Kyoto Station චාරිකා

Our tour guide, Zoya was superb. Fluent communication, experienced and friendly. The entire tour was smooth. The scenery was beautiful, although the weather was not really pleasant, but definitely worth the time and money. Highly recommended.

Really enjoyed this tour. We lucked out with multi lingual Charles who was excellent throughout - lots of knowledge and insight, helpful, and good fun. From the 07:45 pick up to drop off the trip was very well run and our driver managed to beat the traffic too giving us more time to explore beautiful Ine Bay. The boat ride was eventful with the seagulls, almost Hitchcockian! The rain came on at Amanohashidate however the views were still good and would definitely recommend the chair lift over the monorail. good value, fun trip, and so good to get out of the noise of Dotonbori for the day.

Last time, I visited Kiyomizu-dera Temple and Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, so this time I went to places I hadn't seen before. It was just before a long holiday, so there weren't many people, and it was wonderfully peaceful and quiet! When you actually see it, it's not so much 'Wow, that's amazing!' but rather beautiful scenery, the path you walk while admiring that scenery, various photos taken at photo spots, and an unexpected seagull zoo feeding (making eye contact with seagulls and hawks). I didn't have high expectations, but it was fun! The only downside is that the travel time is a bit long if you depart from Osaka! However, our guide, MICA, explained many things about Japan so well and took such beautiful photos that I even changed my KakaoTalk profile picture for the first time in a while! 😄

While preparing for my trip to Osaka from Germany, I felt it would be a huge regret not to visit Kyoto. Since I was traveling with two children, I wanted to avoid anything too strenuous. Then I discovered this bus tour, and throughout the trip, I kept saying it was an excellent choice. This was especially true because we were with Guide Goo Moon-gil. From our first meeting until the end, he was incredibly kind and explained everything so well, which made traveling with my children even more enjoyable. Thank you! Oh, and the reason I chose this product was that it wasn't about staying together for the entire itinerary, but rather it included bus pick-up and drop-off, guidance to the entrance, explanations of the attractions, and even restaurant reservations nearby. I think it would be great for those who, like me, might find it a bit much to constantly stick together. I'm even planning to book Guide Goo Moon-gil for my parents' trip to Osaka. He recommended several restaurants and delicious convenience store foods, but due to our schedule, we couldn't visit them all. However, I plan to buy a lot from the convenience stores to take back with us.

GREAT TOUR! lead by tour guide that can converse in eng chinese and japanese! well versed. the tour journey was definitely worth it. bus ride was 4 hours to and fro. the views were scenic and we get to feed seagulls!

It was our 12th day in Japan, and all the previous days had been exhausting. I had wanted to do this tour on my own, but the kids weren't keeping up as well anymore. I decided to book this tour a day in advance, and it was the best decision. We visited several places without getting too tired or worn out, and the kids happily continued. We wouldn't have been able to see so much on our own. Our guide and driver were very kind!

On September 24th, we took a tour of Kyoto guided by MIKA, and we thoroughly enjoyed it. The instructions for the meeting point and updates upon arriving in Kyoto were seamless, allowing us on-time tour departure without any delays. During the journey, we were deeply moved by our guide's detailed explanations and her passionate dedication in carefully checking whether everyone wanted to ride the amusement park lift and the sightseeing boat upon arrival. The tour itinerary and optional add-ons (the lift up to Amanohashidate Amusement Park and the Ine Bay sightseeing boat) were not excessive; they were essential components for an efficient tour, which made purchasing the full package feel very rewarding and worthwhile. The meal during the tour was also not bad in terms of saving time. Given the rather tight schedule, we think it was much better to grab a quick bite rather than searching for a restaurant and waiting in line, allowing us to spend ample time at the observation deck. Originally, we planned to rent a car and leave Kyoto early in the morning, but considering the difficulty of driving (unlike Korea, regional roads feature strict two-lane round-trip highway sections, speed limits, and strict railroad crossings) and driving in an unfamiliar area for the first time, choosing this tour over a self-drive rental trip was definitely the better choice. Based on this wonderful tour experience, we feel confident that next time we can comfortably travel to Amanohashidate and Ine on our own using a rental car. Thanks to our guide MIKA, who enthusiastically responded to all our questions, helped with souvenirs, and recommended great photo spots throughout the tour, it became a truly memorable experience. Although the physical distance and road conditions made for a tight schedule, the tour itinerary was exceptionally well-organized and fulfilling.
