We had such a wonderful experience on our Amanohashidate and Kyoto day tour from Osaka! Our tour guide, Sarah, was absolutely great. We departed at 8 AM sharp, and she shared interesting information about the city and our destinations, suggested good food spots, and recommended a route to make the most of our visit. Sarah has a pleasant personality and is genuinely fun and funny, which made the trip even more enjoyable! The bus was also very comfortable, and we were able to sleep peacefully on the way to our destination, so we felt well-rested before exploring. Although the destinations were crowded, the lines moved surprisingly quickly, and the views were absolutely majestic and worth the trip! Everything was well-organised, and we genuinely enjoyed the experience. Highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting from Osaka and want to explore these beautiful destinations without the stress of planning everything yourself. Sarah was a fantastic guide!

This was a wonderful and unforgettable trip! Highly recommended for travelers who want to deeply explore the natural scenery around Kyoto and traditional Japanese culture. Visiting Amanohashidate, the Ine Funaya, and Miyama-cho all in one day, each attraction offered completely distinct characteristics. The natural landscape of Amanohashidate was stunning, the Ine Funaya was filled with a serene and charming fishing village vibe, and Miyama-cho's thatched-roof village let us experience the unique charm of traditional Japanese countryside. The entire tour was rich and fulfilling, and being able to appreciate such diverse Japanese scenery all at once was truly worth it! Special thanks to our tour guide today, Theodore Chen! His leadership made the whole journey even more enjoyable and allowed us to gain a deeper understanding of the history and culture of each spot. A great guide really adds so much value to a trip, turning sightseeing into more than just taking photos for check-ins, creating much deeper memories instead. If you want to escape the hustle and bustle of the city and enjoy Japan's unique natural landscapes, traditional architecture, and rustic rural scenery, I highly recommend this tour! Whether it is your first time visiting Kyoto or you want to explore a different side of it, it is well worth joining.

Good tour cover main attractions that are just enough and not too tiring. Also suitable for old people, kids. There is not much walking so it’s a good break from some tiring days taking train around. Tour guide Zoey is very accommodating and helpful. The drive was smooth.

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.🥺🥺

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! 🌊🛳️✨

Our tour guide, Mr. Hu, was very thorough and detailed, explaining each itinerary clearly. His historical explanations during the tour were very interesting, and he also gave us appropriate time to rest. This tour was well worth it and a lot of fun.

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!

I think this is my first time leaving a review while using Klook. I am Korean and traveled alone. Overall, I am 100% satisfied. Although I rode with foreign tourists, there were a few other Koreans including myself, and it was so great that our guide, Lee Song-ran, explained everything in Korean. When I visited Amanohashidate back in May, it was during Golden Week, so I couldn't ride the lift ㅠㅠ I was nervous that I wouldn't be able to ride it this time either, but I was so happy it was easy to do so!! The water was so clean, and it was a feast for the eyes. Visiting the thatched-roof rural village early in the morning was great for a stroll. I tried the sweet potato donut that was recommended—it was hot and made a great, light breakfast. Going to Ine Funaya to watch the gulls and taking a walk in the tranquil countryside village was the best part of all. Also, the bus driver drove in a way that really relieved any frustration; his driving was simply the best!!! It was also nice that the guide took pictures for everyone on the bus tour whenever we arrived at a nice spot. If I visit again, I will definitely use Gogo Tour❤️

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!
