For travelers, with less than 3 members, who want to enjoy beautiful Kyoto at their own pace without rushing, this tour is ideally designed. You can optimize your time by taking taxis from site to site for most of the time without waiting time for buses. Still you can visit 2 major sites for a half day, i. e. : In western Kyoto, you can enjoy the real Shogun castle, Nijo castle, with 400 years old national treasures inside palace. Then visit Golden Pavilion to admire the magnificent reflection of its shape on the pond ( shiny ! with the sunset ). Or in south eastern Kyoto, you can enjoy photographing yourself through the tunnel of thousands of vermillion colored gates, to pray for your wish come true in Fushimi-inari shrine. Then visit Kiyomizudera temple and you will be amazed with the bird eyes view of beautiful Kyoto ( without high-rise, without chimney ) from the wooden terrace, built in hundreds years ago without nails. Although the above 2 models are suggested, I can customize them for your request.
Model itineraries: ( a ) For western Kyoto model: - From your hotel, taxi to Nijo castle: Enjoy walking through the castle palace with national treasures for 40 minutes. Enjoy the castle garden by walking through the path for 50 minutes - Taxi to Golden pavilion: Enjoy taking pictures of magnificent views of the Pavilion with its reflection on the pond.

Enjoy Kiyomizudera temple with taking pictures by walking upstairs for 1 hour. Downhill to taxi stop for 10 minutes - Taxi back to your hotel.
