Ine Bay Sightseeing Boat tours

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A wonderful day with Rachel! Rachel made our tour of Amanohashidate, Ine no Funaya, and Miyama Thatched Village an unforgettable experience! Her warmth, enthusiasm and friendly personality made exploring these beautiful places even more special. The scenery and villages were incredible but a wonderful guide makes all the difference, and Rachel certainly did that. She made us feel welcome and brought such positive energy to the day. If you’re considering this tour, we highly recommend it, especially with Rachel as your guide! Thank you, Rachel for taking such good care of us and giving us such lovely memories of our time in Japan!

Thank you so Much Fredrick 😍

The tour guide spoke very gently and patiently, and was also very dedicated to resolving any issues we had. The only minor drawback was that the itinerary was a bit tight. We happened to go on a weekend, plus it was a special holiday in Japan, so there were huge crowds and long queues for everything. This meant we didn't have enough time to eat proper meals and had to grab quick snacks, which felt a bit rushed. However, the sea and Amanohashidate were truly beautiful. The final seagull feeding part was a little disappointing; the lower deck of the boat was already full, so we had to go to the upper deck and stand in the sun to feed the seagulls. But there seemed to be very few seagulls, and we ended up eating most of the shrimp crackers ourselves. We were lucky if we fed even one. I'm not sure if it was because there were so many people that the seagulls were already full. For this kind of trip, it would definitely be better to go on a weekday next time to avoid the crowds and long waits for everything.🥺🥺

Our guide Louis was extremely kind. Even though it was a day for English and Chinese-guided tours and we were the only Korean couple, he kindly guided us in Korean and even sent explanations via KakaoTalk, so we had a very comfortable and pleasant trip. Not to mention the scenery and our overall satisfaction haha. Thank you once again. Highly recommended a million times!

Thanks to the northern Kyoto bus tour, I now have a day from this trip that I will want to look back on for a long time. Ine Funaya was a place that calmed my heart just by looking at it. The houses lined up along the sea, the waves sparkling in the sunlight, and even the birds flying overhead. Seeing that scenery from the cruise ship, I finally felt like I could catch my breath amidst the busy travels. I took pictures, but I wanted to put my phone down for a moment and take it in with my own eyes. The Amanohashidate chairlift became another great memory. My heart was pounding as my feet left the ground! I was nervous, but I couldn't miss the scenery unfolding right before my eyes. The thrill of going up while feeling the wind was wonderful, and the view from the top of the sea and the long stretch of greenery made me gaze at it for a long time. I'm so glad I mustered the courage to ride it. Above all, as Koreans, we were so glad to hear the explanations in Korean from our guide, Shipmanpyeong. It was even more touching because we could comfortably listen to the stories in an unfamiliar place and appreciate the scenery before us with a deeper understanding. Details we might have just walked past caught our attention one more time. A trip that captured both the tranquility of Ine and the excitement of the lift in a single day. I think my family and I will talk about it for a long time, saying, "That was really wonderful." Thank you, guide Shipmanpyeong, for helping us create such wonderful memories. 😊

Supposed to be a trilingual delivery (English, Mandarin, Japanese) but the tour got a missed communication that they only open for a Mandarin group only. However, appreciate my Tour Leader Vivian👍 She managed it very well and still accomodating Engligh explanation for me!

You don't have to worry about transportation, but your time won't be as flexible. Our guide, Jay, is very nice and humorous! This time, we truly experienced the beauty of Amanohashidate and Ine Funaya. I'd love to come back next time for a more in-depth visit!

jay was an amazing tour guide! communication was clear from start to end of the tour. he was so helpful with his recommendations. we had a great time!

We participated in the Ine Funaya and Amanohashidate day tour, and we were extremely satisfied with the overall itinerary! ✨ In the morning, we went to Ine Funaya to take a boat and feed the seagulls. The scenery along the way was very beautiful, and having the seagulls fly alongside the boat was truly entertaining 🪽💕 In the afternoon, we headed to Amanohashidate and took the scenic coastal train to enjoy the views. The itinerary was arranged very smoothly, and we got to see all the highlights without feeling too rushed. I especially want to praise our tour guide, Mr. Liao! 👏 Guide Liao was very friendly and patient the whole way, explaining things clearly without constantly rushing everyone. His introductions to the scenic spots were also very lively, and he helped resolve any issues we encountered, making us three sisters feel very at ease on our first visit here. The atmosphere throughout the entire day was very relaxed and pleasant, and the timing was managed just right. There was adequate time to rest when needed, without the pressure of constantly rushing through the itinerary. We were so lucky to have such a great tour guide, which made this trip to Ine and Amanohashidate leave wonderful memories ❤️ If we have the opportunity to visit Kansai again in the future, we would gladly join a similar day tour again! 🌊🛳️✨
