful tour guide. She was funny, kind, and insightful. She kept all 4 kids (Ages 2-13yo) entertained by educating us with the history of each city. We enjoyed each location and will recommend this tour to others.
We had a fantastic time on the Kyoto Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari, and Nara Deer Day Tour! The itinerary was wonderful. Exploring the serene Arashiyama area, walking through the famous orange torii gates at Fushimi Inari, and visiting Nara Deer Park were all highlights of our trip. Seeing and interacting with the deer at Nara Park was absolute fun! Our guide, Theodore, was incredibly friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout the entire day. Visiting these iconic sites on a hot day could have been exhausting, but the tour bus was clean, comfortable, and had great air conditioning to keep us cool between stops. Theodore made sure everyone stayed refreshed by handing out cooling wipes, and having cheap cold water available for purchase right on the bus was a thoughtful touch. It was a very enjoyable experience overall, and I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kyoto!

His attentiveness and dedication made sure we experienced everything the tour had to offer without feeling rushed or left behind. Rex’s professionalism, enthusiasm, and genuine care for the group made this one of the highlights of our trip. I highly recommend this tour, especially if you have Rex as your guide!
