Hi! Welcome to Kyoto! The fact that you chose to come visit this city itself makes me utterly happy, let along be your tour guide! This tour takes you to Kyoto's must-see sites, such as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. They are well-known for a reason! With the dynamic and historically important buildings, I also take you to local hidden gems. I believe the value of having a good time and learning different cultures and history when you travel will NEVER fall. So I want to create maximum value EVERY TIME. I worked in high-end hospitality for a long time so I'm not going to talk only about history all day long (unless you want it) but always aim to create a comfortable, entertaining, and bespoke experience. So this itinerary is an example or framework which works best most of the time, but I can accommodate most requests. Also, I always make slides to brief you on Japanese history and culture, and I carry a good camera so you don't need anything to fully enjoy the day. I can also drive a private car too.
*This is a common question – the best time to start a tour to avoid the crowd is 6:30 AM. This is a typical full-day tour and is changeable depending on your interests and plans. Four locations work best most of the time with relaxing and unhurried manner while still ensuring you experience Kyoto's rich history and culture. However, we can visit five locations or more if you want. *We can make small stops aside from 4 major sites. 9:00 Start - Meet at your hotel lobby or station 10:00 Location 1 - Kinkakuji, Golden Pavilion 11:30 Location 2 - Nijo-jo Castle 12:30 Lunch - I select a local tasty restaurant near/outside a touristy area (vegan/vegetarian/meat lovers - all are welcome) 13:30 Location 3 - Kiyomizu Dera Temple and surrounding preserved district 16:00 Location 4 - Fushimi Inari Taisha 17:00 Finish - End of tour! Drop you at your desired destination

Please choose your desired method of transportation – public transportation or private vehicle. We can use public transportation if you wish to see the town closer on foot, or use a private vehicle for more comfortable and efficient trip with more options. I can arrange a comfortable car and drive (10,000 JPY for up to 3 people/15,000 JPY for up to 6 people for a whole day). Or hire a private taxi which is typically about 55,000 JPY. If the size of your group is larger than above, please DM me and I will give you the best suggestion.
Kyoto, Kyoto, Japan
Usually, I will pick you up from your hotel if you stay in Kyoto and meet at Kyoto station if you travel from outside. *This is a rare case but please make an inquiry first if you want to meet outside Kyoto.
