Overview of your Kyoto tour:

Koto is a Japanese traditional musical instrument. You can enjoy listening to Koto music, at the same time, experience of Kimono, maccha green tea tasting and making it yourself. The Koto musician is a very kind Japanese lady, actually my fiend! She will welcome you in her Kimono. Not only Koto but she plays Shamisen ( Japanese string). After home visit, we go to Shimogamo-jinja, a very old shrine designated as the World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Part of Virgin forest is left in its precincts. The shrine is believed to be a power spot in Kyoto. This tour is not always available, depending on the musicians availability. Would you please ask the availability before you make a booking request? Important! I require that you be covered by your own travel insurance policies. By accepting my services and participating in the tour, you release me of any liability for any injury or accident occurring during the tour.
