Guest User2026-10-15
Thank you to the shop for their attentive and friendly service, and to the photographer for their professional assistance, which allowed us to take beautiful photos. From choosing and wearing the kimono to the photographer's excellent attitude and thoughtfulness, it was a highly recommended and unforgettable experience!

Great day, it’s a pity about the weather that we missed the boat ride. I loved exploring the local area. Hua hua, our guide, was great.

Reviews: 1-day tour featuring Kyoto's Arashiyama scenic train and Hozugawa river cruise rafting, available from Kyoto or Osaka
Guest User2026-10-25
Despite the long journey, the driver drove very steadily, and the tour guide, Xiao Fu, served the group members with utmost care. The two-hour cruise on the Hozu River was propelled forward by three crew members rowing with both hands. Along the way, we enjoyed the beautiful scenery along the riverbank and the thrill of rushing down the rapids. It was a highly recommended trip that left a lasting impression!

Reviews: 1-day tour to Kyoto, Nara and Uji | Nara Park, Byodoin Temple, Fushimi Inari and Tōdai-ji
Guest User2026-08-31
It was rare to find a tour departing from Kyoto that also included Uji and Nara, saving me the hassle of finding my own way around, and the price was very reasonable! They even run during the off-season, so there were fewer people, and some of the tour members spoke English. But our guide, Cali, took excellent care of everyone, explaining things to the Chinese-speaking members once and then to the English-speaking members, basically providing introductions throughout the entire trip. She answered random questions from passengers fluently in both Chinese and English (I initially thought she spoke ABCs, then JBCs, but it turned out she spoke all the languages ​​she had learned…). When I had a minor health issue at one point, Cali responded promptly and helped me out – so heartwarming! The driver had a great smile and proactively helped me with my luggage.

Reviews: Kyoto Challenge a Sumo Wrestler! Show & Interactive Experience
Guest User2026-10-19
We really enjoyed it: the organizers were friendly, the snacks were delicious. The sumo wrestlers were incredibly charismatic. It included a lecture, a demonstration match, and an opportunity to try your hand at wrestling. Everything was done with humor, more like a vibrant show than a boring lecture. The presenter spoke excellent English. Translations were also included for ease of understanding.

Reviews: 1-day tour to Kyoto, Arashiyama & Nara - bamboo forest path + Togetsukyō Bridge + Fushimi Inari + Nara Park
Guest User2026-10-04
I love this tour of the many cities compacted into 1 day. It was perfect for our family of 5. Our tour guide Valerie, was very knowledgeable about the areas and history of the locations we visited. She also had handy links for places to eat and visited after our trip. We were especially impressed with her helping us with the kimono rental on our tour. She helped us with our kimono outfits and took lovely family photos. She always kept us informed along the trip, so we never got lost. We wished there was more time to explore however we know where to go when we come back to Japan again.
