Kyoto Tour Reviews

What a wonderful day and a wonderful experience Kyōto!

The day with Nikki was simply wonderful. Since the weather wasn’t really good, we were able to change our plans right away. What I especially liked was that she has already seen a lot of the world – that makes her not only a great guide, but also an experienced and very pleasant conversation partner. Thank you as well for the truly exceptional culinary experience – I will always remember it. Thank you, Nikki! I hope that on my next visit to Japan we can see the places we skipped this time because of the weather and the many tourists. Thumbs up, 5/5!

Perfect in Kyoto as in Osaka

Same as in Osaka and in Nara. It was a perfect harmonie between Yuta and us, all tours during these three days would have been a real shame if we would not have had them.

Goin with Jasmine

Jasmine speaks almost perfect English. She emailed me a number of times before the tour to make sure we knew where to meet etc. She provided history and explanations that were very clear and she spoke loud enough that all 5 of us could hear what she was saying ( not true of some other guides). At the end of the tour she helped us find a bar we were looking for and made a great dinner recommendation. We liked her a lot!

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.
