Miyazu

Previously, when traveling from Osaka to Kyoto, my instinct was to take the train or JR. This time, with a 10-year-old child, the subway and train journeys alone were exhausting. Trying a private car arrangement proved to be very advantageous: Time-saving: Directly getting from our accommodation to our destination saved a significant amount of time. Effortless: Luggage was handled, avoiding long walks and waiting times. Worry-free: The itinerary was pre-arranged, ensuring we arrived on time without worrying about missing our trains; boarding and alighting times were flexible. Cost-saving: Compared to day tour groups, our private car day trip was cheaper when split among the passengers. On the day of the trip, Kyoto was hot. We didn't have to endure the heat at the station. When we arrived, we found it too hot outside, so we boarded the car early after visiting the sights. We quickly discussed it with the driver, and they quickly adjusted the itinerary to indoor activities, avoiding a forced outdoor activity in the sun. We finished shopping and returned to the hotel satisfied within the allotted time. This experience was very satisfying. Driver Chen was a friendly and polite person, and our conversation in the car was pleasant.

The scenery was amazing, and it was incredibly hot, but we went up by cable car and came down by chairlift, enjoying the view along the way. One of Japan's three most scenic spots! Definitely worth seeing!

Amanohashidate is one of Japan's three most scenic spots. Taking the cable car to the top of the mountain offers a truly breathtaking and stunning view. Thanks to our guide, Mr. Hu, for his professional and informative explanation; I learned so much! It's a pity we were a bit rushed and couldn't fully appreciate the beauty, leaving a slight regret. I look forward to returning next time to explore Amanohashidate properly and truly experience its charm. 😊
