Great tour with knowledgeable tour guide - We enjoyed the Fushimi Inari Taisha night walking tour very much! We received communications before the tour with detailed instructions, which made it smooth to arrive at the meeting point. The tour is fun and informative. Caleb is very knowledgeable and shared helpful cultural information and interesting historical facts. The shrine is quiet and peaceful at night and we love the little hike. We will recommend this tour to our family and friends if they visit Kyoto in the future!

A magical experience - This was an amazing experience! Our guide Vincent shared so many interesting details and gave helpful tips! It was fun and dynamic! Evening time is a great idea to visit to avoid crowds and have this almost private experience.

Vincent makes the magic! - Vincent was passionate about the shrine and this made the tour engaging from start to finish. He’s polite and communicated individually and at a group level with ease. It’s most probably the best time to see the shrine, lit up and magical. Best tour guide this trip. Thanks

Perfect night tour - The night tour was perfect. Much fewer people than the daytime and it’s so pretty at night with the lights. We didn’t climb all the way around which my knees were happy with, it was a nice easy tour to see all the main parts. The guide Hiro was very knowledgeable and friendly. It’s nice to have a guide that seems to love his job and city. Would definitely recommend this tour to anyone.

Fushimi Inari Night Tour - It was a tour for foreigners, but we had a guide who spoke just Japanese and was able to translate in Japanese, so it was a lot of fun!

Great way to see the shrines at night! - Vincent was fantastic! A Kyoto local who knows the history and all sorts of little facts you might not get if you walked through on your own. The night tour itself was fantastic bc there were no crowds! Definitely recommend both Vincent and this specific tour!

Great tour, fantastic guide! - What a great tour! A beautiful shrine that looks even more magical at night. So much to see and so much history on these beautiful grounds. Vincent, our guide, was AMAZING. He was extremely knowledgeable, kind, funny and personable. He made the tour that much better. Highly recommend the night tour, as the lights on the gates and shrines were just magnificent, as well as it not being very busy at all (Vincent said it gets VERY busy during the day). Great time!
