Reviews: Kyoto Arashiyama in-depth 1-day tour, pick-up and drop-off in Kyoto and Osaka, bamboo forest path, Togetsukyo Bridge
Guest User2025-07-03
This Arashiyama + Sanzenin itinerary was fantastic! Traveling with kids, the temperature reached nearly 37 degrees Celsius that day, but it was at least 3-4 degrees cooler inside Sanzenin. Sanzenin was lush and green, and many people were taking photos there. Arashiyama was much more crowded than Sanzenin, so I recommend having lunch there; many restaurants only accept cash, so remember to bring cash! For those traveling with young children, it's best to book Arashiyama Scenic Railway tickets in advance. Ask the travel agency's customer service about the most convenient time to book. The round trip by train takes one hour. We even saw people rafting from the train, but we didn't have time. Maybe next time! A special mention goes to our tour guide, Liu Ling; she was incredibly helpful on the train, providing explanations and even taking us to the station before the train departed. On the return trip, she gave the children Arashiyama refrigerator magnets.

Reviews: [Sea of Kyoto 1-day tour] Amanohashidate + Ine no Funaya + Kayabuki no Sato in Miyama + Chionji Temple
Guest User2026-09-05
Our tour guide, Oscar, is young but experienced. He departs on time and provides engaging commentary in both Chinese and English throughout the day. He sends real-time information about attractions, meeting times, and parking locations to all tourists, making it easy for everyone to plan their visit. The itinerary is also well-balanced, making it a very worthwhile trip!

Reviews: Kyoto in a Day: The Ultimate Top 4 Highlights Tour (From Osaka/Kyoto)
Guest User2026-08-23
Oscar, our guide, was excellent in both English and Chinese, providing detailed explanations and taking care of everyone in the group! The overall itinerary was well-paced, with a well-planned route that made the trip enjoyable without being tiring. The guide led us through the interior and exterior of Nijo Castle. In Arashiyama, he guided us to the entrance of the bamboo grove; at Kinkaku-ji and Fushimi Inari, he led us to the entrance of the scenic area, explaining the route, time, and pick-up point. It was fantastic! Although we booked a 46-person group due to the heat, it was actually a small group with a guide and driver. Excellent value for money, great value for money, and very convenient to get on and off at Kyoto Station. Thank you! We also met another guide, Gao, plus a very knowledgeable international student! He helped take care of the Chinese-speaking tourists in the group and took photos for us. Thank you! My husband got along very well with him.

Reviews: 1-day tour to Amanohashidate, one of Japan's three scenic views & Ine no Funaya in the sea of Kyoto
Guest User2026-10-25
Our tour guide, Sister Lai, was incredibly kind and spoke so gently 🥰 She even prepared a guide to tell us which photo spots were must-sees – she was so thoughtful! The entire tour was guided in Chinese, and her explanations were insightful and impressive 👍🏻 Highly recommended! Plus, since many tour buses travel the same routes that day, Sister Lai's meticulous planning helped us avoid the crowded tourist spots – absolutely fantastic! The journey was really long, and the bus was completely full, making it quite cramped. I'm so grateful that a travel agency could help arrange such a long trip ☀️ The weather was perfect, the scenery was beautiful, and I was truly touched 🥹🥹
