This is one of the most popular tour plans in my list. People love this tour, probably for its advantages, i. e. optimizing their limited time to visit Kyoto, and sharing the information with each other during the transit. Especially, travelers can organize themselves before the tour while on board, to assemble up to 5 people for minimizing the tour costs. With this tour, you may discover the core of Kyoto, i. e. visiting original Shogun villas, i. e. 400 years old Nijo castle, with national treasures and beautiful gardens. At Golden Pavilion, another Shogun villa, you can enjoy a magnificent reflection of golden shape on the pond. At Ryoanji temple, you have the dry rock garden, as Queen Elizabeth enjoyed at her visit 47 years ago. On our way back, we drop by at Gion, where you may see Geisha walking on the street. For the last visit we drop by at Fushimi-inari shrine. Though this itinerary is suggested, I can customize them along with your requests, within the time frame of 9.5 hours.
