Reviews: A day trip to Kinkaku-ji Temple, Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, Japan.
Guest User2026-10-20
I booked a one-day tour of Kyoto while on a 3-night, 4-day family trip to Osaka. Since it was my first time, I wasn't familiar with the meeting locations or the itinerary, but I appreciated that the guide reminded us of the meeting points via KakaoTalk the day before and shared stories about the places and culture throughout the bus ride. I was touched by how diligently our guide, Saidoshiko, spoke Korean, and she was incredibly responsible in her work. Because she spoke Korean so well, I believe even first-time travelers to Japan would feel no pressure regarding communication issues. Also, towards the end of the tour, she recommended a great restaurant for dinner, allowing my family and me to enjoy a delicious and affordable meal.

Reviews: Kyoto's ancient charm: A day trip to Fushimi Inari Shrine and Nara to feed the deer, with optional small group tours including hotel pick-up and drop-off.

I had the best day with Guide Seo Geum-bong! It was my first time in Japan and I didn't know much, but you explained everything thoroughly and took such good care of me. Thank you. I can't post a photo because my face is in it, but you took pictures for us, recommended food, and even though it was hectic leading a large group, you looked after us with such attention to detail. I hope to see you again!!

Reviews: A day trip of Culture Experience to Kyoto's ancient architecture, Nara Park with adorable deer, and Fushimi Inari Shrine.
Guest User2026-10-10
I booked this tour because I wanted to visit Kyoto for a day while staying in Osaka! I decided to go on a tour because I figured going on my own would require researching subways and buses, and I'd end up wasting a lot of time traveling. Since it was a private bus, the trip was very comfortable, and the guide at Kumumichi did a great job with the tips and explanations. 👍 I booked a tour that only visited the three most famous places because I wanted to look around at a leisurely pace. Since there is a lot of walking, it was great to be able to rest comfortably during the bus rides!! I think I made the right decision booking this! (The deer really enjoyed the grass you gave them at the deer park; thank you so much! 🤗👍) Thank you so much for recommending great restaurants on the way to Osaka and for helping me make a reservation at a restaurant I specifically requested!! Thanks to you, I had a really delicious dinner. 🫶✨️

The highway was closed. The whole journey took extra an hour! But it was smooth and the Chinese lady tour guide is very patience and polite! I have taken a lot of nice photo even though it was a raining day!

Reviews: 1-day tour to Amanohashidate, one of Japan's three scenic views & Ine no Funaya in the sea of Kyoto
Guest User2026-10-20
This was my first time participating in a one-day tour, and the experience was fantastic! Thank you to our guide, "Huahua," who was incredibly attentive and thoughtful. His explanations of the sights were very engaging. Knowing I was traveling alone, he even offered to record me feeding the seagulls on the boat. He also incorporated several singing performances on the bus and was always smiling. It was truly a wonderful travel experience!
