Review for: Osaka Katsuo-ji Temple & Minoo Park Romantic Hiking Day Tour (Small Group Tour, Optional Hotel Pickup)

Tour Guide: Xiao Song is a very thoughtful tour guide and driver. He notified us of the meeting place in advance the day before, and during the trip, he would also send the meeting time and location, making it very easy to find. He would also wait for everyone near the drop-off and pick-up points, and his memory is truly excellent! Itinerary: The three attractions (Katsuo-ji Temple, Minoo Park + Minoo Waterfall, and Expo '70 Commemorative Park) were all very good. However, you walk a lot all day, so it is recommended to wear comfortable walking shoes and bring water. Group Size: Today, the van was fully booked with 12 people. Attractions Along the Way: Among them, I liked the cuteness of Katsuo-ji Temple and the natural scenery of Mt. Minoo the most. The Expo Commemorative Park grounds are too large; if you cannot walk anymore, you can go straight to the Japanese Garden to drink tea, eat sweets, and rest! Breaks: The time allocated for each location was more than sufficient. We even left early, departing at 8:00 AM and returning to the meeting point by 4:30 PM.

Absolutely fantastic experience! We took this tour today and couldn't be happier with Mr Zheng Haowen, our driver and guide. The evening before the tour, he carefully sent us all the exact details and instructions for the meet-up, which made the morning completely stress-free. Throughout the entire day, he took incredible care of us and made sure everyone was comfortable, safe, and happy. Highly recommend booking this tour, thank you for making our day in Osaka so special!

Our tour guide, Mr. Song, led the tour exceptionally well. We had ample time at each attraction, and the parking was conveniently close, so we didn't have to walk far. The itinerary was packed with diverse and unique sights, which helped us avoid waiting for public transportation and the hassle of transfers.

7/10/26 Luka was our driver very nice and prompt with keeping us inform with a picture of his vehicle that we should be looking out for our tour, our itinerary and time frame of exploring these areas. He even picked us up and dropped us off at our hotel which is roughly a 15-20 mins walking distance from the original free pickup location. There were 4 of us from my party, a total of 6 in a passenger van. This service is very convenient since I didn’t want to risk getting lost by taking a train, a buss ride with walking to each location. Totally recommend .

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Had a wonderful time on the Osaka Katsuo-ji & Minoo Park Full-Day Romantic Hiking Tour! The scenery was beautiful, especially the peaceful surroundings of Katsuo-ji and Minoo Park. It was a relaxing way to escape the busy city and enjoy some nature. A special thank you to our driver, Yamamoto-san, who was very friendly, helpful, and attentive throughout the day. He made sure we were comfortable and got around safely, and his warm hospitality made the whole experience even more enjoyable. Overall, a lovely day with beautiful scenery, a relaxing hike, and great service. Highly recommend this tour, especially if you want to experience a quieter and more scenic side of Osaka!
