The Best Kyoto Kibune Tour Experience

Shinichi is truly one of the best tour guides we’ve ever had in Kyoto. He’s kind, soft-spoken, patient, and very thoughtful when it comes to our needs and requests. At the very beginning of our trip, he even surprised us with a small gift—which was such a kind and thoughtful gesture that made us feel instantly welcomed. He was punctual and expertly guided us to Kibune via train and bus, making sure we had the best views along the way. He even helped secure our spots at popular places like Hirobun Soba Restaurant and Hyoue Cafe in Kibune by speaking directly with the staff on our behalf. Shinichi speaks excellent English and shared interesting facts, travel tips, and even insights into current events in Japan. We especially appreciated how open he was in sharing about his personal life—it gave us a deeper understanding of what life in Japan is really like. Overall, our trip with Shinichi was unforgettable. If we could give him 100 stars, we would—but for now, 5 stars will have to do! Thank you so much, Shinichi-san, for making our visit to Kibune so special. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a knowledgeable and kind guide in Kyoto!

Temples of Kyoto

An excellent day in Kyoto, where Lisa took good care of us and should us the most important Shinto and Buddhist temples. An excellent way to experience Kyoto and get more hands-on information and guidance on how these two religions coexist in Japanese culture.

Kyoto Private Tour Guide

Discover Kyoto's hidden gems with a private tour guide! Navigate the city's rich history, culture, and food like a local with a tour guide that knows the way.

Push beyond tour favorites like Kinkaku-ji and Fushimi Inari Taisha, and the crowds they attract, towards hidden gems waiting to be discovered with the help of a private tour guide. One such place is the Tofuku-ji Temple, known for its stunning autumn foliage and serene atmosphere. A private tour guide can provide insights into the temple's architecture, Zen gardens, and historical significance, allowing visitors to appreciate its beauty beyond the surface level.

With calmer crowds, you and your loved ones can create the kind of memories you want, with no interruptions. In Kyoto, your private guide will ensure you have the time, knowledge and space to savor moments of tranquility and reflection and soak in the spiritual ambiance of this lesser-known gem.
