The weather was favorable, making for a fun boat ride. The skills of the boatman were impressive, and he spoke cheerfully and casually, steering the boat according to my friend's wishes. It was enjoyable when the snack boat approached with its delicious smells. Unfortunately, I wanted to buy some mitarashi dango, but I couldn't since we had lunch plans right after... what a shame.
気候にも助けられて楽しい舟遊びとなりました。船頭の方の技術も確か

This was my first time booking with Beltora, and I received a courteous email just before my trip. The weather was clear on the day of the experience. Surrounded by the peak of autumn leaves, my friends and I were moved by the kind and gentle demeanor of the boatman, allowing us to enjoy a very elegant and happy escape from our daily lives. Thank you very much!

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!!

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.

Since it was still early in the season and there were no autumn leaves yet, we were able to enjoy a nearly private experience on the houseboat on the river! Despite the early morning, a water convenience store came by, and since we hadn't prepared any food, we were able to enjoy a moment of luxury. The person who rowed the boat was also entertaining, and it felt like they were talking the whole time. It was an experience I would recommend to my friends.

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。

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。

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

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.

We were meet exactly on time which is no surprise in Japan but it is very appreciated. The car was very comfartable with a nice a/c. The guide explained in perfect English the program. He took us to different temples and explained about the temple history and also about Japanese cultur. He was also ver knowledgable about todays Japan which was appreciated by us. He was very sensitive to our demands and changed program according to them.

Mr. Ichiro was calm throughout, which made me feel at ease while being together. The English explanations at each point were very helpful. Thanks to that, I had a great time.
一郎さんは、終始落ち着いた方で安心してご一緒できました。ポイント毎の英語の説明がとても助かりました。お蔭様で楽しく過ごせました。
