Beautiful walk up to Minoh Waterfall

Nora_K, Oct 2023

What perfect weather to make the nature walk up to Minoh Falls. Our tour guide Ichiro was humorous and provided us with interesting facts along the way. We enjoyed our lunch in a quaint restaurant, don't think we would have discovered this restaurant if we were hiking on our own. What a great way to spend the day outdoors on this beautiful nature walk!

Great Start on our First Day in Japan

Rosemary_L, Oct 2023

Very peaceful walk to the waterfall and so much more! The guide answered any question we asked about Japan and has lived in the United States so he was easy to understand.

Our Minoh Falls Tour was our All Time Favorite !!

Kimberly_T, Jul 2023

Turns out, Minoh is only about 30 mins outside of Osaka and it's so very easy to get to from the train. Our guide, Ichii, picked us up at our hotel and off we went. We first visited a modern hotel there which had remarkable views of the city. Then we climbed the mountain toward the falls. The road was very nice. Along the way was a temple that we stopped in and visited. Itchii was very knowledgeable. Then the Falls !! It was a beautiful Waterfall !! On the way back, we stopped in and had lunch. It was all just perfect !! Great tour, our favorite !!
