Katsuoji Temple

"A huge thank you to our tour leader Kelly for her dedicated guidance! Her explanations and descriptions of the attractions were incredibly vivid, and her time management was impeccable." She even recommended delicious food at the end of the tour. Having such a professional and enthusiastic tour leader was the best part of our first day trip on this independent travel trip!

The weather was good, the car was comfortable, and the tour guide's service was good; he introduced the history of the attractions and some aspects of Japanese culture. Visiting three attractions in one day was a bit rushed, as each place had its own unique features, and transportation wasn't very convenient. Katsuo-ji Temple was beautiful, and the lake sprayed mist, giving it an ethereal feel.

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.

Buy and use immediately! No need to queue for tickets, quick entry – super convenient!! There are so many Daruma dolls, definitely worth seeing. You can also make a wish, and it's a great place for photos. A perfect trip, except the journey is a bit long, everything else was absolutely perfect!!

Mori Naomi will help introduce and take photos of each attraction. Time was also grasped well, it was worth it to visit three attractions in one day.

The itinerary was full, a fulfilling day, the tour guide was professional and attentive, caring for each traveler, and the fixed-point explanation was not sloppy. The wagyu dishes purchased here are also great. The environment is clean and the service is great.
