The trip was brilliant. Hiro the guide was excellent and very informative. It was really good fun and an excellent way to see the city.
The tour was excellent and interesting. The morning and afternoon sections were led by different guides, who were very competent.
A great tour, well organised. Great lunch. Really feel we got to see the best of Kyoto.
Fabulous tour!
The tour guide was given a very detail and clear explanation. But due to tracffic issue, the time spend at Kiyomizu Temple was too short. So end up it was quite rush during visit to Kiyomizu Temple.
It was very well orgenize packed short and frutful tour around most interesting points in Kyoto
Nice
We had a good time overall and the lunch was good even though we did not have it at the Handicraft center as promised. We would recommend your tour to our friends.Tq
Fabulous tour. With limited time we wanted to see as much as possible and this accommodated. Well worth doing the full day tour, lunch was great.
I was kinda frustrated not seeing the Sakura in full bloom. I was imagining the flowers in the shrine, temples, parks, even across the street and the thought of it seems so splendid! But, nonetheless I have no regrets joining the tour. The tourist guide gives her best to tell us a brief history of their culture and tradition which I find very informative and interesting. I also love the lunch included in the package. One can never go wrong in choosing Japan as their travel destination. Thank you Viator for making it easy for the tourist see all these amazing and historical places.
we enjoyed the enlish commentary by both experienced guide. well worth it .Very organised and even the vegetarian lunch was 100%Japanese.
If you only have 1 day in Kyoto this is the tour for you. You won't get a lot of time to really sit back and enjoy the sites but you will see a lot. The Lunch wasn't the best but the sites and guides are fantastic!
Good sampler of the sights of Kyoto. Reasonably well run and with proficient guide, good command of English.
It was holiday season so some places were overcrowded but time at each stop was adequate.
The guides were good, the sights were worthwhile, the lunch was fine. Its a great way to see a lot of Kyoto in a short period of time. Lunch was just the right amount of time, not too long, not too short. Would recommend it.
Hotel pick up was smooth. Unfortunately that was the only part that was great. There were some change to the itinerary but was not told at the start. There was no traditional craft centre visit nor buffet lunch at the centre. The set lunch provided was not good and a coffee was an additional ¥350 if you wanted one. The guide was just just ok but not sure if it was due to her style as her English was good. The itinerary should be allocated differently since they skipped the craft centre. The last spot should be give a lot more time rather than for standing almost still under the same roof of a temple for 20 mins or so in the earlier temple visit.
