We really enjoyed this day trip. It was well organised. Yuki our guide was amazing. She really went into detail when explaining the history of the sites we visited and she could answer all our questions. Highly recommended.

Outstanding experience visiting shrines and temples, and learning the history of Japanese rule by Shoguns.

Tammy the tour guide was truly outstanding and helpful. She paid attention to the needs of every tourist in the group and kept everyone entertained.

As in all tours, we felt rushed and couldn't enjoy each stop fully.

The included lunch was tasty, but I was disappointed that we paid for 3 full tours and could only receive 2 entrees. I noted on my reservation that one of us, due to severe allergies, would be bringing her own food. We were hoping that her husband could enjoy the double entree. However, upon request for her entree, we were told that it was not available because we noted that she'd have her own food. I simply noted that to be sure there wouldn't be a problem.
Is it possible to receive any credit for her meal that no one was able to eat?

Great guide Mr. Yoshi kept us informed and entertained. The bus ride was comfortable. Feeding the deer in Nara was a highlight for me.

This was an absolutely great tour. Our guide, Momo, had the perfect personality, was very engaging and entertaining and was very skilled at keeping everyone on time in a kind, gentle but firm way. Sites visited were awesome, lunch (italian) was a pleasant surprise and the bus very comfortable. Great Job!!!

I highly recommend this experience! It was a great way to see a lot of key historical sites (and pet and feed some mostly friendly important deer) in Kyoto and Nara. Miyuki really brings the meaning of her name. Happy beauty! She was an excellent guide and had a lot of information that she could provide and was happy to answer any and all questions and take a few pictures as well. Mr. Kawabata was an incredible driver and also incredibly polite! We had a great time, learned a lot, and saw incredible sites. Definitely recommend if you're an English speaker visiting Japan for the first time! Arigatou gozaimasu!!
