Kyoto Day Tour Arashiyama Scenic Train and Hozugawa River Cruise
Title: Amazing Arashiyama Scenic Train and Hozugawa River Cruise
We had a wonderful day exploring Arashiyama, enjoying the scenic train ride through the mountains and the amazing Hozugawa River Cruise. Irene was our guide, and although it was her first day as a tour guide, she was very friendly, polite and welcoming. There was a mix-up with the river cruise tickets, but with the help of some fellow passengers, it was sorted out quickly. Irene kindly apologised for the delay, which we appreciated. The river cruise was absolutely amazing and a real highlight of our day. Overall, we had a lovely experience and made some wonderful memories! Janne Australia

Lake Biwa Cruise, Chikubu Island and Hikone Castle in Kyoto Tour
Great experience at lake Biwa!
We had a great day with our guide Justin! We highly recommend this tour to everyone who wants to get out of bustling Kyoto and into nature. The transportation all went very smoothly, and we felt like we were in good hands. We saw the great lake Biwa, Chikubushima Island, Hikone Castle & garden and more. In the morning it was sunny but in the afternoon it poured. Regardless, Justin made the best of it, made sure we were always comfortable, and we had great conversations throughout the day.
