We really enjoyed our Sunshine Tour of Kyoto. The shrines were just breathtaking and the shopping along the streets of Kyoto was first rate.
Our guide, Yumi, was very informative and we loved her insight into the great history of the region.
We highly recommend this tour for anyone looking to enjoy the rich history of Kyoto in a relaxed and casual fashion.

The tour takes the tourist to great places (not to be missed) around Kyoto, and the overall experience was good.
Personnel was courteous. The included lunch (Japanese) was a very nice experience with typical Japanese food to enjoy.
However, we felt as though we had to enjoy the sites on our own, which is okay, since having some free time to wander around the site is necessary; but the balance with information about the site (and history) and free time was not as we would expect, hence it did feel superficial, and the tour seemed more like being taken to the great places of Kyoto rather than being guided.

We had very good time visiting three gorgeous and cultural places on this tip.
We were traveling with two children (7 &9) and elderly. The tour bus was clean and spacious even the tour was full. The tour guides were very friendly and helpful especially they were happy helping us taking group photos.
The first stop was Amanohashidate. The view was breathtaking once we got on the top of hill via monorail. Our tour guide showed us traditional way of looking at the strip of islands, bending forward and look between two legs. Apparently by looking at the island this way, it will look like a dragon flying into the sky. My son said he could see it but I will leave this for you to try it yourself.
After the first stop we had lunch included in the
tour. We had lots of yummy sashimi and sushi. It you don’t like raw seafood, they also provided cooked seafood, grill plate and hotpot to cook seafood yourself.
After lunch we took a boat ride to see the traditional fishing village, the most interesting thing was that there were lots sea hawks flying around waiting for you to feed. You can buy shrimp crackers for 100 yen. One tip, don’t put the crackers in your hand. They are hawks with sharp claws.
The last stop was to visit a traditional village. Their houses are built with straws and mud bricks.

Our family really enjoyed the tour. The tour guide gave us clear instructions and explained every location we went. After the tour the tour guide even asked every single one of us if we got any questions. Its worth every yen. We will definitely recommend this tour to anyone planning to go to Kyoto who doesn’t have to worry about which train/bus to take. The bus was really comfortable that you can sleep or rest when you are going to the next attraction.
Thank you for joining tour and review.
We are happy to hear that.
We hope you have a lot of memories.

I really enjoyed this tour. The walk from ferry to the shrine on Miyojima was totally manageable, even in the extreme heat. The food, snacks and shopping nearby was really great too. After we visited the bomb memorial and museum. This was really interesting and emotional, but I enjoyed learning about it. Again the walking was minimal. Our tour guide was such a sweet-heart too! She was a Hiroshima native, and was born just after the bombing so it effect her loves ones first hand, which resulted in some interesting stories and perspective. I would recommend this tour.

The tour started right on time. The driver was at our doorstep 20 minutes before it started. The driver was very safety conscious - making sure we fastened our seatbelts and drove the vehicle carefully within the speed limit. She was pleasant and accomodating our questions well.
She also managed the time well so that we could finish visiting all the places that were planned.
Well organised tour.
Thank you very much for this one day sightseeing in Kyoto. It is an honor to evaluate the content as 5 stars. Please also use it when you come to Japan.

The tour was well worth the money paid for. We had more than 3 guides who took care of us in each destination explaining every detail and even accompanied us on our way back to the Osaka Namba Station from Nara. They gave us maps and instructions to guide us back to our hotel. They were very helpful and concerned. I believe it would be hard for tourists to go on their own to the destinations of this tour specifically the Nijo Castle and the Kyoto Imperial Palace because you have to secure a permit before you can enter. With this tour, all are taken cared of. We had a big group so a big bus took us from the meeting point to Kyoto. Unfortunately, there were some in our group who were always late. The guide was very polite but firmly reminded all of us to be at meeting point on time otherwise they will be left behind (which I appreciate otherwise we will have less time in all the other destinations). The Todaiji temple was just majestic. Looking at the pictures now, it really is more beautiful to see it real. We had more than enough time to enjoy Nara, feed the deers and just relax in the park. I would definitely recommend this tour.

I salute tour guide CHIEKO ISHII of Sunrise Tour, in charge of Nara tour. She speaks English very well, She is very energetic, radiating her energy to all participants considering that we were all tired as it was the last part of the day tour. She add humor in telling historical accounts of all attractions.

It was a great tour! I don't know how I would've managed going around Kyoto to see the sights without a guided tour. The tour guides both in the morning and afternoon sessions were very entertaining and knowledgeable and we learned a lot. The lunch was great as well. And the personnel who met us at the meeting point and at the departure point were very friendly and ensured that we didn't get lost.

We loved Yuki's (the tour guide to Nara) deadpan humor and engaging personality. She was thoroughly familiar with all the tourist spots and even engaged with us (the tourists) on a personal level. She communicated clearly and spoke in understandable English. Would totally recommend her as a tour guide to friends :)
