Florian was an excellent guide, providing detailed explanations of Japanese history. We also had the opportunity to discuss daily life, which was a truly informative experience! I highly recommend this tour.

Reviews: Kyoto: Meet-and-Greet, Maiko Show and Experience

We thoroughly enjoyed this experience and felt privileged to witness the artistry of the Maiko we met. Location at first seemed a bit strange but actually worked well for the experience.

Thank you to our driver and guide, Mr. Toshiya Oka, for your service today. Due to the weather, it snowed heavily yesterday and the road conditions were poor, so we arrived an hour late today. We were very touched to see how attentively the driver and guide accompanied my mother to Sanzen-in Temple. The road was icy and slippery, and he even thoughtfully used a shovel to help clear the snow to prevent my mother from slipping. My mother had a great time and saw the beautiful snow scenery.

When traveling without wanting to plan ahead but still wanting to see the sights, signing up for a day tour is a hassle-free option. Based on Ctrip's reputation for reliable quality, I chose their day tour this time, and it was excellent. Our tour leader, Ms. Jiang, was incredibly helpful, from informing us of the meeting point before departure to providing directions at the end. She patiently explained each attraction, and I learned a great deal from her. A huge thank you to Ms. Jiang for treating us to delicious pudding at her own expense! My trip to Osaka was wonderful, and these memories will stay with me for a long time!
Reviews: Kyoto Kifune Shrine, Arashiyama, and Sanzen-in Temples: A 9-person Small Group Tour to Enjoy the Cool Summer and Autumn Leaves
Guest User2026-02-07
On February 6th, we visited Sanzen-in Temple, Kibune, and Arashiyama. Our tour guide was Jiang Jun (Fukuda Hiroichi), and I would give him a five-star rating! The bus was a small, clean vehicle, although the seating was quite small. But that's typical for Japanese buses, so there's not much to do about it. The departure and return times for the attractions were well-managed. The driver was very attentive and responsible in answering our questions, and driving felt very safe. Since the passengers were all quite quiet and reserved, the bus was relatively quiet with little guided tour, which I believe is understandable, as he needed to concentrate on driving. Therefore, the lack of detailed explanations of the attractions was acceptable. One thing to note is that the driver showed me the seats for the Arashiyama sightseeing train, but when we arrived, we found that the cable car was closed in winter. Please be aware of this when you go!
