Reviews: Kyoto & Nara Classic Day Tour with Friendly Deer
Guest User2026-02-19
During my second trip to Osaka, I booked a Kyoto bus tour that I had really wanted to go on and went! As with most overseas trips, I thought I would have a hard time finding the bus, but Guide Chuhong personally responded to all my inquiries in Korean via KakaoTalk, including the time and location. Even when I got separated from the group during the tour due to independent travel, she sent me the meeting time and location, and even a link every time I moved. She was so kind. I could only upload 9 photos, but I couldn't upload them all... I really recommend Guide Chuhong!!!! This holiday trip was so much fun. Thank you.

Reviews: Japan Kyoto Kiyomizu-dera Temple + Yasaka Shrine + Nara Park + Fushimi Inari Shrine One-Day Tour
Guest User2026-02-25
I went on a Kyoto tour with guide Seo Geum-bong. The schedule was set so that it wasn't too difficult, which was nice. While we were traveling, he talked about Japanese history and current affairs in an interesting way, which greatly improved my understanding of the area. It was a fun trip to Kyoto, so I think the tour was a good decision.

Reviews: Kyoto and Nara Day Tour │ Kiyomizu-dera Temple + Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine + Nara Park
Guest User2026-02-22
The day trip was a great experience; the itinerary was well-planned and the pace was relaxed and not rushed. We met at the agreed-upon location, and the entire journey was quiet and peaceful. Most importantly, no one kept asking for a review after the trip, which was excellent. It would have been even better if the driver had provided some commentary along the way.

Reviews: Kyoto in a Day: The Ultimate Top 4 Highlights Tour (From Osaka/Kyoto)
Guest User2026-02-04
I felt this was a truly heartwarming trip to Kyoto! From the magnificent golden splendor of Kinkaku-ji to the thousand torii gates of Fushimi Inari Shrine, every stop was breathtaking and thought-provoking. The tour guide was knowledgeable, articulate, and incredibly attentive, patiently answering all our questions.

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! 🤤
