About
A trip to meet your favorite sake by visiting the sake brewery or tasting, tasting the sweets made with sake, and having the perfect snacks, is a premonition that any liquor master will discover "something".
On this tour, you will also take a Fushimi Jikkokubune Boat Cruise where you can enjoy the port town of Fushimi while being blown by the gentle breeze.
★Gekkeikan Okura Sake Museum is a renovated sake brewery in the late Meiji era, where you can learn about the history of Fushimi sake brewing and the laurel wreath. There are various highlights such as an exhibition of sake action tools designated as a tangible folk cultural property of Kyoto City!
★"Fushimi Jikkokubune Boat Cruise": You can enjoy a waterside trip with a row of sake breweries and willow trees as if you had traveled back in time to the Edo period.
★Kizakura Kappa Country is a traditional izakaya operated by a famous brewery. Here you will experience a comparison of 9 types of Kizakura-Sake.

- shopaholicpp0 contributionsPoodle Cafe PromotionI walked to the information centre as they had a poster for a teacup poodle café there. It was 1k yen for 40mins + 1 drink for child. I purchased it thinking it's a good deal. When we went to the café, it was a small bare room with a few customers and each of them had a poodle on their lap. That's it. there were only a few small poodles and you had to wait for them to get off someone's lap. I feel it's a rip-off for that and I don't think a tourist information centre should be promoting that café.Written 22 January 2020

- RichardNN120 contributionsGreat relaxing experienceComing from Europe, a Japanese Onsen can feel a challenge - but don't be deterred. The staff here speak good English, explain where to go, what to do. I enjoyed the various different bathing experiences, and then paid for a 30 minutes vigorous scrub and massage session after. I highly recommend it all. I felt refreshed and invigorated when it was all over.Written 22 November 2019
