Un verdadero placer

Takashi ha hecho de nuestro día uno para el recuerdo en Kyoto. Entretenido, amable y muy dinámico. Sin duda muy muy recomendable para todos los hispano hablantes. Gracias!

Wanted more of a Guide, Got a local who speaks English

I was looking for more a guide led experience, where she would tell us about the sights we were visiting and other interesting things about Japanese culture. I did get a few stories but I would have liked more. It felt more like I had a local who speaks English for companionship.

Private Tours in Kyoto

Unlock the mysteries of Kyoto with a local tour guide! From temples in Gion to lush gardens in Arashiyama, discovering Kyoto’s global appeal is one click away.

Ready to cool off from the day’s heat and high activity? Book a tour to the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove, a mesmerizing forest of towering bamboo stalks. While a popular destination, private tour guides can lead you off the beaten path to explore lesser-known trails and rest stops, allowing you and your travel team to escape the crowds and rest in the peaceful ambiance of the grove.

Beyond the visual appeal, your Kyoto tour guide can share stories about the significance of bamboo in Japanese culture overall, and help you gain appreciation for Arashiyama's natural beauty in a more intimate way.
