Prehliadky Tōfuku-ji Temple

Yutaka was a fantastic tour guide, we had a memorable day visiting the temples & we learned lots along the way. He was full on interesting information and local knowledge. The temples were stunning and not too busy with other tourists. Lovely guided meditation session with a monk & a delicious vegan lunch to finish off the tour perfectly. We highly recommend this to anyone looking for an authentic experience.

Our guide, Sarah organized this tour extremely well. Her instructions were clear and she guided us to each attraction seamlessly. We had an amazing time both at Ine Bay and Amanohashidate. This tour is a must if you're in Japan!

Naša sprievodkyňa, pani Shion, bola úžasná! Je veľmi nadšená a pútavá. Prechádzka pokrýva pomerne veľa vecí v dobrom tempe, ale nevideli sme žiadne maiko ani gejše, čo bol môj hlavný cieľ. Zaujímalo by ma, či by sa trasa nedala otočiť, aby bola väčšia šanca spozorovať talentované umelkyne v štvrti Kráľovnej gejší?

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!

Svoju pripomienku a pokyny som dostal deň pred prehliadkou a vyžaduje sa, aby ste sa pripojili k skupine na WhatsAppe pre túto prehliadku. Stretávame sa vonku pri východe č. 2 stanice Nippombashi. Zasadá tam veľa iných turistických skupín pri autobusoch v anglickom štýle, takže sa uistite, že prídete dostatočne skoro a budete dobre sledovať akékoľvek označenie, ktoré majú na sebe alebo ho držia. Na našej prehliadke sme mali dvoch sprievodcov, Noxa a Rexa. Boli pútaví a delili sa o príbehy z histórie Japonska týkajúce sa Osaky, Amanohashidate, rybárskej dedinky Ine a Miyamy. Toto bol rozhodne zlatý klinec nášho výletu! Jediný tip, ktorý by som chcel zdieľať, je, že sa uistite, iż raňajkujete vopred a vezmite si so sebou aj nejaké občerstvenie pre prípad, že by ste nakoniec nemali čas na obed počas objavovania. Naplánujte si jedlo v Amanohashidate, pretože to je jediné miesto, kde budete mať viac času. Zvolili sme si, aby nám naši sprievodcovia zakúpili lístky na vyhliadkovú plavbu loďou v Ine, ako aj na sedačkovú lanovku v Amanohashidate. Určite ochutnajte mlieko a mliečny puding v Miyame!

úžasný zážitok! je naozaj zriedkavé stretnúť gejšu/maiko a bolo tak zábavné zahrať si s ňou hru takto zblízka

Our tour guide, who could switch between Chinese, Japanese, and English, and also spoke Korean, made sure every group member was taken care of. It was a huge benefit not having to research the history and stories of each attraction ourselves. They offered pre-ordered lunch, which allowed us more time to explore Kiyomizu-dera Temple and its surroundings, and the food was quite good. The itinerary was well-paced for the limited time (however, this tour is not suitable for travelers who prefer to savor sights slowly or spend a lot of time taking photos, as the time allotted for Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine doesn't allow for walking the entire Senbon Torii path!). The tour bus was clean and tidy, and the ride was smooth and steady. I'm prone to motion sickness and usually sleep on buses, and I didn't wake up due to poor driving.

Toto je skvelý spôsob, ako vidieť Gion. Keďže väčšina davov je tam cez deň, noc je ideálny čas ísť. Navyše, ak dostanete Jasmine, budete mať neuveriteľne znalého sprievodcu. Úplne to stojí za tie peniaze!

Bola to skvelá prehliadka! Naším sprievodcom bol Reon a bol fantastický. Kráčal dobrým tempom, mal so sebou obrázkovú knihu, aby nám ukázal všetko, o čom hovoril, a vedel toho naozaj veľa o témach, o ktorých rozprával. Dokázal odpovedať na všetky otázky. Veľmi vzrušujúca časť bola, že sme videli prechádzať gejšu v tréningu (Maiko) a to všetko oživilo. Reon na ňu rýchlo upozornil, aby sme tento moment nezmeškali. Skvelá prehliadka, veľa naozaj zaujímavých informácií a nenáročná prechádzka. Veľmi by som odporúčal. Bolo úžasné vidieť Kjóto v noci!
