I would like you to interact with local people and see the daily lives of them by walking along the local shopping street.

guide fee
transportation fee ( you and guide )--about ¥1000
lunch ( about ¥1000 )
NIJO CASTLE ( ¥600 )
Please wear comfortable shoes.
After viewing the vast gardens and magnificent palace, we will head to a
Japanese restaurant for lunch, and the local shopping street.
We will use the subway to get to our destination smoothly.
The transportation fee is about ¥300.
Buses conveniently stop right at tourist sites, but during the peak seasons , they get very crowded. So I suggest we use the subway or take a taxi. That will take us to our destinations more smoothly.
“Night in Gion”
Yuriko was a very nice and knowledgeable guide. She explained the history of geishas in Gion very well. My mother and I enjoyed our one hour with her.

“A great walk through Southern Higashiyama in Kyoto”
Highly recommend hiring Yuriko as a private tour guide! Working within a time constraint and unsure of how best to manage our expectations (with so little time and so much to see), Yuriko patiently helped us plan a perfect 1/2 day tour prior to our arrival. We were able to see the sights most important to us and move at our own pace. Yuriko used her teaching skills to fill in the blanks, keep us on track, show us some areas of interest away from the crowds and ultimately get us to our final destination on time! It was a wonderful, enlightening day full of memories we will forever cherish! Thanks again Yuriko!
