Reviews: [Small Group of 9] Kyoto Kifune Shrine + Arashiyama + Sanzenin Temple Day Trip
Guest User2026-07-18
The driver was so kind and helpful! We overslept, and he waited for us for a long time, picking us up directly from Osaka Station. The itinerary was great, though it would have been even better if we had more time to explore each place. Arashiyama was so beautiful, and it was a bit of a shame we didn't have enough time to ride the little train. We'll definitely go again next time.

Reviews: Kyoto, Japan: Kifune Shrine + Arashiyama + Bamboo Grove Day Trip [Small Group of 9]
Guest User2026-09-30
Today's tour was a great success. Our guide, Yasuo, arrived early at the Kyoto meeting point to wait for us. His time management and explanations of the sights were excellent throughout the tour; he was clearly an experienced and helpful guide. We visited Sanzen-in Temple, Kifune Shrine, and Arashiyama. These are places that are very difficult to visit in one day without a tour, as they are quite far apart. Thankfully, we chose a group tour today, which allowed us to see them all. Overall, today's choice was perfect!

A wonderful day trip in mid-September. The itinerary was well-organized. We had enough free time to explore and take photos. The vehicle was clean and comfortable.

Reviews: [Kyoto autumn leaves season] Kyoto 1-day tour Sanzen-in + Kifune Shrine + Arashiyama · bookable Sagano Romantic Train
Guest User2026-11-06
The driver was punctual and very friendly, and was happy to explain the itinerary to everyone. Overall, there was enough time allotted for the trip. However, if you're taking the Sagano Scenic Railway, you should consider the time allotted for Tenryu-ji Temple and other smaller attractions. You'll generally have about an hour left to explore the shopping street and other sights.

Reviews: From Kyoto/Osaka: Zen Temples & Kifune Shrine Small-Group Cultural Experience Day Tour
Guest User2026-08-27
The tour is very friendly to travelers who walk 20,000 steps a day or more, but it's too packed and rushed for those who want to explore a place in depth. Nanzen-ji Temple, Sanzen-in Temple, and Kifune Shrine are all places worth spending half a day to appreciate. This time, I joined a tour to familiarize myself with the route, and I definitely want to come back on my own next time. We arrived in Kifune at 1:40 pm. Since this was our last stop, we decided to leave the tour with the friends we met along the way and have a more in-depth, leisurely tour. We experienced the riverbed, tried the Okumiya matcha tea, took the tram and then the subway, and enjoyed many other pleasant experiences along the Kamo River.
