Reviews: Kyoto Kifune Shrine, Arashiyama, and Sanzen-in Temples: A 9-person Small Group Tour to Enjoy the Cool Summer and Autumn Leaves
Guest User2025-10-19
We signed up the afternoon of the previous day. The tour fee was over 300 yuan for a small group of nine people, which I found to be a great value. The itinerary was well-paced and not rushed.
Our driver and guide, Nick Lee, was very approachable and attentive. The car was clean and odorless. Disposing of trash in Japan is a challenge, so we had trash bags on board. It rained that day, so we had transparent umbrellas, which made for beautiful photos. The guides were provided on board, in both Mandarin and English, catering to the needs of the group. At each attraction, Nick would send us a private message with the location and time.
Sanzen-in Temple was a pleasant surprise during the trip. It was peaceful and relaxing, and I loved it. The water divination at Kifune Shrine was very interesting, and I got a very auspicious fortune. Overall, I was very satisfied.★

Had a wonderful trip with Amy today! She was more than a guide she not only shared interesting stories and profound travel tips, she also recommended great food and even served as our private photographer on the bus. Her energy and professionalism made the experience even more special. I highly recommend my friends to come and play with her trip too!★

Reviews: Kyoto Kifune Shrine + Sanzen-in Temple Day Trip [Small Group of 9 + Optional Guided Tour]
Guest User2025-11-19
This tour, booked through Ctrip, was definitely the most enjoyable part of the entire trip! I never expected to have such a comfortable private car experience in Japan! The tour guide was incredibly helpful, picking us up from the hotel and providing detailed explanations of each attraction. This is something I could never experience on my own, and it gave me a much deeper understanding of Kyoto's customs and culture. I'd definitely book this tour again next time. The service was excellent, and I had a wonderful time!★

Reviews: Kyoto Arashiyama 1-day Tour [Sagano Scenic Railway, Bamboo Forest Path, Tenryu-ji Temple] Visit Hidden Gems
Guest User2025-07-03
The trip to Lushan + Sanqianyuan booked this time was great. Traveling with a baby, there was almost 37 degrees of high temperature that day, and at least 3-4 degrees was lower in the Sanqianyuan. The three thousand yards were full of green eyes, and many people were posing there. There are many more people in Lushan than 3,000 courtyards. It is recommended to have lunch here. Many restaurants only accept cash. Remember to bring cash. Children with children are best to book the tickets for Lushan trains in advance. The customer service of the root travel agency asks what time it is more convenient to book. The small train travel time is 1 hour. We also saw someone drifting from the small train, but there is no time. Come next time. The tour guide Liu Ling wants to say in particular, the car is very enthusiastic to explain to everyone, before the train time, he also took everyone to the station, the small train came back and presented the children Lushan small refrigerator stickers.
