Kyoto Private Tours

“Action-packed day”

Tomoe organized a fun and action-packed tour, covering Fushimi Inari, Kiyomizu-dera, and Nijo Castle in one day without feeling rushed. She picked good times to visit each place and gave helpful and often humorous context along the way. One note: we visited Kyoto in October when it was quite hot (over 80 degrees): covering all of these places was very doable, but we were glad to have budgeted some rest / cool-off time during lunch.

“Great Tour Guide”

My wife and I toured three days in Kyoto and one day in Nara with Yasu. I would definitely recommend him as your private tour guide. He was patient and helpful, providing insight at all the sites we visited. He was flexible in customizing his typical tours to our priorities and was exceptional in communicating during the planning stages of our four days of touring.

Dear Steve and Sherii Thank you very much for your nice review. I was also very happy to be able to accompany with you. How is Sherii's leg? I hope that she has been recovered and you continue to have nice stays in Japan. Yasu

“Excellent all day tour of Kyoto”

Fumi met us at our hotel and we spent a wonderful day with her exploring Kyoto. We had tried to find the highlights of Gion on our own the previous day but wasted so much time messing with Google Maps. With Fumi, she was very knowledgeable, organized, and showed us everything we had originally wanted to see in Kyoto, and more. She very efficiently organized the day so we traveled from various parks, temples, shrines, and the geisha district. Fumi showed us the beauty of Kyoto and shared the history of this special area. It was a bonus that Fumi was very personable and friendly. We enjoyed getting to know her. We would highly recommend her tour, especially if you have limited time and want to see the best of Kyoto.
