I joined this day trip and really enjoyed it! The stops were beautiful, and the time at each spot felt just right. Sanzen-in Temple was my favourite. We even got to see some early autumn leaves. Our guide, Mei Ling, mainly spoke Chinese since most guests were Chinese-speaking, but she still did her best to explain things in English for us. Her efforts helped us enjoy the trip fully; really appreciated. Overall, a nice and relaxing way to explore these scenic places. Would recommend!

The last day of the three-day weekend, everywhere was crowded. Luckily, today was a one-day tour group, so I didn't have to worry about transportation. Although there was traffic on the way back, there was nothing I could do about it. The tour guide, Xiaoyu, was very nice and thoughtfully told us the meeting time and place!

this is the very first time that we booked this kind of service. this is aint cheap but worth the money. the driver is professional and on time. he picked us up from our hotel and drop us again in the same location in the evening. the vehicle is clean and comfortable. we communicated to the driver via viber. we really enjoyed this day in Kyoto and Nara. i will booked this again the next time I have guests who wanted to visit Kansai.

Our tour guide, Csaper, was very dedicated!! There was plenty of time, and going to 4 places didn't feel rushed.

This is the second time me and my partner booked a tour with Gogoday Travel service. As usual had an amazing time. Everything went smoothly. Today’s one-day tour to the White Beard Shrine and the Floating Shrine at the Hikone Pavilion around Lake Biwa was truly enjoyable. The scenery was stunning, especially at La Collina, and the food was delicious. Our tour guide, Casper, was warm, enthusiastic, and attentive — a good guide really can turn a simple trip into a memorable experience.

On my first trip to Shiga, it was quite a distance from Osaka and Kyoto, so taking a tour with transportation was more convenient. There was an optional 4000 yen fee for the ropeway and lift to the mountain top. Unfortunately, the weather was poor with very heavy fog. It would be worth visiting if the weather were better.

I planned my own day trip from Osaka to Awaji Island with a private car, and since Awaji Island is part of Hyogo Prefecture and quite a distance away, the car rental company was very considerate and upgraded our vehicle, making the whole trip very comfortable! The driver's skills were excellent, and at each attraction, they thoughtfully got out of the car to help open doors and load/unload luggage. They also helped estimate travel times. 10 hours felt like just the right amount of time, and we visited Awaji Hanasaki Garden, Izanagi Shrine, the Great Naruto Bridge Memorial Hall, and took a whirlpool sightseeing boat tour at Naruto Strait. We also got to try the Happy Pancakes and Awaji Wagyu beef burger~ I was very satisfied~ Highly recommend it!

The weather was great today for a day trip to Lake Biwa Observation Deck, Shirahige Shrine Floating Torii Gate, and La Collina. Overall, it was a very good experience. The scenery was beautiful, especially at La Collina, which offered both delicious food and beautiful views. Our guide, Casper, was very enthusiastic and responsible. A good guide can really add color to a simple trip.
