Kyoto Day trips

Great experience to have one day tour to Ine Funaya and Amanohashidate. It is great option compare to go alone by train because it takes only 2hrs one way. Thanks to the guide, Ms. Yuna, She’s really informative, kind and helpful. she also help take a photo of me! overall the timeline all are on time!

what a lovely day... with a wonderful host Valarie!! we did nara park... valarie explained very well on what to do and not to do with the deers and she was so right!! we then did bamboo forest and the fushirima... Valarie was the most informative host ever!!... and she really went above and beyond explaining and guiding everyone.. she came round asking if we felt okay and listened to my request of turning ac off as we were all wet and cold. it was a fun day and informtive.

Our tour guide was Mr. Gu Wenji. This was my first time joining a one-day tour like this, and it was a great experience. There was no hard selling, just a heartfelt sharing of local Japanese culture. Mr. Gu is very impressive; he speaks multiple languages. When giving explanations, he would repeat them in Japanese, Korean, and Chinese, so there was no need to worry about not understanding. I also want to give a special shout-out because the night before, I accidentally left my power bank at a restaurant. Since I don't speak Japanese and didn't have a Japanese phone card, I couldn't call them back. So, I asked Mr. Gu for help, and he was more than happy to assist. He even told me that if I encountered any difficulties in Osaka in the following days, I could contact him. Hearing that was truly heartwarming! If I have the chance to join another tour, I would hope Mr. Gu could be our guide again.

Our guide Apple was so lovely and explained everything so well. The schedule was tight and the drive nearly 2 hours but the views were breathtaking. The weather was not our friend but we enjoyed the day.

We boarded the bus in Kyoto, and our tour group consisted of members from various countries. Our guide, Xiao Shen, switched into four-language mode, introducing everything in English, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean. His humorous and engaging style made everyone feel very comfortable. Xiao Shen handled all ticket purchases, coordination, and provided information about the train, Arashiyama route, and meeting points via Line. This allowed us to explore freely and simply meet at the designated time. The driver was excellent, providing a smooth ride that prevented motion sickness, and the seats were clean and comfortable. During the Hozugawa River boat ride, the weather was perfect. Four boatmen guided us downstream, introducing the environment and rock formations with simple animal vocabulary, accompanied by physical interactions and occasional tricks from the boatmen. With a gentle breeze and beautiful scenery, the trip was truly enjoyable.

Our guide Ms Shion was amazing! She is very enthusiastic and engaging. The walk covers quite a lot at a good pace but we didn’t spot any maikos or geishas which was my main objective. I wonder if the route could be reversed so there’s a higher chance of spotting the talented artistes at the the Queen of Geisha district?

awesome experience! it's really rare to meet a geisha/maiko and it was so fun to play a game with her so close

I had such a fun day on the Kyoto and Nara tour today! It rained a little, but it didn’t stop me from enjoying all the places we visited. I especially had a great time in Nara — just be careful with the deer! Our guide, Shine, was really kind, helpful, and well-organized. He always kept us updated about where and when to meet, which made the whole tour easy and enjoyable. I really enjoyed the tour and would definitely recommend it!

We’re so glad we decided to book our group tour with GoGoDay! From start to finish, everything was very well organised, making our trip smooth, enjoyable, and stress-free. A special thank you to our wonderful tour guide, Lui, who was incredibly accommodating, friendly, and helpful throughout the trip. We really appreciated how Lui shared interesting historical and cultural background at every place we visited. Overall, we had a fantastic experience with GoGoDay and would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for a well-organised, enjoyable, and memorable group tour.
