Reviews

“A very beautiful experience starting with the romantic train and then the river ride. It was so fun! The buffet was nice, and we had a perfect time strolling around Arashiyama. Our tour guide was very informative and helpful.”
“A very good one-day tour with smooth transportation and a fruitful itinerary. The Japanese guide was good, though her English was not very fluent, but everything was very good. The lunch buffet was average, but there was plenty of food available on the streets.”
“This half-day tour was the highlight of our holiday. We are so glad we booked it. Excellent value for money. The guide was excellent and the boatmen were funny and hardworking. Highly recommend for anyone visiting Arashiyama. Don’t forget to try the tofu ice cream after the bamboo forest—it’s delicious.”
