This itinerary is perfect for bringing elders. Although the journey takes a while (starting from Osaka), it only covers 3 points, and the walking distance to the scenic spots isn't tiring. Getting on and off the bus is always the same, so there's no confusion. 👍 The only downside was that when we got off at Arashiyama, the tour leader walked incredibly fast, and the elderly and children in our group couldn't keep up, which was a bit of a shame. Also, tickets for the Sagano Scenic Railway are sold out if you book late, and the travel information didn't clearly state that if you booked early, you could still catch up with the group.
I would definitely choose KKday again next time. The quality of the tour and the itinerary are both excellent! The tour guide is also very dedicated to serving everyone.
The entire trip was well planned. The second stop, the Inari torii gate, was a little shorter due to the schedule of the third stop, the little train. Those who like it might feel a bit unsatisfied. However, it was still manageable because it rained that day. The local guide was very attentive and experienced. He gave you all the necessary reminders and precautions and was trustworthy. I would definitely visit again if I had the chance.
Aside from the small seats in the shuttle bus, the distances between the points weren't too far, so it was acceptable. You could quickly skim through the attractions to get a feel for them and see if you'd like to go back.
The trip went smoothly, and the tour guide introduced the various attractions and good restaurants on the bus, saving time searching for information after getting off the bus. Although the time was a little rushed, overall it went well. The weather was great, and the scenery was beautiful. I recommend it to those who like Japanese history and traditional wooden architecture. The tour guide and back-office staff were friendly and promptly assisted in resolving any issues. I'm truly grateful! 🙏
