Excellent service - Nancy and her friend were very helpful not only throughout the tour. They took time after the tour to help me get some medication because I was unwell. Thank you so much to Nancy and friend ( sorry.. I did not get your name) .

Visit to Arishayama Bamboo Forest and Grand Buddha Hall with Kimono experience . - It was a wonderful trip, with enough time to enjoy every place we stopped at. We enjoyed the bamboo forest and temple and also Nara Park - Deer land. Nancy our tour guide was excellent and our driver too. We highly recommend this tour.

Best tour ever. - This is the best tour ive been so far. I like that you have freedom to roam and not follow a tour guide. They drop you off to the spots and give you time to roam around and come back after certain time. It was the best. Nancy was great. Thank you.

One day, a lot to see - Kyoto is always a wonderful place, and this tour gave us the opportunity to explore different areas. Nara is beautiful, and the deer are very well respected and comfortable with tourists

Day trip from Osaka - It was a perfect way to see the sites around Osaka. We had ample time on each place to explore and even have a snack. Our guide gave us enough information about each place and even gave us some recommendations on where to eat.

Green Green Bamboo - Beautiful bamboo forest and walking trail though it was short and easy. Public transport can be easily found nearby. Highly recommended for part of Kyoto tour.

average guided tour not too engaging - it s an average lef tour not too much information provided about the places visited. Can recommend only if general style is more to visit independently than with a guide.

Great day spoiled by poor booking experience! - This would have been a 5 Star review as the tour itself and the tour guide were amazing HOWEVER Be very careful when booking this tour as there appears to be a mandatory kimono experience if you pick the wrong option when booking… which is 5000 yen per person… I had no idea I had booked this option and was forced to pay 2000 per person cancellation not to do an experience that I had no idea I had booked in the first place!!!! Very very misleading and almost did but didn’t spoil our day Check and double check what you are booking!

Don’t recommend - shuttle bus service - Firstly, the meeting spot was difficult to find. This tour was not a tour - just a shuttle bus service. The guide drops you off at the arrival point and tells you what time to meet back at the bus. Very disappointing as we expected a guide to tell us facts about the places visited and show us around when it was self guided. We would have been better off taking the trains and doing it ourselves. I do not recommend.
