Kyoto Tour to Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari, Kiyomizudera, Kinkakuji & Sanjusangendo

Excellent tour, great tour guide"Jun"

Reviewed by: Alena Hughes

It was a full day tour with loads of walking.
Organisation was superb, the tour guide knowledgeable, friendly and accommodating.
This is an excellent tour which manages to show us a great deal of important sites which would be hard to achieve in one day by other operators.
I was extremely satisfied at the end of the day.

Simply Wonderful

Reviewed by: Rob Gordon

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.

Good itinerary

Reviewed by: Cat

This is a good tour to see the highlights of Kyoto. The driver and tour guide Jun is extremely competent. My only complaint is that the tour feels rushed at each sites. However due to the number of tourists at each locations and in order to cover all the highlights, it is unavoidable to feel rushed.

Great day out with the family in Kyoto!

Reviewed by: Huyen

My family and I visited Kyoto on April 12th, and could not be any happier with our tour. A big thanks to our friendly driver and tour guide Ichiro who made the extra effort to give us some history of the sights we visited throughout the day. Ichiro made sure we were able to visit what we had planned for the day, and he didn’t worry about the time too much when I was worried myself that our 8hour time was nearly over!
Kyoto is a beautiful place, I would go back time and time again to explore and use this service.

We had Kam take us around the sites of Kyoto for 6 hours. His english was excellent and his vehicle was immaculate.

Kam didn't just drive us to the sites, he went the extra mile and played tour guide at each stop and explained the historical sites and walked us around.

We had a fantastic day and highly recommend Kam and his service in Kyoto.

6-seater SUV with English speaking driver

Reviewed by: Chinita Hard

Our driver was efficient, kind, professional, personable and very helpful. After hearing where we wanted to visit, he made recommendations about the order and timing of our day. We also needed to find a birthday cake and buy shinkansen tickets and he called a bakery and waited outside the station while we went to the ticket counter. The car was clean and comfortable. In addition, he selected exactly what we requested for a lunch stop: fast, local, easy to seat 14 people and good food.

We also hired a 9-seater Hi-ace van as we were a large group of 14. He worked well with the other driver and took turns explaining things as we were on site at shrines, temples and gardens.

It was a perfect day with the car and driver!

Reviewed by: コチコチ

This was my first time using the service of a taxi driver who could speak English. I was attending a foreign visitor who was visiting Kyoto for the first time, so we went to well-known tourist spots, but I was truly moved by the guide talk about places I had never known before and the background of each location. I was impressed by what a professional guide is like, and I am grateful to the taxi driver who provided such a thoughtful and warm guide. I definitely want to use this service again when I visit Kyoto next time.

今回初めて、英語が話せるタクシードライバーさんのサービスを利用しました。京都には初めて訪れた外国人をアテンドしていたので、誰でも知っているような場所への観光でしたが、自分も全く知らなった見所や、各場所の背景などのガイドトークが本当に感動的でした。

次に京都にを訪れるときにも、ぜひこのサービスを利用したいと思います。

Sho-ji our driver/guide was so nice and flexible, he even took us to go fishing and helped keep an eye on our children. Travelling with young kids, this tour suited us as we didn’t want to feel rushed or pressured if we joined a bus tour. We got to see numerous places and thoroughly enjoyed our time around Kyoto with Sho-Ji.

One day Tour of Kyoto for the busy traveller

Reviewed by: Dr George Ryland

We took a one day tour with Veltra on Saturday 25 August. The tour commenced on time at Jolly's Coffee Shop opposite the Shin Kyoto Station. The tour gave us a comprehensive overview of the temples, shrines and gardens in Kyoto. There is a fair amount of walking to visit each site and this coupled with mid 30's temperatures was indeed a challenge for us in our mid 70's. Nevertheless the guide did point out shortcuts for us and still see the important sites. Lunch on this day was similar to a shabu shabu event with chicken & vegetable cooked at the table individually. It would have been even better in cooler weather. We found the tour ideal for the one day traveller to at least gain an overview of the beautiful historic sites of Kyoto.

It was a wonderful experience. Mr. Shoji, our driver and guide, was knowledgeable and top notch. He was a wonderful company, professional and a delight. At the start, he had a tour plan waiting for as well as consulting our group if there were other things we wanted to see or do. We managed to see what we wanted to see and then some more. There were slight hiccups as some of the sights closed due to the holidays but he manage to find good alternatives. All in all a very good and well planned experience.

We had the pleasure of doing an 8 Hr tour with the driver Hiroshi Yano. He was extremely knowledgeable of details and history, which kept it very interesting. His car was very clean and comfortable and he also had a great sense of humor. He spoke English very well. He was also accommodating to change the original itinerary based on our needs since we had since some of the sites the day before. I for sure would highly recommend him and this tour agency which was also very accommodating in returning several email questions prior to our booking.
