    Our guide did her best to navigate through the large crowds at each site. The time at each site was very sort, not leaving sufficient time to enjoy. Other tours we enjoyed used GPS and web narration.

    Our guide Harry seemed more interested in keeping us moving than in our experience and enjoyment of the visit. At one point I was told to “keep up the pace”! Not what I wanted to hear as I am trying to see the sites. It was speed touring.

  • Excellent one day tour in Kyoto

    5 great sites to visit with excellent lunch. The Tour guider is knowledgeable and kind to all guests. Have to expect a lot of walking (at least 12,000 steps, some uphill).

  • Wonderful introduction to Kyoto.

    Although it was hot, and the tourist numbers were overwhelming on the long weekend, this was an excellent day out. Our guide Harry managed the logistics and the late comers really well and although time was tight at some sights, it was long enough to get an overview. I’m so glad we chose the buffet lunch - a wide range of delicious Japanese food to sample.

  • Full day of coordinated Kyoto splendour

    This is a big day... staff are amazing and the driver got us to where we needed to be on time and safely... Harry our tour guide was just lovely.. genuinely cared about everyone on the bus and was also knowledgeable and funny... he did not sit down at all the whole time. Each destination was just lovely.. just did not get enough time at some and you need to try and keep some pace of walking... Kyoto is hectic especially around Bamboo Forest... but overall a great day ... a smaller group would have been nicer
