City Kickstart Tour: Tokyo

Tokyo
2 hours

Knowledgeable guide!

We had a wonderful time with this guide, who took us through a local’s perspective of Tokyo neighborhoods, and also give us tips for the rest of our stay in Japan!

Amazing Tokyo experience!

My family and I were incredibly impressed with the care and attention to detail that Gulay displayed during our 2 days of tours. She was attentive and flexible to our needs, as well made sure to give everyone individual attention. We did one day city tour with her and then 2 days later we went on the vintage shopping tour with her. I was able to find and purchase a 1962 King Seiko watch due to her effort In finding a vintage watch store that sold them. I would highly recommend booking with her when you are in Tokyo. Thank you David and Family

Kyoto never gets tourists tired. Nature, gardens, history, culture, art and food surround you. "The Authentic Kyoto Tour" is planned for those who wish to enjoy Kyoto's history, culture, food and nature. Tell me the priority spots you want to visit, and I'll select one or two of the best seasonal spots for you to add to your itinerary. For example, after walking around busy spots, calm, quiet places are preferably a good choice. I'm sure that you will bring good memories of Kyoto back home.

Fushimi Inari Shrine, famous for many torii gates like an orange tunnel. But most tourists just visit only the entrance. I would like to show you the deep inside of Fushimi Inari Shrine through tunnel and take you to the top of mountain. From Inari mountain, we will walk a part of “Higashiyama Trail” hiking course, then we will visit the family temple of imperial house and Sanjusangen-do temple.

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.
