Reviews/Trip Moments

Reviews: Kyoto & Nara Classic Day Tour with Friendly Deer
Guest User2025-08-12
The tour guide contacted very promptly, the route of the itinerary was reasonable, the choice of attractions was also very representative, very classic, and there was a suitable time to play after the attractions. It is a very nice choice for not familiar with the traffic route and not wanting to bother to do the strategy. Very recommended!
Reviews: Japan Kyoto Kiyomizu-dera Temple + Yasaka Shrine + Nara Park + Fushimi Inari Shrine One-Day Tour
Guest User2026-01-08
On the second day of my trip to Osaka, Japan, I signed up for a one-day bus tour of Kyoto and Nara, and it went smoothly! I was a bit lost at the starting point, but thanks to the kindness of our guide, Seo Geum-bong, I was able to depart safely! It was so convenient to have a Korean guide. If you're worried about the language barrier, sign up without hesitation! Haha. Thank you so much for helping our family trip. We had a great time chatting about Japanese history and culture, and we were able to resolve our questions. You even took beautiful family photos for us. ^^ If I get the chance, I'd definitely sign up again! Thank you, guide Seo Geum-bong~^^
Reviews: Amanohashidate Sandbar & Ine Funaya Village Tour with Optional Sea Cruise
Guest User2025-12-02
🌳 3 Must-Do Things at Amanohashidate 1️⃣ Climb to the top of "Umbrella Pine Park" for a bird's-eye view of the sandbar → Take the cable car to the top (round trip ¥720), and take a "reverse Fuji" composition from the viewpoint overlooking the sea. → Hidden spot: The west side of the observation deck at the top of the mountain offers a stunning view of the sandbar and the Aso Sea side-by-side! 2️⃣ Walk barefoot on the "Natural White Sand Beach" → Take off your shoes and walk on 2km of pure white sand. The seawater washing over your ankles at high tide is incredibly soothing. → Rent a bicycle (¥500/hour) and chase seagulls along the sandbar, feeling the shape of the wind. 3️⃣ Visit "Chieunji Temple" for amulets → Vermilion torii gates paired with century-old pine trees; seek amulets for academic success/marriage (from ¥800). → Touch the "Manjushri Wisdom Wheel" and spin it three times; legend says it will make you smarter!

Guest User2025-11-23
Traveling alone, I booked a day trip to Kyoto departing from Osaka. 😆 Our guide, ViVi, was very friendly and attentive, providing excellent explanations in both Chinese and English. There was plenty of time for sightseeing, making it a very fulfilling day. I have wonderful memories of Kyoto. 😊 The matcha ice cream 🍦 was so delicious! 🤤
Reviews: Cute Deer Adventure|Kyoto and Osaka Day Tour with Nara Park, Fushimi Inari Taisha, and Arashiyama
Guest User2025-09-25
The day trip to Kyoto and Nara was a fantastic experience. The itinerary was well-organized, covering must-see attractions like Arashiyama, the train, Nara Park, Fushimi Inari Shrine, and the bamboo grove. We allowed ample time to admire the scenery and take photos at each stop without feeling rushed. The guide was very professional and knowledgeable, providing clear explanations. His enthusiasm was a real plus for the trip.
