Kyoto Tour Reviews

Unbelievable day touring Kyoto by Private Car !

Outstanding day seeing temples and getting to learn so much about tradition, culture and religion here in Japan. Michiko took us to multiple temples and had so much extra information for us along the way. 10/10 - can’t recommend this tour enough.

Two Half-Day Tour Via Car

This was a well-designed tour that minimized our exposure to the sweltering heat by starting early and going by car. We gave Kanae our wish list of things to see in Kyoto and she tailored our two mornings based on our interests. I enjoyed the car rides between locations where we learned about life in Japan which I feel would not have been possible if we were on public transportation. On the second day, after learning that I’m not a fan of crowds, Kanae showed us some smaller shrines that I really enjoyed. If she’s available, I’d book her again in a heartbeat.

Lorene, thank you so much for your kind and generous review. I'm so glad to know you enjoyed the tour despite the severe heat. I'm also thrilled that you enjoyed the smaller, more serene sites we visited on the second day. It was a joy to share those special places with you. I really enjoyed your company and hope I can guide you again the next time you visit Japan!

Great day in the country outside of Kyoto

We had a most enjoyable day with Kanae. We visited Byodoin Temple which was one of the most impressive temples we visited in Kyoto. Also Shojuin Temple which is open to the public once every 50 years. That was amazing. We then drove to the green tea plantation area of Wazuka and had lunch overlooking the tea plantations. Kanae was great company and a wonderful person to get to know.
