In this tour, we can visit all the must-see places in the southern part of Kyoto together. Fushimi, known for the Fushimi Inari Shrine with its thousand torii gates and sake breweries, and Uji, famous for its matcha and the Phoenix Hall, each hold a unique position in Kyoto. During this tour, I, who have lived in Uji for three years and now work in Fushimi, will share the charm of these two towns from a local's perspective, as we explore by bicycle.

“Bike trip through Kyoto!”
Our trip in Kyoto was excellent, and one of those days was thanks to our guide Mine! He took us on an excellent bike adventure through parts of Kyoto; the experience was exciting and different from anything we would have done on our own. He is patient, kind, and trustworthy, always looked out for our enjoyment. Arigato Gozaismasu!

“Magical trip to the mountain ”
I highly recommend this tour and Ryuichiro as a guide. He guided me through a serene day in the mountain that was the best of the 10 days I was in Japan. He is accommodating, thoughtful, knowledgeable and kind. His love for nature really showed me how peaceful Japan is. It is a beautiful country defined by its natural beauty that transcends chaos.

Dear Ying-ya san, Thank you so much for your kind words. I’m truly honored to hear that our day together in the mountains was the highlight of your trip to Japan. It means a great deal to me. If you ever return to Japan, I would be delighted to guide you again. Wishing you all the best until then! Ryuichiro Mine

Let's enjoy early morning Kyoto and maiko experience
Kyoto is one of the most popular places to visit, but so crowded. If you want to enjoy quiet Kyoto, I recommend you visit there early morning. In this tour, you can enjoy bamboo grove, morning coffee at a Japanese style coffee shop and beautiful river and mountains scenery from a wooden bridge. After that, why don't you try 'washoku', or Japanese cuisine and maiko, or cute apprentice geisha's dancing? My special early morning tour will give you wonderful and unforgettable memories in Japan!!

Koto Lesson in Nijo,Kyoto
Let's learn Japanese instrument Koto at cozy Kyo-machiya house! Koto, Japanese traditional instrument, seems difficult to play and try for beginners. However, at Soushunan, the lesson by the professional instructor enables you to play one song in 80min.

Hear the Hidden Sounds of Demachiyanagi • Sound Walk
Kyoto rewards those who listen. From a classic shōtengai (covered shopping street) to sacred forest, we use professional microphones to capture everyday city textures and quiet shrine atmospheres. I’ll show you simple recording methods, then edit your sounds into a personal 'audio postcard' after the walk. Curious about pace, group size, or timing? Message me and we’ll shape it together.
