Full description
This is a 11-hour experience from Kyoto, built around Bus/coach, Train and Amanohashidate. It is run by Lucky Day Travel, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.
Kyoto was Japan's capital for over a thousand years until 1868 and has 17 UNESCO-listed sites among some 2,000 temples and shrines. The big three are Kinkaku-ji, the Golden Pavilion, covered in gold leaf and best in morning light; Kiyomizu-dera, the wooden stage on the eastern hills with the Higashiyama lanes of Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka below it; and Fushimi Inari's gates. Nijo Castle has the nightingale floors that squeak against intruders, and Ryoan-ji the rock garden. Temples open around 8:00 or 9:00 and close at 17:00, and the city bus is slow; a day with a driver or a guide who orders the stops against the crowds is the difference between four sights and seven.
The price covers 45-minute Sea View Train ride, Air-conditioned tour bus, driver, Tour guide and Pickup and drop-off at Osaka station. It does not cover Meals and Personal expenses, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
1-chōme-3-6 Nipponbashi, Chuo Ward, Osaka, 542-0073日本. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with Lucky Day Travel before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Did the Nov. 21st tour with Bunny. She is friendly, organized and very helpful. Her cheerful presence made the day special. The tour offered good amount of free time and didn't feel as rushed as normal tours. The ride up and down the hill on the ski life is simply amazing, the view is breathtaking. The seaside view is also very peaceful and really different from the over crowded other tourist areas. The train is just a local train, gives a good glimpse of the country side, the sea view is shorter than I have expected, still I had an enjoyable time. It is 2 hrs drive before the train ride and 3
Es war ein wirklich toller Tag, unser Guide Frank hatte alles super im Griff und wir hatten viel Spaß zusammen. Ich persönlich hätte die Bahnfahrt nicht gebraucht denn tatsächlich hat man später im Bus eine noch viel schönere Aussicht. Die stops waren jeweils lang genug um etwas zu entdecken, Fotos zu machen etc. Wir machen solche Touren eher selten aber so wären wir hier niemals hingekommen und es hat sich für uns wirklich gelohnt. Danke Frank!
Karin est très compétente et très aimable et nous a donne beaucoup d’informations et des bons plans de visites grand merci à elle ; Cette excursion est excellente ; bravo
Zack was phenomenal and the driver fantastic. We could not go on the boat because of weather conditions, but they refunded the cost. I would reccomend.
私にとりましては 何度目かの 天の橋立でした。 こちらのツアーは 立ち寄り先の自由時間が充分あり、ｗｃ休憩が ドライブインでないので 余計な時間なく よかったです 何よりも ガイドさんが日本人の私を気にかけてくれて ありがたかったです。
Był to bardzo wartościowy wyjazd, ekscytującym było zobaczyć kawałek starej Japonii… grupa w której się znajdowałam była ze świetną przewodniczką Shuya, dzięki niej wyprawa miała inny wymiar kulturowy, Bardzo kompetentna, uprzejma lubiąca ludzi i swoją pracę. Dziękuję
The trip was really nice and you had enough time to see everything for your self.
Went on tour 22/10 and had good time visiting the locations but tour felt disorganised. Our guide Yuko was friendly but was vague giving any info on the day ahead, so felt more like a magical mystery tour. No info or history was given at any stop, so didn't really know where we were most of the time, as on previous tours, guides never stopped talking about what to see or experience. Meeting points were confusing, which led to some being 20 mins late to bus. At the cable car, which we thought was booked, were told no spaces were available, so had to go up by a ski lift. Luckily this was there,
