Nintendo Development Center tours

During the 7-day 6-night free travel, I specially arranged a day to sign up for a group tour in Kyoto. The main attractions this time were Kinkakuji Temple, Kiyomizu Temple and Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. The overall itinerary was all the attractions I really wanted to visit. I was super nervous before departure, after all, it was my first time traveling in this way, and I wanted to participate selfishly, but in fact I really felt great. The entire time control and itinerary arrangement were all very appropriate. I would like to thank our tour guide Xiao Fu (Alvin) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. During the trip, he explained the history of the attractions in Chinese and English, and shared many recommended restaurants, allowing us to use time quickly and accurately, and he would also remind everyone in the group of the meeting time and place in a timely manner. Our group had a large number of people and we took the bus, but Xiao Fu still cared about everyone's situation, whether there was anything they wanted to eat, etc. He was always willing to help. Especially when my son fell and injured both knees, Xiao Fu immediately went to buy disinfectant and dressings for us. I am really grateful, otherwise we might not be able to have fun. The child felt embarrassed afterwards and wanted to thank this big brother. We returned to Osaka at nearly 6 o'clock and had plenty of time to go shopping. After returning home, everyone felt that they had a fulfilling and happy day.

Very interesting experience! Our guide was easy to understand and shared so much information with our group. I learned a lot and enjoyed the performances. The question/answer portion makes the event more personal.

Itsuki was an excellent guide who provided us with a wealth of information about Geisha culture and history. We learned a lot during the tour, and she also offered great recommendations for other activities to enjoy while in Kyoto. I highly recommend this tour to anyone interested in Geisha culture and the history of Gion.

The itinerary was absolutely fantastic! We started in Nara, where the deer-feeding experience was delightful, and the deer were incredibly cute. On the bus, our tour guide, Willa, patiently explained the precautions we needed to take when feeding the deer, allowing us to fully enjoy the experience. Next, we headed to Arashiyama for a relaxing lunch and strolled around, admiring the beauty of the bamboo forest, which was incredibly relaxing. A particularly pleasant surprise was finding Rilakkuma, Miffy, and Snoopy specialty shops, along with other unique stores. After that, we arrived in Kyoto and visited the main Chiikawa store, where we bought special Kyoto Chiikawa figurines. Of course, the red "Senbon Torii" (thousands of torii gates) at Fushimi Inari Shrine were breathtaking, and the spectacular view made for incredibly beautiful photos. Our tour guide, Fred, shared many local stories with us, giving us a deeper understanding and experience of the local culture. This trip left a deep impression on us in every location, leaving us with unforgettable memories.

Fantastic tour from Amigo tours and our guide Paula. We would have never been able to cover all of these places in a single day without this tour. So I highly recommend this tour. Paula was very knowledgeable and was able to efficiently navigate a large group of 41 throughout the tour. I found that couple of the places were extremely crowded so that was the negative part in my experience. One recommendation: Please consider using audio devices for the large group. It makes listening to tour very easy. Overall a great tour with a fantastic guide in Paula. Highly recommended.

Booked this tour last minute and didn’t regret it! Frederick was an excellent guide and managed to switch between English and Chinese flawlessly with a group over 20 people. Bus leaves ON TIME so don’t be late. He gives really clear instructions though on where to go and where to meet and what time to be back. Enough free time and instructions of where to take good photos. You’ll need to move quickly at Kiyomizu though if you’re hoping to make it to all the sights. I’d recommend returning if possible and using this tour to get a lay of the land. Well worth the money since Kyoto is so spread out. Expect lots of stairs and walking though.

The tour guide is very professional, and the geisha performance is fantastic.

We had a great time on this tour. the district was beautiful at night. Nagoya was our guide and he was awesome. He let us linger around the tea houses in hopes we would see a maiko. He was bmvery knowledgeable about the area and the history.
