There are so many great places in Kyoto that you probably want to visit but perhaps not enough time. Also, Kyoto is getting very crowded due to a lot of foreigners visiting there. It is best to have a local person guiding you to come up with a plan that suits your preference. I can create a tour with you which includes not only popular places like the Golden Pavilion and Fushimi Inari but small temples with Wabi Sabi such as those in Sagano and the oldest Japanese sweet shop in Murasakino.

There are many temples with beautiful gardens in Kyoto. Gardens are part of religious practice and are divided into two, Pure Land style gardens to image the Pure Land of Buddha where our souls go after death, and Zen style gardens to meditate Zen. This tour is focused on Zen and Pure Land gardens in Kyoto. In addition to these, we will also visit Fushimi Inari Shrine that is very famous for its Torii gates. I also can include other places like Nishiki Market & Gion upon request.
