Kyoto Tour
The old capital’s greatest hits — golden pavilion, torii tunnels, bamboo, and geisha lanes.
A thousand years of temples, shrines, and craft — Kyoto is Japan at its most beautiful. We start early to reach the icons before the crowds and keep the day flowing between them.

How the day feels.
An early start is the secret to Kyoto — you’ll see the famous sights with room to breathe.
A rich mix of temples, shrines, markets, and old streets; we balance the day so it never feels like a checklist.
Highly flexible — we run several Kyoto routes (samurai/ninja experiences, a tea ceremony, the MiPig café, Sanjūsangen-dō) and tailor to your interests.

Questions, answered plainly.
There seem to be many Kyoto routes — which do we get?
Kyoto has more must-sees than fit in a day, so we plan the route with you. Some families want temples and torii; others add a samurai/ninja experience, a tea ceremony, or the MiPig café. The sample here is a classic first visit.
What does the price cover?
The price is per private vehicle for the day — your driver, fuel, and door-to-door transport. Entrance tickets, meals, and optional experiences are additional and easy to arrange.
Is it suitable for seniors and young children?
Yes. Because the car stays with you all day, there are no long walks between train lines — you rest between stops, and we keep the pace gentle.
