Overview of your Kyoto tour:

There is a survey for foreign tourists after visiting Kyoto: What were your favourite sightseeing spots in Kyoto? The result was Kiyomizu Temple, Fushimiinari Shrine, Bamboo street & Togetsu bridge in Arashiyama, Nijyo Castle, Kinkakuji Temple, Gion District, Nishiki Market and so on. What if there is a tour time-efficiently covering the most of them within a day ? Unlike Tokyo, Kyoto does not have convenient subways, so that we must efficiently use a city bus, city train, JR and Keihan trains, or simply charter a cab. Even if you had high IT literacy, I assume it is difficult for foreign tourists to go them by a public transportation. I am a local guide familiar with such public transportation and take you to must-see places at each sightseeing spots. The following itinerary could be customized to best suit your preferences: for example, go to Kinkakuji Temple instead of Nijyo Castle and etc.
