It was such a beautiful experience with Yang as the tour guide. His English was very easy to understand and that’s big plus in Japan. He explained everything in detail and guided us to each place. He also took pictures for us whenever we asked for it and was not rushed at all. The driver of the bus was also very good. Overall, a very good experience and will definitely recommend it.
This day trip with MoMo was very fun especially how she interacted with everyone including the children. She explained everything carefully such that everyone could understand and even added jokes to hyphenate the mood. It was overall a fulfilling experience.
Great experience and easy to meet up with the tour guide.
Oke untuk keseluruhan sangat baguss
It was a nice experience to tour the key places in Nara and Kyoto via this tour. The timings were sufficient and there was some introduction to the places as well. Only thing was the time in Arashiyama forest was short so we could not try out the kimono shot.
Locations were great and I decided on a day tour to minimise all the fuss with travelling especially with a senior. Comfortable coach that picks you from a centrally located Train Station and drop U back in the city center once done. Time allocated for each destination were about enough however your group was large. Tour bus was full. Thus our guide Jack was not exactly focus. Aside to introduction of the place prior to getting off the bus, we almost left the 1st stop without 2 guests despite the tour group informing him. He had the impression they probably changed seats and even check his guest list but asked the driver to proceed to leave. It was only on insistence did he realise indeed 2 guests missing as they were late. When we arrive at the temple, carpark was quite a distance away. Jack did not check that everyone was keeping pace, eventually me and my mum had to figure out and just follow the general crowd direction to guess our way to the destination
