Fujinomori Jinja Shrine mga tour

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!

I received my reminder and instructions the day before the tour and you are requested to join the WhatsApp group for the tour. We meet outside the Nippombashi Station Exit 2. A lot of other tour groups as gather there to London buses so make sure you arrive early enough and keep your eyes peeled for whatever marker they are wearing/carrying. For our tour we had two tour guides, Nox and Rex. They were engaging and shared stories of Japan’s history of Osaka, Amanohashidate, Ine fishing village, and Miyama. This was definitely the highlight of our trip! One tip I would like to share is, make sure you eat breakfast beforehand and also bring a few snacks in case you end up not having time to eat lunch while exploring. Plan to eat in Amanohashidate, because that’s the only place where you’ll have extended time. We opted to have our tour guides purchase tickets for the Ine sightseeing boat tour as well as the chairlift in Amanohashidate. Get the milk and milk pudding in Miyama!

Our guide Ms Shion was amazing! She is very enthusiastic and engaging. The walk covers quite a lot at a good pace but we didn’t spot any maikos or geishas which was my main objective. I wonder if the route could be reversed so there’s a higher chance of spotting the talented artistes at the the Queen of Geisha district?

awesome experience! it's really rare to meet a geisha/maiko and it was so fun to play a game with her so close

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!

（Tour Guide）Ang gabay na kayang magpalit-palit ng Chinese, Japanese, at English, kasama ang kasamang marunong mag-Korean, ay nakapag-asikaso sa bawat miyembro ng grupo. Narinig namin ang kasaysayan at mga kuwento ng bawat atraksyon, at ang hindi na kailangan pang mag-research ang pinakamalaking benepisyo 😂. Nagbigay sila ng pre-order para sa tanghalian, na nagbigay sa amin ng mas maraming oras para maglibot sa Kiyomizu-dera at sa paligid nito, at masarap din ang pagkain. Ang itinerary ay maayos na naayos sa loob ng limitadong oras (ngunit kung ikaw ay isang manlalakbay na mahilig mag-enjoy nang matagal at manatili nang mas matagal para kumuha ng litrato, hindi angkop ang itinerary na ito, dahil ang oras na inilaan para sa Fushimi Inari Shrine ay hindi sapat para lakarin ang buong Senbon Torii!). (Tour Bus) Malinis at maayos, at ang biyahe ay napakakinis. Madali akong mahilo sa sasakyan, kaya kadalasan ay natutulog ako sa bus, at hindi ako nagising dahil sa masamang pagmamaneho.

This was such a great tour! Reon was our guide and he was fantastic. he walked at a good pace, had a picture book to show us everything he was talking about and knew soooo much about the topics he was talking on. he was able to answer all the questions. a very exciting part was we got to see a geisha in training (Maiko) walk by and it brought everything to life. Reon was quick to point her out so we didn’t miss the moment. great tour , lots of really cool information and not difficult walking. would highly recommend. was awesome seeing Kyoto at night!

Ito ay isang mahusay na paraan upang makita ang Gion. Dahil karamihan sa mga tao ay nandoon sa araw, ang gabi ang perpektong oras para pumunta. Dagdag pa, kung makukuha mo si Jasmine, magkakaroon ka ng isang napakatalinong gabay. Sulit na sulit ang pera!

This is Group 3 from the September 22nd tour! This was easily one of the most satisfying parts of our trip 😊 Thanks in particular to our guide, Oh Seok-bong, it felt like much more than just a sightseeing tour—we learned so much about Japan. Even during the bus rides, he kept sharing a wealth of practical information for travelers, such as Japanese culture, daily life tips, local hidden gems for dining, and shopping lists 🚌📌 Rather than the cliché information you easily find online, much of it was immediately useful on the ground, which also helped with the rest of our independent travel. I especially remember him telling us, "Don't buy your souvenirs here; go to Don Quijote instead, as these are overpriced" 😂 It was both funny and touching because it felt like he was genuinely looking out for our wallets 💸 The sightseeing itinerary and explanations were wonderful, and even after the tour ended, he told us to contact him anytime if we needed restaurant reservations. He even said that if we ever return to Japan after going back to Korea, we could reach out to him with no strings attached, and that he would help us if any issues arose during our travels, which gave us great peace of mind 🙏 It's common for relationships to end as soon as a one-day tour is over, so his continued care and support left a strong impression. We were completely satisfied with the sightseeing, the information, and the kindness, and he is a guide we would love to meet again on our next trip to Japan. We made wonderful memories thanks to guide Oh Seok-bong 😊 Highly recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
