Kyoto Tour Reviews

Kyoto tour

Kenji gave us a terrific, very informative tour. We learned a lot, and he had a nice sense of humor as well.

Excellent tour

We highly recommend Yoshi as your guide for the Golden Temple tour. We visited 4 temples, took trains, the subway and a taxi to the sites. Yoshi directed us back to our subway station near Gion from Arashimaya station. Had Japanese Ramen for lunch close by one Temple. Yoshi was very knowledgeable with the ancient and current history for each site. He was flexible and customized our tour. His English was excellent too.

Hi Judy. Thank you so much for your nice comment on my tour in Kyoto. I am pleased that you liked the art museum near Jojakko-ji Temple in Arashiyama. I hope you will return home with lots of good memories of Japan and come back to Kyoto again during the autumn foliage season. Best wishes. Yoshie

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.
