My tours DO NOT have a fixed Itinerary. Please read my profile. I can't exactly help being a bit of a showman during my tours, and I will talk a bit about myself and my background. I enjoy meeting people from all places and of all races. I support Ukraine. LGBTQ+ friendly! -Train ride south from Kyoto to Uji (~25 minutes) -Visit the oldest Shinto shrine in Japan (World Heritage site #1) -See the Rabbits! -Walk "through" the Uji river -Stop for Green Tea and a snack (or a full meal looking over the riverside?) -Unlisted secret spots -Many tiny tidbits of unusual information -Visit Byōdōin temple (World Heritage site #2) which is shown on back of the Japanese ¥10 coin. (There are several chances to experience a tea ceremony if you wish to; I will try and find a less-crowded one) -Visit statue of first novelist Activities may vary by day/time (e. g. museums usually close on Mondays, many shops close at ~4:30PM or 5:00PM in Uji) Unlisted 'bonus' activities added as time permits.
