We originally planned to take a bus to the Miho Museum on our own, but after seeing this tour, we decided to join because we wanted to visit other attractions as well. It was incredibly convenient and time-saving. You just hop on the bus at the designated stop, saving you time getting to the attractions. This is perfect for those who want to travel independently but also want to visit attractions a bit further away. It's a convenient option that avoids spending the entire trip rushing between sights. I highly recommend it.
The direct transfer from Kansai Airport to the hotel in Kobe was quick and convenient. The driver provided clear directions to the pick-up point upon arrival, and we simply went to the meeting point to board. The car was large and new, with ample space for luggage, so there was no need to worry. Most importantly, the driver accurately took us to the drop-off point and drove safely throughout the journey. I highly recommend this service.
The pre-flight pick-up and drop-off service was convenient; they contacted us in advance via Line to confirm our arrival date and time. Upon landing, we were quickly informed of the meeting point and given clear directions, ensuring a smooth and quick ride even though we arrived late at night. The driver was also very skilled and the car was spotless. It was a very good experience.
Sanzen-in Temple is worth a visit. My favorite part was the cake factory; not only was the scenery beautiful, but the Baumkuchen (a type of Chinese cake) was also delicious. However, the time allotted for the visit was too short. Just queuing for cake took 30 minutes, but you only had an hour to stay, so you could only see about half of the place. I recommend signing up for a weekday tour with a detailed explanation from our guide, Xiao Du!
