absolutely such an amazing tour, i fell in love with every stop. i cannot recommend this enough!!! so worth your money. tour guide went ABOVE AND BEYOND to accommodate everyone and explain everything.
Our tour to Amanohashidate kyoto was a wonderful experience. The scenery was breathtaking, and the views were truly worth the trip. The itinerary was well organized, giving us enough time to explore and enjoy the attractions without feeling rushed A special thank you to our tour guide, CARTER SASAKI, for making our trip so memorable. Carter was friendly, funny, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the tour. He shared fascinating information about the area, kept everything well organized, and made the journey enjoyable with his warm personality and sense of humor. His professionalism and enthusiasm truly enhanced our experience. Overall, we had a fantastic time and would 💯highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kyoto. Thank you so much, Mr. Carter Sasaki, for making our trip to Amanohashidate such a memorable and enjoyable experience.
Great tour! Got a lot of good photos and enjoyed the trip very much. Our tour guide Rex was great. He even adjusted the tour based on the weather so we wouldn't get stuck in the rain during the boat ride. Even helped take pictures for us and other passengers at the observatory and guided people to the toilets before departure if they needed it. I wiulddefinitely recommend people to take this tour for a trip to Ine.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Five-star recommendation for Akira! Today's day trip to northern Kyoto was truly worthwhile! We arrived at Ine Funaya in the morning and climbed to the observation deck to overlook the entire Ine Bay. Although the seaside cafe I was looking forward to was closed, standing outside and drinking a bottle of iced barley tea, the million-dollar ocean view was still breathtaking, so beautiful that I didn't want to leave. Next, we took a boat cruise to feed the seagulls, experiencing the awe of seagulls soaring up close. In the afternoon, we visited Amanohashidate, one of Japan's three most scenic views. I highly recommend taking the cable car; I particularly enjoyed the descent, admiring the 'Flying Dragon View' and experiencing the classic 'viewing through your legs.' Then, we strolled through Chionji Temple, the revolving bridge, and the sandbar. Every stop was relaxing and therapeutic. I especially want to highly recommend our guide, Akira! If you only speak Chinese, you really don't need to worry at all. Akira is very fluent in Chinese. He proactively contacted us the day before departure to remind us of meeting information and important notes, which made us feel very at ease. During the trip, in addition to providing detailed explanations of the attractions, he also shared many practical travel tips, photo spots, and food recommendations, making the entire trip incredibly rewarding. What's even better is that the pace of the entire itinerary was perfectly managed. We never felt rushed; instead, everyone could leisurely enjoy the scenery and take photos at their own pace, truly savoring the trip rather than just rushing through it. If I have the chance to visit Japan again, or if friends want to take a day trip to the Kyoto suburbs, I will definitely recommend Akira and choose his tour again! It's absolutely worth a five-star recommendation! 🌟
We made a last-minute decision to visit Amanohashidate, and after booking on Klook, four of us were able to go the very next day, which was incredibly efficient. Our guide, Rex, was fluent in English, Chinese, and of course, Japanese. His explanations of the itinerary and introductions to Japanese history were excellent, and he also took care of the needs of every guest, young and old. His language skills are truly impressive, and he's very friendly. It felt incredibly warm and reassuring to meet Rex, who speaks Chinese, in Japan. At the end of the tour, everyone on the bus received a complimentary Amanohashidate postcard as a souvenir. We're truly grateful to Rex for leaving such a deep impression on all the guests today. Especially your hamburger flag, I'm sure no one will ever forget you.
i’ll be honest, this was the first i booked something like this, but i did not expected it to be so simple, and the fact that even meeting up with the guide was also simple is just chefs kiss, i loved how energetic and talkative he was, he was polite, caring, and just overall a joy to be with, and i hope that we can come back to amanohashidate again with sasaki, arigatou ne sasaki.
We had Carter today and we was awesome! Such a kind and funny tour guide who was super helpful and made the whole day so much fun! I really liked how free the journey, was with plenty of time to experience each place on your own. Definitely one of the best trips I’ve ever taken.
The trip was so fun. We went to a beautiful rustic fishing village and boarded a ferry to feed and fly with the birds. Our tour guide Carter Sasaki was very friendly and had fun stories to tell us. He was also accommodating. We then went to Amanohashidate and did a solo chair ramp, took pictures on a cliff and hung out at the beach.
