Things to do in Uji

I had a really memorable day thanks to our guide. We visited Nara, Uji, and Fushimi Inari, and the whole trip was smooth and comfortable from start to finish. She has a very cool and confident vibe — short hair, a relaxed style, and a calm, clear way of speaking. She can switch between Japanese, Mandarin, and English effortlessly, which made everything so easy and natural. Her explanations were simple and vivid, not boring at all, and she shared small details that made each place feel alive. I also really appreciated her respectful and open personality. She didn’t try to perform or push anything — she just let the experience breathe, which made the day feel genuine and relaxed. If you’re looking for someone who’s professional, chill, and really knows how to guide without being overbearing, I’d definitely recommend her. Great energy, great pace, great company.

It was a very nice trip. Our tour guide, Frederick was really helpful. He gave a lot of tips, recommended foods and provided google map links so we can easily find the restaurants. We really liked the itinerary of this trip.

I really enjoyed this day trip. Locke was a fantastic guide, knowledgeable, friendly, and great at keeping the group organized. He shared clear explanations in both English and Chinese and always made sure everyone knew where to go next. He also helped take photos at each spot, which was a nice bonus. Overall, a great experience, and I’d happily recommend him to anyone visiting Kyoto.

Our multingual tour guide Min was very helpful. He sent links to the best places to get food and snacks. Pro Tip: Take a photo of your bus. I recommend pinning the location of the parking lots each time you stop. We got lost in Nara Deer Park and had to practically ran back up.

Absolutely loved our Day 3 tour from Osaka to Nara & Uji! 🦌✨ Visiting Nara Park, Tōdaiji Temple, and Byōdōin Temple was breathtaking — the temples are stunning, and the deer in Nara Park are so adorable and friendly. 🏯💛 The Uji matcha food tour was a highlight — every treat was delicious, and the matcha desserts were unforgettable! 🍵💚 The day was perfectly balanced with sightseeing, culture, and foodie adventures. Highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting a mix of history, nature, and yummy Japanese treats — we had so much fun and made memories to last a lifetime! 🌟

It was a great experience indeed! The driver was so kind, hospitable and accomodating. He really lead us on our way carefully and as well as going back on our home. We highly recommend him to others. Hoping our next trip with him.Awesome!!

This experience was a highlight of our Japan trip. From start to finish, we truly enjoyed the whole day. Our guide, Ako was awesome! We learned so much about shrines, temples, and of course matcha tea! This is an experience worth booking to get the most out of a day in Uji.

a lovely experience overall! the lessons we were taught about the history of tea in Japan and how to properly host and serve tea, as well as taking us down a wonderful history lesson of Japan, it was nothing short of wonderful. my friends and I had an awesome time and the atmosphere was silent and beautiful. highly recommend! equipment: 5 experience: 5 instructor: 5 (if I could give a 10 I would)
