A MUST visit !
Beautiful places. Kiyomizu temple is a must see for the scenery and the shopping.
Great English guided tour to some of the most famous attractions in Kyoto. The tour was very well organized and proceeded as planned. I absolutely enjoyed every single attraction and the tour guide gave an excellent explanation to every location.
Highly recommended if you have only one day in Kyoto or Osaka and haven't explore Kyoto. Great sightseeing experience especially Golden Pavillion, Sanjusangendo and Kiyomizu-dera Temple. Apart of that, Nijo Castle brings interesting knowledge about the Shogun and the Imperial lifestyle during the ancient time.
Interesting trip but to speedy. Tourist need time to visit interesting places and not to visit like all japanese people are visiting whole Europe in 1 week.
very good tour, all the stops were wonderful.
Fantastic tour. A must do whilst in Japan.
I have booked with viator (Paris,Belgium and Amsterdam tour) before and I am satisfied with the services,very professional and would definitiely recommend viator to my friends.
The tour was great except for the Kyoto Handicraft Center. The luncheon buffet was "ok". We had thought that there would be more vendors selling merchandise but there were only a couple of stores with not the best of deals. The tour to the different areas were great though. Our favorite was the Golden Pavilion and Sanjusangendo. Great cultural experience!
The tour was quite good..we visited a good number of places and it did not feel rushed. The guides were interesting and full of facts and the meet/greets were punctual and welcoming. The afternoon tour was better than the morning tour...mainly because the guide was funnier which made the places more interesting. We missed going to Nijo Castle during the morning tour 'cos it was closed on Tuesdays which was a real shame. Would recommend this tour to our friends. The Kyoto Imperial Palace was a bit of a let down but not sure whether it is because of the guide or just the place.
The trip was quite rush, don't really have time for phototaking. The guide took time to explain every place we visited. Too bad we can't really hear her clearly as our group was rather big and her microphone was too soft and she walked really fast! We have to rush to catch up with her. ...but overall experience was good.... would still recommend the trip.
I was not aware that October 12 was a Japanese holiday thus, missed one item that I really wanted to see!
This was a good tour, although I was a little disappointed that we only went to shrines, castles, etcetera. The tour guide was a little hard to understand as there were so many other tours happening at the same time around us. I did feel a little rushed on the day, there was really no time to buy souvenirs at stops or to use toilets.
The best part of this day was the tour guide for the afternoon session. He was exceptional.
Very informative, lots of fun, great guides.
