    As expected, took us to all sights we were interested in. Bus stops were easy to find and frequency was good. The staff onboard were all very helpful.

    Since,I'm new visitor to Kyoto , I couldn't locate where in Kyoto Station your buses were located. On the brochure is should indicated 'Bus Terminal'. Lack of Signage can be confusing. This bus tour gave me insight of Kyoto. I stayed on the bus for East line than continue on with West Line. Lack of coordination on went the bus will stop to get off. There should be signal of the next Stop. So folks can get Off.

    So glad I booked this! Met some really coool people and learned a lot. The village on stilts is so unique. Pro tip: Don’t skip the little bakery by the bay, best melon bread I’ve ever had.

    Wasn’t sure what to expect but this tour was a GEM. My boyfriend and I went for our anniversary trip and the views from Amanohashidate were literally EPIC. Cable car ride was a bit nerve-wracking for me but totally worth it for the pictures (btw, can’t take pics inside some of the shrines, so heads up). Would recommend for couples or families.

    Went solo and made friends! Amy made sure no one felt left out. Weather was HOT so bring sunscreen. The wildlife preserve was my fave stop. Would do again.

    My husband and I celebrated our anniversary with this tour and it was such a treat. Frederick (our guide) surprised us with a little origami gift—so thoughtful. The bamboo grove at sunrise was MAGICAL, I almost cried. A day to remember.
