Jojakko-ji Temple

I highly recommend driver Cai Weiping for a self-guided tour with elderly relatives. Since our accommodation required changing from Osaka to Kyoto, this day trip was perfect – conveniently connecting Osaka and Kyoto. Arriving early at Katsuo-ji Temple, there weren't many tourists, making it ideal for taking photos. After Katsuo-ji, there was ample time to explore Arashiyama. Even after returning to the hotel, we still had energy for leisurely strolls. If your accommodation involves changing from Osaka to Kyoto, you absolutely must book this tour! I can't imagine the hardship of lugging luggage and traveling all the way to Katsuo-ji and then Kyoto.
