Itinerary

  • Amanohashidate

    Discover the beauty of Amanohashidate, or Heaven's Bridge, a scenic landmark on the coast of Kyoto named one of the Three Famous Scenic Spots in Japan. We will make a stop near Kasamatsu Park, which has an observatory that offers an auspicious and breathtaking view of the area. A cable car ticket for Kasamatsu Park is included. You'll have 2 hours of free time to explore the area on your own and grab lunch before we head to our next destination.

    2 hours

  • Ine no Funaya

    We'll arrive in Ine, a charming seaside fishing village famed for its unique "funaya," or boathouses, that line the bay. The town is home to Urashima shrine, tied to the classic Japanese folk tale of Urashima Taro. We'll also board the Ine Bay Sightseeing Boat for a serene look around the area. Aboard the cruise, enjoy beautiful views of the bay and its iconic funaya. If you're lucky, you might spot some dolphins swimming alongside the ship. The tranquil waters of the bay are shielded by Aoshima Island, an uninhabited island said to be the home of the gods. It calms the incoming wind and waves, allowing the bay to remain peaceful.

Great scenic views.

Published on Dec, 2024

Amanohashidate was very scenic and we got great pictures on a sunny day. There was a eatery at the top of the viewpoint which overlooked the strip of land and it was breathtaking. The food coupon you get is ok for the meal, nothing too special. The ticket for the chairlift is the way to go as you get a nice view going down the mountain. I found not enough time to find the bicycle shop and ride the bicycle through the strip of pine trees in the water. But was still enjoyable. Ine bay is better for less active people as it is just a a boat ride. Some good views. The bus ride is long getting there and back. Be prepared.

Perhaps the best tour we...

Published on Nov, 2024

Perhaps the best tour we took during this trip to Japan. The places were not crowded, so we really got to enjoy the scenery, and Winnie was a great tour guide.

Well organized trip

Published on Nov, 2024

The trip was well-organized, and the guide provided informative details about the places we visited. I wasn't particularly impressed with the included pork lunch, but it was acceptable. The drive from Osaka takes nearly 3 hours, so a significant part of the day is spent on the coach. However, the views are stunning, and the destination is definitely a hidden gem!

A wonderful blend of land and sea

Published on Oct, 2024

This excursion was absolutely delightful. The directions for reaching the rally point were clear, and from that point on all we to do was board the bus and enjoy. The seating was incredibly comfortable (a great perk after multiple flights and covering Osaka on for for several days), with reliable Wi-Fi. Our guide was both helpful and entertaining, on adding to the comfort and of the trip. The sites, Amanohashidate and Ine, were perfect destinations for taking in some of Japan's natural beauty. I/we would probably do this outing again to share with friends and family.

Long rides but worth it.

Published on Jul, 2024

Although it is a long ride there and back, it's very worth it. The company we went with, Limon was top notch. Very professional, easy to find, the guide, I can't remember his name right now, but he was excellent. He can speak 3 languages fluently and gave the tour in all. We went in July and there were little tourists, the weather was perfect, overcast and not too hot. We loved going up to amanohashidate, however, i suggest not to buy the lunch ticket, you may not have time to eat as we didn't, and wasted my money. Just get something on your own. They also hand out your tickets for the days events, so do not lose any of them. At Ine, it was beautiful, but very short. I wouldn't want to get there on my own.
