Overview of your Kyoto tour:

For tourists who want to make full use of their staying time in Kyoto, with the more secured room than bus and train, moving by a private transportation is the best idea. You can enjoy discussion as well as Q&A, sharing information provided by a guide. With this arrangement, you can visit 5 major sites for 8 hours duration, i. e. : Golden Pavilion, originally built in 1397 by Shogun and covered with real gold leaves, which surprises you with a breath taking view. At Ryoanji temple, you can try a little meditation with Zen garden as Queen Elizabeth did 50 years ago. At Kiyomizudera temple, you can enjoy bird eyes view of Kyoto from the wooden stage of the national treasure, rebuilt in 1633 by Shogun. We will make a quick visit to Gion town, where a geisha and maiko are living and working. For the last site, we visit Fushimi-inari shrine to take a picture of thousands of Shinto gates, red colored torii gates, for your album.
