Hōnenin Temple tours

Had a great time exploring Lake Biwa! I was the only non-Chinese speaker in the group, but our guide made sure I was included the whole time—translating key info and checking in with me throughout the tour. I forgot her name, but she was incredibly helpful and friendly. All the stops were beautiful—I loved every place we visited!

Very interesting experience! Our guide was easy to understand and shared so much information with our group. I learned a lot and enjoyed the performances. The question/answer portion makes the event more personal.

Itsuki was an excellent guide who provided us with a wealth of information about Geisha culture and history. We learned a lot during the tour, and she also offered great recommendations for other activities to enjoy while in Kyoto. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in Geisha culture and the history of Gion.

During the 7-day 6-night free travel, I specially arranged a day to sign up for a group tour in Kyoto. The main attractions this time were Kinkakuji Temple, Kiyomizu Temple and Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. The overall itinerary was all the attractions I really wanted to visit. I was super nervous before departure, after all, it was my first time traveling in this way, and I wanted to participate selfishly, but in fact I really felt great. The entire time control and itinerary arrangement were all very appropriate. I would like to thank our tour guide Xiao Fu (Alvin) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. During the trip, he explained the history of the attractions in Chinese and English, and shared many recommended restaurants, allowing us to use time quickly and accurately, and he would also remind everyone in the group of the meeting time and place in a timely manner. Our group had a large number of people and we took the bus, but Xiao Fu still cared about everyone's situation, whether there was anything they wanted to eat, etc. He was always willing to help. Especially when my son fell and injured both knees, Xiao Fu immediately went to buy disinfectant and dressings for us. I am really grateful, otherwise we might not be able to have fun. The child felt embarrassed afterwards and wanted to thank this big brother. We returned to Osaka at nearly 6 o'clock and had plenty of time to go shopping. After returning home, everyone felt that they had a fulfilling and happy day.

it was just our own group so we were able to go through the tour easily, Naoya-san had some great tidbits of facts regarding Nijo castle.

It is a niche itinerary, a great travel experience. You can sit and look at the Japanese gardens and the animation world of Hayao Miyazaki. Every scene is super beautiful. The tour guide Alexa is warm and considerate, and she carefully introduces the historical stories of each attraction and the recommended check-in points, which is great.

The tour guide is very professional, and the geisha performance is fantastic.

We had a great time on this tour. the district was beautiful at night. Nagoya was our guide and he was awesome. He let us linger around the tea houses in hopes we would see a maiko. He was bmvery knowledgeable about the area and the history.
