Reviews: A day trip to Kinkaku-ji Temple, Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and Fushimi Inari Shrine in Kyoto, Japan.
Guest User2026-10-21
If you are planning a short trip to Kyoto, I recommend the Kinkaku-ji, Kiyomizu-dera, and Fushimi Inari course guided by Sai-san. You will be able to comfortably enjoy the city's numerous challenges, such as its complex traffic and ticketing. Sai-san explained everything diligently and accompanied us right to the entrance, helping to ensure a safe trip. I send my gratitude and support once again for your hard work. Additionally, after arriving in Osaka for dinner, you recommended a restaurant with great value, so we went to Sushi-Ro; the food was delicious and the prices were reasonable. I believe your company will recognize your efforts to help in various ways. Go Sai-san!

Reviews: Kyoto Day Tour: Arashiyama + Sanzen-in + Kifune Shrine (Departure from Osaka or Kyoto | Optional Hotel Pickup / Small Group with Sagano Romantic Train)
Guest User2026-09-07
Having visited Kyoto several times, I finally realized I should explore more attractions instead of just stopping at Hanamikoji, Kiyomizu-dera, Fushimi, Inari, and Nishiki Market. So, I joined a small day tour to see three places I'd never been before. Since many Kyoto attractions are scattered, it's really inconvenient to visit several places in one day without a car. Sanzen-in Temple, Kifune Shrine, and Arashiyama—if I had to choose, I'd visit Sanzen-in Temple multiple times; it's so beautiful! Of course, early September isn't peak autumn foliage season, so Arashiyama wasn't at its most beautiful. Personally, I felt that without the autumn leaves, the place resembled Anji or Tonglu in Zhejiang—green mountains, clear water, and bamboo forests, nothing particularly special. The small tour departed from Osaka, which was especially convenient for us living in Kyoto, as we could sleep in a little longer, have breakfast, and wait for the tour bus to pick us up. The driver even arranged for me to be a tour guide on the spot, giving me tickets for the Sagano Scenic Railway and letting me lead nine people on a round-trip train journey and arrange seating. It was quite fun.

The guide, Jawad, guided us in a wonderful way and constantly provided interesting information about the sights and life in Japan. In just one day, we saw and heard a great deal about Kyoto and its history.

Wonderful tour to have s sneak peek of some of the most important landmarks in Kyoto. Yuta was our guide and was so kind with all of us. He made our tour very fun, interesting and day day went very fast. Lot of energy was transmitted from him to the group. I strongly recommend it since you can visit up to 6 different places in just 8.5hrs from Temples and Shrines. Thanks!
