Tenryu-ji Temple tours

This is a must do when in Kyoto and have little time. My 70 year old mon and I joined tour. Majo and Tim were just fantastic! We saw 3 major, incredible Kyoto sites, received macha ice cream, tasted saki, and took several photos. My mom did the hike to Iwatayama mountain, bring good shoes, water. Luckily we had the best weather. Wouldn’t recommend in high, hot temperatures for children and elderly.

Our guide Katsuhiko was super nice and he even took us to an amazing garden in Arashiyama among the shrines and the saga o romantic train. I definitely recommend the tour you won’t regret it.

Our Kyoto tour was absolutely wonderful, thanks to our outstanding guide. He was extremely well-mannered, very cooperative, and genuinely friendly, which made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable from the very beginning. He listened carefully to what we wanted to see and made sure every detail was thoughtfully covered. Not only did he show us all the places on our list, but he also went above and beyond by introducing us to additional spots we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. His knowledge, flexibility, and warm personality truly enhanced our visit to Kyoto. We highly recommend this tour guide to anyone visiting Kyoto—he made our experience unforgettable.adding to that the good restaurants recommendations

it was such an honor and a great experience. Definitely worth the money. We had fun as Ai was such an excellent guide. She provided nuances between Maiko and Geiko, correcting the preconceived notions given by the movie, Memoirs of a Geisha, and being an excellent entrepreter. Umemai-san, the maiko that performed for us, was very amazing. For someone so young to be able to perform for us with great confidence and answer all of our questions, she was just superb. Great job for GuideMe Japan Team for arranging this tour!

Our tour guide, Hua Hua, is the best that a group can have. He is very funny and keep our group alive. He constantly updates us on what to expect and the places to go around Arashimaya. He is a good singer, too! Thank you for hosting us, Hua Hua!

Did this tour with my family and we all thoroughly enjoyed it. Our tour guide Aki was kind, informative and always ensured no one was left behind. I really enjoyed the historical facts she provided while we walked through the gardens of Tenryu-ji Temple. The photos speak for themselves on how beautiful it was. After reading the reviews I wasn’t expecting very much with the lunch buffet but I liked it. It gave me Japanese school camp mess hall vibes and was tasty. Everything went to plan and based on my experience I would 100% recommend this tour. However, I understand some people get unlucky when the boat ride is cancelled due to low water levels or excess rain, and the river ride is a huge part of the experience. Thank you to the HIS team for an unforgettable day! どうもありがとうございます

This tour was so peaceful and one of my best. There is a lot of walking but worth every step. The serenity of this tour is amazing. Every sight is breathtaking and the guide, Time had so much knowledge. The monkey farm was a hike, but the view from the top was amazing and the monkeys were adorable. A must do tour.

what an wonderful experience. the performance and information provided by the lovely Maiko Umemai was absolutely splendid and our guide Genki did a fabulous job in hosting us and providing translations throughout. thankyou all 100% recommend to anyone wanting a cultural experience. we didn't participate in the Shrine tour afterwards due to us stumbling upon the Shrine on the way to the geisha experience however I have no doubt that would have been fantastic aswell
