There are a lot of wonderful places in Kyoto, especially in the cherry blossom and autumn foliage seasons.
But, because of that, such places are so busy.
So I escort you to not busy, but still beautiful places.
Sometimes I wonder why tourists don't visit those places. This tour is to visit such places and I don't walk on a busy road.
In the end, I'd like to recommend a restaurant, considering your allergy or preference.
At your hotel or the station
- At the lobby of your hotel or the train station
Although this is an old historical rather large temple, not so busy because of the access.
You can enjoy the quiet atmosphere sitting in front of beautiful gardens, the Higashiyama on the backdrop with beautiful fall foliage.
A beautiful path along a canal with many cherry trees and fall foliage
You can enjoy the interesting structures of the building. This is truly a mecca for fall foliage less busy.
Where you are never at a loss to go back to your hotel
At your hotel or some your favorite restaurant

We will walk on the paved road. But we go up and down stairs. So, please put on easy walking shoes. Please take water with you. Please walk with your speed. There are so many photo spots. We can be flexible.
“Osaka 6 hour private tour”
Despite being called last minute to cover for another guide, Shuji was great in reworking our tour based on our interests, on the fact that the day of the tour was a Japanese holiday, and the weather was unseasonably hot and humid. Overall we had a good time with Shuji and learned about Osaka history and culture.

(17 reviews)Dear Stephen, Thank you very much for the kind words and the lovely photo. Although I was a substitute guide that day, I had a good time with you both despite the sweltering weather. I'm afraid that you got tired because of the heat. I hope your business is perfect today. Thank you again. Shuji O.

“Amazing place with excellent guide”
Our guide Shuji took excellent care of our family. He was very considerate planning the tour so the children and adults can enjoy the place. He made suggestions so it was easy for the kids to navigate (5 and 7 years old). He recommended which place to eat and advice us which place to avoid. He was very patient answering my nephew's questions about fishing! Unfortunately it rained but it was towards the end of our tour. We would highly recommend our guide Shuji. Thank you for the wonderful tour. Lynette and family ( Philippines)

(17 reviews)Thank you for your kind review. We visited Nara considering the sudden heavy rain and the condition of 5 and 7-year-old children. The most challenging thing for me was the series of questions from 7-year-old boys about fishing. Yes, I also had a pleasant day in Nara. Thank you very much. See you sometime.
