Our tour guide, Mr. Tiger, was very organized and thoughtful. A day before the tour, he sent me a WhatsApp message with his contact number, photo, and the exact arrival time at the meeting place — which made it so much easier to find him on the day of the tour. Throughout the trip, Tiger shared interesting commentaries about each destination and gave practical tips, like where to eat and what local items to buy. He even went the extra mile by sending restaurant suggestions in Osaka via WhatsApp. All the places we visited on this tour were interesting and truly worth seeing! Time was managed efficiently, and everything went smoothly. I would love to join another tour with Tiger as our guide in the future!

A bit of a hike but with awesome rewards. In the 3h i even managed to go up the pilgrimage route behind the temple where it was quiet and just magical - probably one of my favorites so definitely recommend!

We very much enjoyed our half day tour with Karl, who was very knowledgeable, energetic, friendly, flexible and generous with his time and knowledge. Highly recommend.

Amanohashidate and Ine day tour was the highlight of my Osaka trip, and using the JR pass in almost all of my train rides in Osaka and the neighboring areas of Kobe and Kyoto was very maximized. I even got to ride the Shinkansen to Himeji using the JR pass.

Very nice place. I didn’t manage to visit it all in one day because it’s very big and temples close around 4-5pm. The cemetery is a very beautiful experience. The price for this pass is very nice at the time of this review!

This is my second time getting this pass and I would always get this for my Kansai itnerary. It is very convenient to have especially when multiple companies are operating different set of train lines. Also, its coverage so vast so that you can basically do unlimited variation of your itineraries.

The JR Pass is excellent value! We only waited about 5 minutes in line at the Kansai Airport counter, and the staff immediately helped us reserve seats on the Haruka train. From queuing to boarding, it took just 15 minutes in total. It's fantastic to have unlimited rides on the Hello Kitty Shinkansen and trips to Hiroshima included. For a 5-day pass focused on the Kansai area, it offers extremely high value. The only downside is that it doesn't cover Nozomi or Mizuho Shinkansen services between Kyoto and Osaka/Shin-Osaka. However, the Thunderbird limited express train that operates on the same route is also very comfortable and pleasant."
