Review for: [English-speaking tour guide] Depart from Osaka or Kyoto.

We chose this program with an English-speaking guide. The guide was excellent. On a day with heavy rain, the guide consistently updated us on every minute of delay via the LINE group. Upon arrival, we received a warm welcome, and the guide explained every tourist spot clearly and understandably, showing great care for all tour members. Thank you to our guide, Theodore Chan, for taking such good care of us. He also professionally recommended delicious restaurants, check-in spots, and photo opportunities.

Amanda was organised and clear with her explanations. The tour is 40 minutes at Kinkaku-ji Temple, which is perfect timing, 2 hours and 40 minutes at the Kiyomizu-dera area (stairs and distractions will take a while but the duration is comfortable), and 1 hour and 40 minutes at Uji (very relaxing tour of Byudoin Temple and the Uji street). Overall, it was an enjoyable day tour suitable for adults and older children.

Booked this for convenience as it was my last day. I think the tour is evenly paced. Tour guide was friendly and even took photos of me as a solo traveller. I appreciate his effort to give some tips about each stop and gave us some great photo spots.

We had an incredible day today! Our guide put so much heart and energy into looking after the whole group. Not only were they perfectly on time, but they also shared such deep insights into the area that kept us all fascinated. The best part was the atmosphere on the bus—He even singing songs in bus , which made the travel time fly by! he also gave everyone a souvenir to take home. It was such a kind gesture that made us all feel welcome. Five stars!"

The tour was well organized, with a nice balance between Kyoto’s famous sights and the peaceful atmosphere of Uji. I especially appreciated his attention to the group and helpful recommendations. I highly recommend this tour for anyone who wants a deeper and more enjoyable experience visiting Kyoto and Uji.
