“They were the nicest people ever taking care about every single detail, honestly is so worth for the price they are offering. The location is so convenient next to the train station so you can go anywhere. And exploring a little of Kyoto tower before or after is interesting. They even take into consideration the preparation time and the return time is half an hour after the reservation starts since it takes a while to get you ready. It is definetly a MUST when visiting Japan.”
