Things to do in Heian Shrine

You should choose this in the middle of jam packed itineraries for a relatively slower day. We travelled from Kyoto and the trip started at 9:50 am and ended around 6pm. The bus ride to Amanohashidate was about 2 hrs and beautifill. Then we went up the chairlift and explored amanohadhidate"s sandbar, turning Bridge and Chionji temple (all within a 10 min walk radius) and then took the bus to Ine Village. In Ine we took the stairs (about 70) down to the village and explored it for maybe 10 min and then got on the ferry cruise which was for about 15-20 min. All in a lazy day. Our guide Minako was knowledgeable, explained the area very well and helped take us pictures (for which we were super grateful). Get the fan OMIKUJI from the temple and on your way to Amanohashidate.. you'll see the Japan Sea running parallel to the road you are on. Very very pretty.

Booking this place we knew we were paying a lot more than other providers but thought it would be worth it if quality of experience was better since it is our first time in Japan & never done this type of activity before. We are really glad we did as the quality of the Kimonos and service was excellent. They were really attractive and I was really happy with the hairstyle done on me! It turned out so beautiful, and they were really helpful in helping me choose the colours to go with my Kimono. Overall I am satisfied with the entire experience.

One-day trip to Nara, Kyoto│ Kiyomizudera Temple + Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine + Nara Park (departing from Osaka/Kyoto) But when we got on the bus with broken air conditioning, it was hard to imagine that this would happen in mainland Japan.

Tour was well organized and we had ample time to see the the sights & experience a good time in Amanohashidate🚡 Felt a little bit rushed in Ine Funaya though as we had to move from one spot to another to make it in time for the ferry boat ride.. wish there was an option to stay in the village part of the area (with the café) if you don't wanna join the boat ride🙂But all in all, this was a great tour as going to these places by yourself would be more tiring😅

A great railway museum with a variety of different trains and simulated driving, which children love.

The tour guide Xiao Zhao is great. He introduced the local culture carefully and took me to take beautiful kimono photos. After the trip, he will also care about the safety of the passengers. If you have any questions, you can come to him. He is so enthusiastic ❤️

I highly recommend this tour. It was an exceptionally enjoyable and well-organized experience. Our tour guide, Minako, demonstrated remarkable proficiency, and the bus provided a comfortable and air-conditioned environment. The sights we encountered were truly extraordinary.

The service attitude is good and you can communicate in Chinese. The clerk will give you suggestions on how to wear kimono. You can choose a furisode kimono for an additional 10,000-15,000 yen, so this time I chose to add 10,000 yen (actually it was 15,000 yen, but The store accidentally quoted a wrong price, so I still charged 10,000 yen). The way to put on a kimono is more complicated and time-consuming than usual, but after putting it on, it is really worth taking pictures. The feeling is also very beautiful. The makeup and hair teacher and the teacher who helped put on the kimono. They are all very skilled in the process of hair and outfit changes. You will not feel any discomfort during the process. They will always ask you if you have any discomfort. We have chosen a photography itinerary this time. The photographer can also communicate well in Chinese and will teach you how to pose for a photo. During the short paragraph, I will take the camera to you to confirm the photos. If you have any photos you want to retake, please tell the photographer and he will help you retake the photos. The link will take about 1 day. The photographer will send it to you by email. This service left us with a Very good memories. I will come again next time I have the opportunity and will choose photography services again.
