All Reviews for Private Charter Tours

It was a trip to Kyoto with my children and elderly parents.

As my parents are getting older, walking for long periods has become increasingly difficult, so we were anxious about moving around by bus or train. Therefore, we requested a six-hour sightseeing taxi with a free plan.

The person in charge on the day was a man named Kumagai. Since it was a free plan, we met at Kyoto Station and visited Fushimi Inari, Kiyomizu Temple, Yasaka Shrine, and Shimogamo Shrine, and were dropped off at Shijo Kawaramachi.

Kumagai was very kind and considerate, thinking of places for my tired parents to rest on the slopes of Kiyomizu Temple. When my children wanted to walk and explore, he took my parents in the car and did a city tour for about an hour, responding flexibly to our needs. My parents were very happy to be treated so kindly, especially since it was raining that day, making walking difficult.

It was tough to visit all the places my children wanted to go with my parents, but thanks to Kumagai's support, my children were able to visit the places they wanted, and we were very glad we requested the sightseeing taxi. Thank you very much!

Additionally, I received two confirmation calls before the day, and they provided suggestions considering the congestion in Kyoto, so the company was very polite and attentive. Overall, I was very satisfied!

子供と高齢の両親を連れての京都旅行でした。

両親も高齢になり、長時間歩くのが段々と厳しくなっている為、バスや電車での移動では不安もありこちらでフリープランの観光タクシーを６時間お願いしました。

当日担当してくれたのは熊谷さんという男性の方でした。フリープランだったので、京都駅で待ち合わせ、伏見稲荷から清水寺・八坂神社・下鴨神社などを回り、四条河原町で降ろしていただきました。
清水寺の坂道で疲れてしまった両親に、休憩できる場所を考えてくれたり、子どもが歩いて散策を希望した時は、両親を車に乗せて１時間ほど市内観光をしていてくれて、臨機応変に対応して下さりとても親切にしていただきました。
当日雨が降っていたので歩くのも大変だったこともあり、両親もとても親切にしてもらって良かったと喜んでいました。

両親を連れて子供の行きたかった場所を全て回るのは厳しかったので、熊谷さんの対応のおかげで行きたいところを回ることができた子供も喜んでいましたし、今回こちらで観光タクシーをお願いして良かったです。本当にありがとうございました！

また、当日までに確認のご連絡を２回いただき、京都の混雑状況なども踏まえた提案をしてくださったりと、会社の方もとても丁寧な対応をして下さいました。全体的にとても満足でした！

I brought along someone from abroad. I was very anxious since I didn't know much about Kyoto, but the person in charge was incredibly attentive and provided various ideas, which really helped me. It was so wonderful that I even asked for their assistance the next day. I will definitely recommend them to everyone when going to Kyoto. Thank you very much.

外国の方をお連れしました。
京都をよく知らないままでとても不安でしたが
担当の方がものすごく親身にいろいろアイデアを出してくださったりしたので
本当に助かりました。
あまりに素晴らしかったので次の日もお願いしたくらいです。
京都に行く際にはみなさんに紹介します。
ありがとうございました

It wasn't a veteran. There was no guidance, just a driver. It's disappointing. I do not recommend it. Poor cost performance.

ベテランの方ではなかった。
案内もなく、ただの運転手。
残念。
お勧めしません。
コスパ悪い。

I thought it would be impossible for an elderly couple to guide foreign visitors using public transportation in a limited time, so I found Veltra online. Additionally, I was able to request a driver who could speak English, which was an incredible service. As expected, we efficiently visited five locations in five hours, and as elderly individuals, we were able to enjoy sightseeing without getting tired. It was truly helpful. Thank you very much.

高齢の夫婦が外国の方を限られた時間で観光案内をする事は公共交通機関を利用しては無理だろうと考えた所、veltraの事をwebで見つけました。
　そして、ドライバーさんも英語を喋れる方を指定出来、願ってもないサービスでした。
　思っていた通り、5時間で5箇所を効率良く回って頂き、高齢者の私達も疲れもなく観光する事が出来ました。本当に助かりました。
　有難うございました。

In the midst of heavy traffic, local drivers took back roads smoothly. There were long lines for trains and buses. If you take the train or bus, it would be half the sightseeing experience.

I visited Kyoto with an American acquaintance. Since it can be tiring to interpret the whole time, I requested a driver who is fluent in English. We chose the places we wanted to visit and consulted with him, who provided advice on the order of our itinerary. Although it was a bit early, the cherry blossom season coincided with a significant return of tourists, resulting in a crowded Kyoto. Thanks to him, we were able to navigate efficiently and received thorough guidance. I also had an energetic elementary school boy with me, but he handled everything wonderfully, for which I am truly grateful.

The driving, the guiding in both Japanese and English, the photography, and the way he interacted with the children were all outstanding. Thank you, Hideyasu Kato! On the way back, we were able to see a four-leaf taxi. I look forward to using your services again, so please take care of us then.

　アメリカ人の知人を連れての京都でした。
ずっと通訳するには疲れるので、英語堪能なドライバーさんでお願いしました。
　自分たちで行きたいところをチョイスし相談して、回る順番などアドバイスしていただきました。観光客がだいぶ戻ってきているのと、少し早かったですが桜のシーズンが重なり、大混雑の京都でしたがおかげさまで効率的に周り、しっかり案内していただきました。元気すぎる小学生男子も連れていましたが、しっかり対応してくださり本当に感謝です。
　運転、日本語&英語でのガイド、カメラマン、子どもの扱い、全てにおいてすばらしかったです。
　加藤秀康さん、ありがとうございました！帰りに四つ葉のタクシーみることができましたよ、
またお願いしますのでそのときはよろしくお願い申し上げます。

5-Hour Free Plan - Serena (6-passenger)
Driver: Mr. Kumamoto

This trip was for my children's graduation trip and my father's 70th birthday celebration. At the time of booking, we had many desired locations and were exceeding the time limit, but the day before, I received a call offering an extension and they kindly accommodated changes to the pickup location.

We visited Arashiyama → Bamboo Grove → Kinkaku-ji → Seimei Shrine → Yasaka Shrine → Kiyomizu-dera.

We managed to visit all the places and extended our time by one hour.

We toured in that order, and the driver provided explanations at each location, took family photos for us, and guided us to great spots for photography and views that we wouldn't have noticed on our own, which was wonderful.

The driver was very kind, and the children were delighted, saying they had become friends!

Before booking, I was unsure whether to use a bus or rent a car, but in the end, I found the campaign from Koshin Taxi and I'm really glad I signed up. Thank you very much.

《5時間フリープラン》セレナ（6人乗り）
担当ドライバー：熊本さん

今回、子供たちの卒業旅行&父の古希のお祝いでの旅行でした。申し込みの時点で希望の場所が多くて時間を超えていましたが、前日にお電話いただき延長のご提案をいただいたり、送迎場所の変更に快く対応くださいました。

嵐山→竹林→金閣寺→晴明神社→八坂神社→清水寺

全て回っていただき1時間の延長をしました。

の順に観光し、各地での説明もしてくださったり
家族写真を撮っていただいたり、写真撮影に良い場所や、眺めの良い所など自分たちでは分からない、気づかない所を案内していただけたのも嬉しかったです。

とても優しいドライバーさんで、子供たちも、
仲良くなった！と喜んでいました。

申し込み前は、バス移動？レンタカー？と悩みましたが、結果興進タクシーさんのキャンペーンを見つけ、申し込んで本当に良かったです。
ありがとうございました。

I really appreciated the consideration given to efficiently visiting the places I wanted to go! The driver was very kind and attentive, and I am truly grateful for all the care taken. The guidance and explanations at the sightseeing spots deepened my understanding. I have no complaints at all. In fact, I feel humbled by the excellent service provided at this price. I will definitely use this service again when I visit Kyoto next time. I would like to request the same driver again. Not only the driver, but also the person who assisted me over the phone was very polite, which made me feel at ease.

希望の場所を効率よく回れるよう配慮してくださりとっても良かったです！担当ドライバーさんはとても優しく、色々気遣いもしていただき大変感謝しております。
見学場所でも案内、解説していただけたので理解が深まりました。何一つ不満はありません。
むしろこのお値段でここまでよくしていただいて恐縮です。次、京都に行く際も必ず利用します。
今回のドライバーさんにまたお願いしたいです。
ドライバーさんだけでなく、電話窓口で対応してくださった方も大変丁寧で、安心できました。

I have visited Kyoto many times, but this time I used the service because my Australian husband was with me. They answered all of his questions, and I learned a lot about the history and culture myself, which was truly wonderful. At first, I didn't expect to be guided like a tour guide during our sightseeing, but even though I had been there before, having a guide made it even more enjoyable. We were very well taken care of as a couple, and we are extremely satisfied. I definitely want to use the service again.

京都は何度も来たことがありますが、今回はオーストラリア人の夫も一緒なので利用させて頂きました。
夫のどんな質問も答えて頂き、歴史や文化、私自身もすごく勉強になり本当に良かったです。
最初、観光中もツアーガイドのように案内して貰えると思ってなかったのですが、今まで行ったことあってもガイドがつくと、より一層楽しく感じました。
夫婦でお世話になり、大満足です。
また是非、利用したいです。

Since it was a whirlwind trip for one night and two days, I requested a charter taxi to get around efficiently! It was a great decision☆ I thought the driver would just take me to places and wait, but he actually accompanied me and provided guidance at each stop. I learned a lot of things I didn't know and was able to experience sightseeing from a different perspective. I wanted to visit all the places on my list, so I added two hours on the day of the trip, and they were very accommodating. It might depend on the driver, but I'm really glad I used this service, and I am filled with gratitude towards the driver. It turned out to be a wonderful trip. I definitely want to request this again.

１泊２日の弾丸旅行だったので、効率よく回りたくて貸切タクシーをお願いしました！
大正解でした☆
運転手さんは連れてってくれて待ってるだけかと思ったら、一緒に来てくださって、１つ１つガイドもしてくださりました。知らないことをたくさん知れて、違う目線から観光ができました。
回りたいところを全部回りたかったので、当日2 時間追加しましたが、快く対応してくださいました。
運転手さんによるのかもしれませんが、利用してよかった、と運転手さんには感謝の気持ちでいっぱいです。
素晴らしい旅行になりました。
是非またお願いしたいと思います。

The taxi driver was fluent in English and guided us through the famous sights of Kyoto. My foreign partner said they enjoyed learning various things about Kyoto thanks to the detailed explanations. We were also taken to a recommended delicious tonkatsu restaurant, so thank you very much!

英語堪能なタクシードライバーさんで京都の名所を案内してくれました。外国人のパートナーも丁寧な説明で京都を色々知れて楽しかったと言っていました。おすすめの美味しいとんかつ屋も案内して頂き、本当にありがとうございました！

The school trip that my son couldn't attend was luxuriously realized. At each location, the explanations were clear and easy to understand. The bus stop at the end of the year had a long line, but taking a taxi next to it allowed us to get to our desired destinations without waiting, which was the best time saver. We were able to visit all the places we hoped for, which was greatly appreciated by our family with children. Thank you, Okuda, for your help this time. Thank you for the memories! (^o^)

The streets of Kyoto during the New Year period were more crowded than I had imagined, especially with small shrines and temples bustling with visitors for the first shrine visit of the year. Consequently, the transportation network was congested as well. In some areas, cars were hardly moving, but thanks to the chartered sightseeing taxi, my requested tour of shrines and temples went smoothly and comfortably. The driver's good judgment ensured that the order of our visits was appropriate, and my wishes were fulfilled within the planned time, which made me very satisfied. Given that I have some difficulty walking, I was truly grateful for the minimal walking involved. I definitely want to use this service again on my next visit.

年末年始の京都の街は想像以上の混雑で、特にこの時期は小さな神社・仏閣も初詣で混雑。それに伴い交通網も混雑。場所によっては殆ど車が動かない状態でしたが、貸し切り観光タクシーのお蔭で、当方がお願いした神社・仏閣巡りがスムーズ且つ楽に出来ました。ドライバーさんの好判断で、巡る順番も適切で予定の時間内で希望が叶い、満足です。特に若干足が悪い事もあり、徒歩も極力少なくして頂き合わせて本当に助かりました。次の機会もぜひ利用したいと思います。

This time, I booked a private taxi tour for the first time with three foreigners I brought from Canada. I chose a six-hour course, but it was just enough time to visit four to five famous spots in Kyoto. If I were to make a reservation next time, I feel that around eight hours would be recommended, considering the lunch time as well.

As for the driver, he had studied English well and provided thoughtful explanations at key tourist spots, as well as engaging small talk during the drive, which was considerate for the foreigners. The three foreigners were satisfied after the tour.

I also appreciate how he helped with taking photos at various scenic spots. This was my first time booking with Yasaka, and I could feel the high level of training among the staff. The six-hour duration allowed us to enjoy the tour comfortably and safely, which was the best part. I would definitely like to request this again next time.

今回は、カナダから連れてきた外国人３名と共に、初めての貸切タクシーツアーを申し込みました。
６時間というコースを選択したのですが、京都の名所を４－５ヶ所周るには、ギリギリ時間でした。次回予約するのであれば、昼食時間もありますので、８時間ぐらいがお勧めかと感じました。
運転手さんですが、しっかり英語を勉強されており、要所要所の観光名所での気の利いた説明及び移動中の雑談も、外国人が受け入れる話し方に気を使われ、しっかり対応頂き、ツアー後の外国人３名も満足しておりました。
また名所の周る度に、写真スポットでの撮影手伝いもサラって対応いただき感謝しております。今回初めてヤサカに申し込みを致しましたが、
社員の方への教育の高さも感じられ、６時間という時間が、楽しく・安心してツアーができたことが何より良かった点であります。
次回もぜひお願いしたいです。

I made a reservation for a foreign family. They had a wonderful half-day tour of beautiful Kyoto, and the driver spoke English, so they felt safe and had a great time. I'm really glad they made good memories! Thank you!

外国人家族のために予約しました。半日ですごく綺麗な京都を案内してくれ、英語も話せるドライバーの方だったので安心して楽しく過ごせたそうです。良い思い出ができて本当によかったです！ありがとうございました！

I think Kyoto can be easily explored by bus and train, but since I had to guide my elderly mother and aunt, I used a sightseeing taxi for the first time. Without worrying about schedules or routes, we could request the places we wanted to visit and learned about various histories and stories. The photos taken by the driver turned out to be the most wonderful, creating lovely memories. I highly recommend this service to everyone.

京都はバスや電車で不自由無く回れると思いますが、高齢の母と叔母を案内する事となり初めて観光タクシーを利用しました。時刻やルートに悩まされず、行きたい場所をリクエストでき、様々な歴史や謂れを教えてもらいました。ドライバーさんに撮って頂いた写真が一番素敵で、素敵な思い出ができました。皆さんにも是非検討して欲しいサービスです。

We had the best time with Taka San - we felt like we were great friends by the end of our day in Kyoto. He immersed us in Japanese customs and traditions and thoroughly explained the nuances of each temple and shrine. His local knowledge made our experience in Kyoto better than we could have ever imagined. He even found us a great ramen spot for lunch - he even pushed my grandma in a wheelchair up a steep slope so she could see the beautiful temple. He is truly one of a kind - and we will call him every time we visit Kyoto and the surrounding area. Thank you, Taka San, for an unforgettable experience. The driving tour and his knowledge were so amazing! Having him drive us around and explain everything in such detail was such a special experience! Could not recommend him more!!

I was taken on a tour of Fushimi Inari and Kiyomizu-dera for three hours starting at 6:30 AM. A few days prior, I received contact to confirm the details, and despite it being early in the morning, they kindly accommodated me without any additional charges. They guided us slowly to accommodate my mother, who has difficulty walking, and the stories along the way were very interesting! My whole family truly enjoyed it and we are all grateful to Mr. Kumagai. Thank you very much.

朝6時半から3時間で伏見稲荷と清水寺の観光に連れていってもらいました。
数日と前日に連絡を頂き詳細を確認しあえたり、
早朝にもかかわらず割り増し料金なしで快く対応して頂きました。
足の悪い母に合わせてゆっくりとガイドしてくださり、途中のお話もとてもおもしろかったです！
家族皆、本当に楽しかった、熊谷さんのおかげだと話しております。
ありがとうございました。

Since it was during Golden Week, I thought transportation would be crowded, and moving around by ourselves would be tiring, so I decided to book this tour. Also, group tours can be inflexible, so I opted for a private tour. It turned out to be the right choice!

Just the two of us traveled in a van. Our driver took us around to various places in the heat and even took photos for us while explaining historical facts. Moreover, he even gave us some snacks as souvenirs, and I am truly grateful for this wonderful experience. If I have the chance to visit Kyoto again, I would definitely like to request this tour!

I did feel a bit regretful that we had a little extra time at the end, but overall, it was a great experience.

GW中ということもあり、交通機関も混雑してるだろうし、自分たちで移動するのも疲れるだろうとこちらのツアーを予約させて頂きました。
また団体ツアーだと融通がきかないのでプライベートツアーにしました。
結果正解でした！
夫婦2人でワンボックス移動。
運転手さんは暑い中、私たちと一緒に各所巡って下さいました。
写真を撮ってくれたり、歴史的なことから色々と説明してくれました。
しかもお菓子のお土産まで持たせて下さり、いい出会いだったなと心から感謝です。
また京都へ行くことがあれば、是非お願いしたいと思いました！
最後ちょっと時間が余っちゃってもったいなかったかな？と少しだけ心残りですが、結果オーライです。

I have traveled to Kyoto many times by car, but this time I used a taxi since it was New Year's Day. Buses are usually crowded, so having a car is convenient, but it often takes time to find parking or to get to the destination if it's far away. With a taxi, you can go right to the entrance of your destination, and they pick you up from the nearest spot on the way back.

I wasn't able to decide on a destination until the last minute, but they kept in touch and listened to my requests, suggesting a great place to go. On the day of the trip, they even accommodated an unplanned lunch, allowing us to enjoy a meal without having to search around.

Thanks to the driver, who was well-versed in Kyoto, we were able to tour smoothly and efficiently. On the day of travel, we drove to the city, and before we left, they informed us about the road conditions. I was worried about the snow, but I was able to enter Kyoto via the highway with peace of mind.

We were a group of four, and I considered upgrading to a larger vehicle for an additional fee, but it turned out to be unnecessary as the car was spacious and comfortable enough. I highly recommend this taxi company. Thank you for your service; I would definitely like to use it again.

京都へは何度も自家用車で行っていますが今回は元旦ということでタクシーを利用しました。
バスは毎回混んでいるので車は便利なのですが、駐車場を探したり、目的地まで距離があったり時間を取られることも多いです。
タクシーですと目的地の入口まで行けて帰りは最短の場所に迎えに来てくれます。
ギリギリまで目的地が決まらなかったのですが、まめに連絡をいただき要望を聞いてくださり目的地をご提案くださいました。
当日も予定になかったランチにもご対応くださり、自分たちで探し回ることなくランチにありつけました。

京都に精通しているドライバーさんのお陰でスムーズに無駄なく観光できました。
また当日も京都市内までは車で行ったのですが、出発前に道路状況の連絡をいただき雪が心配でしたが安心して高速で京都入りする事ができました。
また4人で利用でしたので追加料金で大きい車に変更しようかと迷ったのですがその必要はやく充分快適でした。
とてもおすすめのタクシー会社さんです。
お世話になりました。ぜひまた利用したいです。

I used a charter taxi for the first time, and it was very comfortable, creating great memories.
The destination we wanted was crowded, but we were dropped off at the entrance, and the driver took care of finding parking, which made everything very smooth.
They also provided services beyond transportation, such as guiding us around the park, taking commemorative photos, and carrying a few bags.
Even though we added a destination on the day of the trip, they responded quickly.
The driver was very polite and helpful, even assisting us with suggestions for lunch spots.
Thank you for a comfortable journey.

初めて貸切タクシーを利用しました。とても快適で、良い思い出になりました。
私たちの希望した行き先は混雑していましたが、入り口で降ろしていただき駐車場探しは運転手さんがして下さるので、とてもスムーズでした。
園内の案内や記念撮影、ちょっとした荷物を持つなど、搬送以外のサービスもしてくださいました。
当日になって行き先を追加したにも関わらず、迅速に対応していただきました。
昼食をとる場所などの相談にも乗っていただき、とても丁寧で感じの良い運転手さんでした。
快適な旅をありがとうございました。

So easy to book and the experience was fantastic.

Ichiro, our guide cum driver was perfect! He speaks fluent English , very knowledgeable , friendly & very obliging to our needs. He even brought us to a very interesting local place for lunch. Our 6 hour private tour was indeed very enjoyable.

Our driver was very courteous and accommodating. We originally started with a 4 hour tour but gradually extended to 6 hours. We covered all that we wanted to : Fushimi Inari shrine, Nijo castle, bamboo grove, and a couple of others. He walked along with us and took great photos of us. He explained the history and significance of all the sites. We had a great time. The colors of Red and yellow of the leaves was also picturesque. Would not hesitate to strongly recommend veltra tours. Keep up the good work!

We booked an 8h tour for the 16. November and were very happy with it.

Thanks to the car, we could explore much more sites than otherwise possible when using public transportation or walking. Our guide was very knowledgeable and adjusted the tour to our preferences. We recommend!

Due to physical limitations, my parents can no longer walk far without balance or pain problems, so we needed personal transportation to take us around at our own pace. Based on a very sour experience in Tokyo in all aspects of customer service & complete disrespect/unprofessionalism/lack of manners+courtesy w/respect to accessible needs (yes, I was taken aback but city freneticism & savageness has taken over the city & it's not good!), we had zero expectations when we arrived in Kyoto.
BUT....what we got was a complete 5 star experience from Yuka. Not only did she communicate in perfect English (no where to be found in our "top" hotels in Tokyo that cost an arm+leg), she planned the trip around all my parents' needs with much care & thoughtfulness, went above & beyond her duty to help w/pushing the wheelchair & always attentive to shield my parents' from the pouring rain with her umbrella, staying a bit over allotted time to allow my parents to slowly finish their meals w/o rush, all the time being the most pleasant & entertaining host & safe driver! Mind you, she is not certified as a tour guide (she has the driver's license) and yet she puts both of the other licensed Tokyo tour guides to shame. She single-handedly salvaged this 9-day trip from being a complete rotten disaster! She was so amazing that my dad considered adopting her on the spot! Anyway, thank you Yuka - you have no idea what good you have done. I wish you only the best returns & if we ever come back, we will request you & only you! Please take care of yourself until then <3

I was picked up at Kyoto Station and requested a tour of Nara. They made it a flexible and free travel experience. Additionally, the driver-guide speaks English, so I always ask for them when I have foreign customers.

京都駅でピックアップしていただき、奈良観光をお願いしました。
臨機応変に自由な旅を叶えてくれます。またドライバーガイドの方も英語がはなせるので、外国人のお客様の際はいつもお願いしています。

The driver was very kind, friendly, knowledgeable and spoke perfect English. Surprisingly he also spoke Spanish as well, which was a fun surprise for the parents, as the driver was happy to practice his Spanish. He was able to drive us to some nice places, as we even got to eat at a nice restaurant over the river that we wanted to enjoy. The van was very spacious, clean and comfortable as well.

We had an exelent tour good driver, did sprak Bert well english. Knew evwrytibg we did Visit and brought us also to placets with no tourist . We were Bert impressed and would recoment this tour.

The trip was with my Adult daughter From start to finish our driver and the experience was delightful - getting picked up in the Toyota Century was simply classic old school and made us feel Presidential. Our driver had the right blend of very respectful Japanese manners coupled with a delightful and cheeky sarcasm ( which suited us because it was how we are ).

He walked with us through each of the venues to make sure the experience was far more in depth than simply driving us to each site. The genuineness of the experience was very special and I will definitely be bringing my wife to Kyoto so I can take her on the same journey.

It's absolutely worth it on so many levels.
