Kyoto has many traditional aspects but also it has beautiful and kawaii (lovely) charm.
Traditional shrines and temples, cafes, book stores, music, knick-knack stores, pastries... There are many things I love and you will love in Kyoto.
I would like to offer tours to popular tourist attractions but I would like to take our guests other places we locals go and show more deep inside if this mysterious closed city of Kyoto. We know more shrines and temples which are worth visiting and nice cafes and shops. As I like craft, art, music, book, cafes, etc,,, I can introduce those cultural aspects for guests also.

Depending on your interests, I’ll provide many different types of tours such as cycling tours, tea ceremony experiences,cooking, tours of Nishiki market and Gion, visiting Sake brewery for tasting as well as sightseeing spots.

Looking forward to being your guide.
