Coisas para fazer em Nijō Castle

We had a wonderful time at the Shibori workshop. Yamamoto-san was very friendly and instructive. We got to dye our scarves in 2 colors and had a lot of designs to choose from. The workshop was about an hour long. It was cool to visit the museum upstairs as well.

This tour was great, very punctual, and they delivered 100% on what they promised. My guide "Effy" was super special; she explained everything very clearly, even with slides. Highly recommended.

Aye was an absolutely amazing tour guide at Nijo Castle! He was incredibly knowledgeable and shared so many fascinating details about the castle, its history, and features that we never would have noticed on our own. I had previously visited Nijo Castle without a guide, and I can honestly say that this experience was 100% better. I learned so much and walked away with a completely new appreciation for the castle and its history. On top of being an excellent guide, Aye was incredibly thoughtful and attentive. When it started to rain during our tour, he even offered to get umbrellas for us! It was such a kind gesture and really showed how much he cares about the people on his tours. I cannot recommend Aye enough. If you’re visiting Nijo Castle in Kyoto, having him as your guide makes the experience so much more meaningful and memorable. Thank you, Aye, for such a wonderful tour!

I had a great day in Kyoto! The itinerary was great and we managed to do and see so many things in one day. All of the activities were amazing and things I wanted to see and it was all really well organised and easy. I went as a solo traveller and if you’re looking for an easy day trip to Kyoto with no stress about transport and creating an itinerary then I highly recommend this tour!!! Our tour guide was great and super helpful and informative. Thank you :))

We spent an amazing day discovering Kyoto with Ciel, from Kiyomizu-dera to Fushimi Inari and beyond. She kept the whole day flowing effortlessly and made the experience feel unique. Ciel’s English was perfect and her enthusiasm was contagious. She brought a fun, relaxed vibe while still sharing plenty of insights along the way. Highly recommended, thank you Ciel!

It was great especially for the price paid. The driver only brings you from one location to the next. It is a self-guided tour which might work perfectly for your group. It did for us as I had kids with me and could not expect to hear from a guide for the entire day. The stops were incredible. Signing up for the tour takes all the logistics to do it yourself out of your hand.

We didn't get to see the castle, due to me booking on a Tuesday (perhaps worth mentioning on the booking), but visiting the two shrines and the Palace with KC was informative, as well as the drive around. His English was good, he was enthusiastic, and he used humor well throughout.

One of the best tours we ever had the privilege to experience. Our tour guide, Nobumasa Miyake, is a fine gentleman who was very engaging and knowledgeable and masterful at enlightening us with the historical facts and culture. His method of storytelling is direct with local lore, humor and personal experience which helped us feel like we are connected to the amazing culture and past of Japan. His empathy for our struggles to stay dry from the heavy rain that was pouring down upon us by offering to switch his large umbrella with our small umbrella is a fine example of his character, integrity and respect for others. In addition, to offering to help take pictures for us, giving away his copy of the map of Kyoto when learning it was our 1st time visiting Kyoto, and suggesting great spots for trying out food, shopping and exploring. We are so grateful to be guided by such an exemplary person and strongly recommend him to be anyone next tour guide! Thank you, Nobumasa Miyake and TripGuru!

Tour guide Liu Du provided detailed explanations and excellent service. He also responded quickly and accurately to inquiries about travel-related information. The overall quality of Gogoday tour guides is consistently high, and I will definitely join again next time.Experience: A great tourist attraction experience; it was very comfortable to sit on the bus and enjoy the scenery.
