“OSAKA, KIOTO Y NARA ”
Osaka fue una parada de dos dias del crucero y Takashi hizo que aprovecharamos el tiempo al maximo, el primer dias nos movilizamos en un vans que alquilamos de Osaka a Kioto y visitamos todos los sitios mas relevantes, ir con Takashi nos permitió movilizarnos rápido, luego regresamos a Osaka y nos orientó en lo que debíamos hacer por nuestra cuenta. El segundo día nos recogió en la terminal y salimos juntos a Nara, recorrimos Nara y al medio día regresamos a Osaka para terminar de recorrer los sitios mas emblemáticos de Osaka y luego nos llevo a la terminal de cruceros. Takashi es una persona muy educada que nos fue explicando la historia en los diferentes sitios visitados, fue muy eficiente en el uso del tiempo y gracias a él, en el poco tiempo que tuvimos en Osaka, logramos conocer 3 ciudades. Habla perfectamente bien el español, fue un guia EXCELENTE!!

Bamboo grove and Arashiyama area, three World Heritages.
Arashiyama is the hottest tourist destination. It is incredibly beautiful in spring and fall because of its cherry blossoms and autumn leaves. In the fall, the leaves turn brown or red! In the outstanding Tenryuji, you will see a beautiful garden with beautiful mountains in the background. There are many other beautiful places with touching stories in this area. On the way back to downtown, we can visit two world heritage sites, Kinkakuji and Ryoanji. What a wonderful route!
