A "MUST DO" in Tokyo

Jan 2020

My wife and I plus another couple visited Tokyo for the first time and only had two full days to see all the sights. The "One day Bus Tour" was great as we saw most of the major sights in modern clean buses. Our tour guide "LEVIN" was very knowledgeable, spoke perfect english, was a lot of fun and overall a great guide. Make sure you include lunch as it is a great cultural experienceThe day is long starting at 8:50am at the "LOVE ART" and concludes around at 5:50pm at te Shinjuku Station. My only complant is that it took us over an hour to find our way back to the start point with the help of locals so we knew where we were.
Overall thsi is a value for money tour which takes in most of the sights of Tokyo

Totally recommend it

Jan 2020 • Family

I would recommend this tour to anyone who visits Kyoto for the first time. The tour itself is jam packed, visiting some of the key shrines in Kyoto, and gives you an even better idea of what to visit next so you could streamline your travel plans. The itinerary itself is spot on, leaving you enough time for other plans by around 5:15. The tour guide (Lanny) is hilarious and very attentive. Anything you want to know about Kyoto, you could just fire away and ask. She’s happy to share and assist!

Overall, i’d say the tour is well planned, punctual for a reasonable price. For all you night owls who join, best to stay near Kyoto station if you cannot wake up before 7:30. For those who are used to wake up early, the meeting point in Osaka is conveniently set at the Hotel Vischio Osaka (the Kyoto one is near Kyoto Station AND Hotel Vischio Kyoto) and its a breeze walk from umeda station through Grand Osaka Front North building side doors to get to the meeting point.

I can’t begin to describe what an amazing tour guide Levin was! He’s a unique character, so funny, positive and playful, I’ve never enjoyed a full day tour so much. He made the time on the bus pass so quickly, you won’t feel tired or bored for a second! I wish all guides had his energy and attitude. All of us on the bus laughed our hearts out, while also being professionally taken care of on a truly well-organized trip. If you ever go on a Fuji tour there’s nobody better than Levin to take you on it. It’s worth every cent! Also, don’t be late cause he will make you sing in front of everyone :))) Loved, loved, loved everything about this trip!

We enjoyed the trip immensely. It was both for the nice sights and the heart rendering reflections from the Hiroshima leg. Special props to tour guide Hiromi who picked us up in Shin Osaka for the Shinkansen trip to Hiroshima and who also accompanied us back to the station. She was a one-woman army who also handled the tour guide in Hiroshima and Miyajima with 24 guests.

The bus was comfortable but no water was provided on a very hot day and the first part of the journey was spent in motorway traffic which wasted at least 2 hours of our journey. Our guide was lovely (Key) who was very informative and friendly. The stop for lunch was then cut short and we ended up with 15 minutes at Mt Fuji which was very disappointing. I would recommend fast train to a stop near Mt Fuji and return be included in the price and just have buses at the station for the rest of the tour.

Easiest way to hack up some destinations on the list.
My favourite part of the trip was definitely the engaging energy of Mo San and her quizzes (⁠•⁠‿⁠•⁠)
I recommend using the toilet before getting to the meeting point, since there will be a long queue wherever you find a toilet on the trip. Also some warm clothes for up on the mountain, depends on when you travel (1 degree on march 29th)
If I could change one thing about this trip, I would only add a half hour to the last stop, because we tried to be fast, yet we couldn't see everything and use the bathroom before getting back to the bus in time!

The tour provides a broad array a varied experiences ranging from modern day Tokyo, an amazingly advanced city to glimpses of the historic past. My granddaughter (age 20) from UK, said she felt she was living in the future! Our tour guide Yoshi was humorous, knowledgeable and caring - a perfect ambassador for Japanese culture. And most importantly, we were not pressurized into visiting tourist sales shops. but instead given a real insight into life today.

The Japan Panoramic Tours day trip to Mount Fuji and Hakone was an amazing experience. We were lucky enough to go on a clear day and Mount Fuji was already visible even on the highway. Our tour guides Levin & Aki were an absolute pleasure. They both made the tour even better with their knowledge of Mount Fuji & the area, kept us entertained the entire bus ride and are both great photographers, helping our group with photos without even having to ask.

I definitely would recommend this tour and when I come back next time I will be booking again in hopes of getting the same tour guides!

Tokyo Tour with Taka

Oct 2023 • Couples

Our recent tour with Taka was truly memorable! Despite the rain dampening our morning, Taka's unwavering positivity and infectious enthusiasm ensured that our spirits remained high. His knowledge of the shrines was both enlightening and comprehensive, giving us a deeper understanding and appreciation of Japanese culture. Moreover, Taka went above and beyond, providing us with numerous recommendations that greatly enhanced our time in Japan. I would highly recommend Taka to anyone looking for a genuine and enriching experience in Japan.

Hi. We will be Tokyo 14-17 Jan 2020 and want day tour to Osaka from tokyo? 2 adults and 1x 14yr. Do you do these tours and if so how much please?

Hi, Not sure why I got this question as I am a tourist and not a member of the tour company. However, Osaka is about three hours by bullet train from Tokyo and then you would have to meet up with your tour. We did not go to Osaka, but remained in Kyoto for 3 days. I would recommend traveling to Osaka and staying overnight if you'd like to have a guided tour and see many main highlights. Best of luck. We enjoyed Japan so much.

We would like to do the "Kyoto Cultural Forest, Shrine and Temple Tour with Options" and will be staying in Osaka. There seems to be an option to start from Osaka, but nowhere does it appear to indicate from where. Can anyone (especially Japan Panoramic Tours staff) let us know the pickup point (we assume 7:30 am) in Osaka, please? The page only lists the drop-off point and we don't assume it is the same.

For Osaka, meeting place is at Nishi Umeda Bus Parking Lot at 7:20am (7:30dep). But from 2020, meeting place is going to change to Hotel Vischio Osaka main entrance at 7:20am (7:30dep). You’ll get a message from Japan Panoramic Tour once you book the tour:) Hope this works for you.
