Kyoto Tour Reviews

Kyoto, Nijo, Golden Pavilion and gardens.

Tomoe was an really great guide for our Kyoto day trip. She was kind, knowledgeable and thoughtful. Her historic knowledge was excellent and she gave us much insight into Japanese life in general, both past and present. It was as if we were on an outing with a wise friend. Importantly we found communication with Tomoe before we arrived in Japan easy and we appreciated her advice on how to make the best use of our limited time. We would recommend you consider Tomoe as you guide of choice in Kyoto. Thanks Tomoe. John and Ian.

A very full one day introduction to Kyoto

We thoroughly enjoyed our day with Yumi in Kyoto. We were only there for a short time but Yumi made every moment count. We walked, talked, asked many questions and enjoyed a fine meal together. The city is large so we did take taxis to many sites so you need to add those costs to the price of the tour but there is no way to have seen and done as much without transportation. Yumi is a delight. Highly recommended.

Great time in Kyoto!

My family had a great time with Jasmine in Kyoto, she’s knowledgeable and went at a comfortable pace to cover everything we wanted to see. It was also helpful that she’s multilingual and fluent in English and Mandarin which suited us perfectly. I would definitely visit Kyoto with Jasmine again and spend a few days next time.

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.
