Lucruri de făcut în Takashima

Our tour guide Effy was amazing! She had a lot of knowledge of the area and great maps of each area. The views and food were amazing. I definitely recommend this tour. Don’t forget to take yen with you.

It was my first experience with klook and I couldn't be happier. Even if it was rainy the whole day, we could enjoy the itinerary as described thanks to Effy. She was amazing, she explained everything and was always ready to answer other questions and doubts. I would totally recommend 🌱

This was my first time joining a KLOOK one-day tour, and from the start, I was impressed by our guide Liu Du's professionalism. He seamlessly switched between Chinese, English, and Japanese for the tour commentary (speaking with a gentle and refined local charm). Throughout the trip, he was very attentive and caring towards the group members, providing detailed explanations. He was also very clear about pick-up/drop-off points and time management. At the Lake Biwa observation deck, he recommended we take the second cable car up to the very top to enjoy 360-degree views, and also suggested trying Omi beef steak, among other things. All of these experiences left us with wonderful memories of Kyoto. Thank you, Liu Du, and thank you, KLOOK, for such a fantastic tour. We look forward to seeing you again next time!

Wonderful day trip to the Miho Museum Our bus trip to the Miho Museum was one of the highlights of our time in Kyoto. Kangfu was both our driver and our guide, and he did a great job at both. He drove safely and comfortably, and he made the day easy and enjoyable from start to finish. The itinerary was perfect: not too long, not too short. We had enough time to enjoy the museum without feeling rushed, and we were back without being worn out. Thank you, Kangfu, for a memorable day. We'd happily recommend this trip to anyone visiting Kyoto.

The day before the one-day tour, we received an email from our tour guide, Sun Jiaxue (Yuki), detailing the itinerary, important notes, meeting point, and contact information. Since there were about 20 people in our group, we traveled by large bus. At the start of the one-day tour and just before reaching our destination, our guide Yuki provided detailed explanations and important information. She also used Line to send reminders about the itinerary and pickup locations. Itinerary Stop 1: Miho Museum - I.M. Pei's Utopia. Anyone studying architecture must experience the master's architectural design and its integration with the environment. Lunch was at our own expense; the rice balls and Miho tofu at the ticket center's restaurant are worth trying. (Photos 1-3) Itinerary Stop 2: Hiyoshi Taisha Shrine on Mount Hiei - This is the head shrine for over 3,800 Hie, Hiyoshi, and Sanno shrines across Japan, known for monkeys serving as messengers of the gods. (Photo 4) Itinerary Stop 3: Shirahige Shrine and Water Torii Gate on Lake Biwa - A legendary spot said to be closest to the gods. (Photos 5-6) Many thanks to our tour guide Yuki and the driver for their excellent service on today's one-day tour. Our family of four had a truly enriching experience.

This tour does not include the Biwako Valley ropeway tickets, but you can buy them on Klook, which is cheaper than buying them on-site. If you choose to board at Kyoto Station and get off at Osaka Station, your luggage can be stored on the tour bus. Look for staff wearing yellow vests with "gogoday" to check in. There are many tour groups on the same day, but overall the itinerary is very good and highly recommended. 08:00 Kani Doraku Dotonbori Higashi Store 09:20 Kyoto Station Hachijo-guchi Tourist Bus Parking Lot 10:20 (Stop for 30 min) Shirahige Shrine 11:30 (Stop for 3 hours) Biwako Terrace 15:30 (Stop for 1 hour) La Collina Omihachiman 16:30 Scheduled return departure 17:40 Kyoto Station Hachijo-guchi Tourist Bus Parking Lot 18:40 Kani Doraku Dotonbori Higashi Store

Tour guide Zhang Yanjin was extremely nice 👍 He drove smoothly, provided just the right amount of information, and kindly answered all our questions. I felt the time allocated for each stop was well planned. Also, thank you to all the fellow travelers who joined today—even though there were only 8 of us, everyone was quite punctual! ✅ I recommend renting an audio guide at Miho Museum ✅ (The last photo of Shirahige Shrine was edited because of bad weather 🤣)

Am nimerit de o zi de sărbătoare, așa că a fost foarte aglomerat și traficul a fost destul de greu. Din fericire, vremea a fost însorită, iar peisajele din timpul călătoriei au depășit așteptările. Ghidul nostru, Yafei, ne-a prezentat în detaliu în autocar istoria, cultura, gastronomia și cele mai bune locuri pentru fotografii ale fiecărei atracții, ceea ce a fost extrem de util pentru itinerar. Deși a fost mult trafic, ghidul a comunicat în permanență cu șoferul pentru a estima ora sosirii și ne-a ținut la curent cu orele estimate de sosire și durata vizitelor, permițându-ne să ne ajustăm așteptările. A fost foarte serioasă și responsabilă. Cât despre peisaje, Lacul Biwa este absolut superb, cu apele sale sclipitoare; ne-am plimbat pe munte, am făcut fotografii extraordinare și am experimentat atât telecabina, cât și podul suspendat (sky bridge). Priveliștea de pe munte a fost încântătoare și deschisă, iar noi ne-am distrat de minune. Singurul lucru la care trebuie să fiți atenți este că vântul pe vârf este puternic, așa că este indicat să purtați o geacă tip windbreaker și pantaloni lungi pentru a nu vă răci. Din cauza blocajelor în trafic, la ultima oprire, La Collina Omihachiman, am avut doar o jumătate de oră la dispoziție pentru cumpărături și poze. Ghidul ne-a condus foarte eficient direct până în inima fabricii de prăjituri, permițându-ne să admirăm principalele peisaje chiar înainte de apus; experiența a fost destul de plăcută. Per total, datorită vremii însorite și temperaturilor plăcute, această călătorie a depășit cu mult așteptările. Singurul neajuns a fost traficul, care a redus timpul alocat vizitelor la fiecare obiectiv, transformând excursia într-una destul de pe fugă. Întoarcerea a fost puțin întârziată, dar per total ne-am distrat minunat și ne-am simțit confortabil. Mulțumim ghidului nostru dedicat și responsabil, Yafei, precum și șoferului experimentat, care a condus lin, ne-a salutat cu căldură pe fiecare la urcarea și coborârea din autocar și ne-a ajutat cu bagajele!

The travel distance was a bit long, but the attraction itself was beautiful, making it well worth it. The cable car was a bit expensive, but still recommended. As for the tour guide, they were a bit disorganized; they actually lost a group member's cable car ticket and then went around asking if anyone had an extra. Their ticket management skills could definitely be improved.
