Passeios por Yasaka Shrine

Sui was nice and communicated well on WhatsApp. This is a good option if you do not want the hassle of commuting, especially if you have a young child or an elderly person in your group, just like we did. They also provided a car seat for our toddler.

Bringing children to Japan for summer vacation, there are many places we want to visit, but transportation requires planning, and without a guide, we might not understand anything after a tour. I've never joined a one-day tour or similar travel groups in China, so I tried this with an open mind, and it truly deserves a five-star review! This package is really great and affordable (I never expected something so good to be so cheap). The guide is a very enthusiastic Chinese person with permanent residency in Japan. The entire bus journey was very comfortable, and along the way, the guide shared a lot about the customs and culture of Japan over the many years they've lived there, which was very insightful. Many thanks to guide Wu Shifeng, who was excellent and very professional, with no hidden costs! We visited classic Kyoto landmarks in one day, and the pace was just right! Highly recommended! Everyone, go for it with confidence!

Standing before the Great Buddha Hall of Todai-ji Temple, one feels incredibly small. Not physically small, but small in the scale of time. This, the world's largest wooden structure, has stood for over 1,200 years. Inside the hall, the Great Buddha, approximately fifteen meters tall, gazes down upon you with serene eyes. His gaze, having weathered a thousand years of wind and rain, falls upon you. In that moment, all imaginings of "greatness" take on a tangible form. A day in Nara is not just about seeing deer; it is a dialogue with the enduring legacy of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, a silent stand before history itself.

We had a great day exploring Kyoto with Michiko. She was a very kind lady and full of local information. She had a perfect itinerary scheduled and adapted it on the go to fit our needs. We would definitely recommend her and her services to anyone looking to explore Kyoto.

Un tour davvero interessante che ci ha portato in luoghi a Gion e dintorni che non avremmo trovato da soli! Tommy, la nostra guida turistica, era molto preparato e ha mantenuto il gruppo interessato. Servono scarpe comode per camminare.

Muy asequible y perfecto para aquellos que desean tours a su propio ritmo pero quieren evitar la molestia de los desplazamientos. Nuestro guía turístico Lee fue muy atento y amable en todo momento. Incluso nos entregó un pequeño recuerdo a cada uno antes de finalizar el tour. ¡Gracias!

During our 7-day, 6-night independent trip, we specifically set aside one day to join a group tour in Kyoto. The main attractions for this tour were Kinkaku-ji Temple, Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. All the places on the itinerary were ones I really wanted to visit. I was incredibly nervous before we left, as it was my first time traveling this way, and it was a tour I personally really wanted to join. However, it turned out to be truly wonderful; the time management and itinerary planning were all very appropriate. I want to give a huge thank you to our tour guide, Xiao Fu (Alvin) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. Throughout the trip, he explained the history of the attractions in both Chinese and English, and also shared many recommended restaurants, allowing us to make efficient use of our time. He also reminded everyone of the meeting times and locations in the group chat when appropriate. Our group was quite large, so we traveled by bus, but Xiao Fu still checked in on everyone's well-being and if they had any specific food preferences, etc., and he was always enthusiastic to help. Especially when my son fell and injured both knees, Xiao Fu immediately went to buy disinfectant and dressings for us as soon as he found out. We are truly grateful; otherwise, we might not have been able to relax and enjoy ourselves. My son later felt a bit shy but wanted to thank this 'big brother.' We returned to Osaka around 6 PM, which gave us plenty of time to shop. After returning home, everyone felt that the day was fulfilling and enjoyable.

Ahead of my trip to Osaka, I thought it would be good to experience the beauty of traditional Japan and take a tour, even though it's summer. So, I diligently searched for tours a month in advance. After watching vlogs and reading tour reviews, I found this particular tour based on the opinion that 'about three places a day seems appropriate.' Our guide was Mr. Oh Seok-bong, and I felt a sense of trust when he introduced himself in various languages after we boarded the bus. He precisely pointed out the culture of Japan and the key viewing points of the attractions, allowing us to see the places we wanted to visit with an efficient itinerary! Furthermore, his recommendations for good restaurants and entertaining stories throughout the tour made it a satisfying experience. If I get the chance to take another tour, I'd love to have Mr. Oh Seok-bong as my guide again!!! 😆 Thank you for making our trip so enjoyable!!!
