Great Tour around Kyoto with the best tour guides - Amazing tour around Kyoto! The guides were very informative and attentive to the group! I recommend you take the tour as early as posible in the day as less people will be around. I can’t stress enough how good the guides were i injured my foot a day before and i was afraid to set everyone back but the tour guide made sure i was good walking at a pace were everyone was comfortable, very understanding and patient. Take the tour! No doubt!

Highly recommended! - A big thanks to Hiro for making our journey around Kyoto a lot easier and more informative than if we had gone by ourselves! He gave us tons of info and insight into regular life in Kyoto and Japan.

Great tour with Haruka - We went on the early morning tour of Kyoto with Haruka and had a great time with the group and the guide. Haruka is a very knowledgeable and entertaining guide, always ready to help with any advice on anything related to Kyoto. Taking in account that all major tourist sights and attractions are widely spread, the concept of a guided tour using public transportation (trains, subway and buses) is very practical and convenient.

Best way to spend a morning in Kyoto - Kotaro and Aoi were fantastic guides. Kotaro had very good knowledge of the history & cultural significance of each site. Both Kotaro and Aoi were great fun to talk to while taking us around which made the tour more enjoyable. They were also happy to share ideas of where to visit after the tour. Having guides was quite helpful as was my first time in Kyoto. We took the local trains, buses and the subway a few times to find the fastest routes which would otherwise have been hard to navigate. The timing in the morning was also great to beat the heat and crowds, especially in the summer. Richard

KYOTO EARLY MORNING TOUR - I had such a great time. Haruka was a fantastic guide, who made the whole experience one of the best times I've had when travelling. I would and will highly recommend her to friends, who are travelling to Japan in the near future.

Good comprehensive Kyoto tour - Very good your company. My guide, Kotaro, was excellent. His English is very good and he was also very helpful in providing additional information for me. This is a good tour of Kyoto's highlights. It would be difficult to navigate without a guide due to the logistics. Highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Kyoto.

Really good comprehensive tour - This is a really good tour of three of Kyoto’s main highlights. There is quite a bit of logistics involved with train, subway & bus to the three different sights and I do not believe it would be easily doable on your own. This is a good tour company and our guide Kotaro was excellent. His English is very good and he was extremely helpful in assisting with additional information. Highly recommend this tour if you are going to Kyoto.

A great tour and tour guide! - Moeka was a superb guide - friendly, knowledgeable, and patient with our group. She provided a fantastic experience as we made our way around these three sites, and made the day both fun and educational for all. For those that require an English speaking guide, Moeka’s language skills were excellent. This is a great tour that I highly recommend taking!

Great way to enjoy beautiful Kyoto - Fantastic tour of some highlights of Kyoto, despite some rainy weather. Tommy was an exceptional guide, sharing lots of interesting details and insider knowledge and connecting in a warm way with my kids. He also did a great job of communicating prior to the tour to ensure everyone knew where to meet, and as an added bonus shared some restaurant recommendations for afterwards. Highly recommend exploring Kyoto with Tommy!
