Reviews: Shiga tour: Lake Biwa valley · Lake Biwa observation + Shirahige Shrine, Omihachiman 1-day tour
Guest User2026-11-08
Lake Biwa is beautiful, and taking the cable car to the top offers a panoramic view. The weather was intermittently sunny and cloudy that day. It was cold and windy on the cable car, but the experience was unique and memorable. Our guide, Millie, was very attentive, frequently reminding me of my solo traveler and noticing my minor injury, offering to help. She deserves praise.

This off-the-beaten-path tourist destination was less crowded and had beautiful scenery. The itinerary was well-paced and relaxed, and the driver and guide provided attentive and enthusiastic service. It was a very satisfying day trip.

Reviews: Kansai Shiga Tour: MIHO MUSEUM + Old Chikurin-in + Shirahige Shrine, Enjoy the Scenic Views of Lake Biwa
Guest User2026-10-05
A short day trip to the Miho Museum, the former Chikurin-in Temple, and the floating torii gates of Shirahira Shrine, though brief, left me with wonderful memories. Entering the Miho Museum, designed by I.M. Pei, and walking through a tunnel into a mountain retreat, the architecture blends seamlessly with nature, like a modern-day Shangri-La. The former Chikurin-in Temple is serene and elegant, its Japanese garden reflecting a tranquil and healing atmosphere, full of Zen spirit. At dusk, arriving at Lake Biwa, the vermilion torii gates float on the water, reflecting the sky and creating a breathtaking ambiance. The journey seamlessly connects art, Zen temples, and lake views, offering a comfortable pace. This short day allowed for an immersive experience of Shiga's unique scenery, with every view unforgettable, making it a truly worthwhile trip to the Kansai region.

Highly recommend this tour! Our guide, Bunny, was incredibly enthusiastic and even took photos with us! She provided very detailed explanations of the attractions and local customs, and was very attentive to the group members, checking on them frequently. 👍 The itinerary was also well-planned.
