Reviews: [Cherry Blossom Season] One-Day Tour of Ancient Temples in Kyoto, Japan + Nara Park with Adorable Deer + Fushimi Inari Shrine
Guest User2026-03-28
I signed up for a tour because I wanted to go on a day trip to Kyoto and Nara with my mom! Our guide, Kim Mi-hyang, was with us, and it was wonderful! I definitely want to recommend her haha. She shared lots of interesting facts and was very kind! She also recommended several great restaurants, which was the best haha. Both my mom and I were extremely satisfied!

A big thumbs up to Uncle Big Head on WeChat on February 24th! He provided clear information, location, and photos in advance, and was very enthusiastic and meticulous in replying to questions and offering helpful reminders. His driving was very smooth and safe, and the itinerary and arrangement of the three attractions were well-planned. His descriptions of the attractions and restaurants were concise. All three attractions are traditional and representative, rich in local culture and history. Uncle Big Head deserves high praise for his itinerary planning.

The trip to Kyoto was amazing! The Daruma dolls covering the mountain at Katsuo-ji Temple were so cute, the stroll through Arashiyama was incredibly romantic, and the shimmering gold of Kinkaku-ji Temple was breathtaking! The itinerary was perfectly planned, and we had a fantastic time. Our tour guide was also fantastic—professional, funny, and with engaging explanations. She was also incredibly thoughtful and attentive to everyone. I have to give a thumbs up to the tour guide and the itinerary!

Jack, the tourist guide was nice and friendly. He speaks well English and accompanied us through the trip. Basically he made a short introduction of the different places and let us enjoy independently. So if you're in Osaka and still want to visit shortly Kyoto and Nara in one day that's the perfect deal.

Yesterday, I traveled around downtown Osaka by train using the Osaka Amazing Pass. However, since I don't know Japanese, it was more difficult than I expected. Today, thanks to the bus tour, I was able to comfortably tour Kyoto and Nara, listening to and seeing historical details along the way, and I truly enjoyed it. I am taking away a fulfilling day thanks to the passionate guidance of our tour guide, Mika Kim.

I felt this was a truly heartwarming trip to Kyoto! From the magnificent golden splendor of Kinkaku-ji to the thousand torii gates of Fushimi Inari Shrine, every stop was breathtaking and thought-provoking. The tour guide was knowledgeable, articulate, and incredibly attentive, patiently answering all our questions.
