An experienced guide helped me took in the beauty and culture Kyoto has to offer. - I’m so glad I booked this tour through TripAdvisor. We had a wonderful experience last time when we visited Barcelona too. My guide today was Indra. He has a lot of experience, showing me where to take the money shots, how to avoid the crowds ( there were crowds EVERYWHERE!!!) we also talked in depth about Kyoto/Japan’s history, economy and culture. Kyoto is a beautiful city, but I wouldn’t recommend anyone who doesn’t read or speak Japanese to travel alone here. Without India’s help I would be completely lost. The signage here has a lot of room for improvement. But with Indra’s help I got to experience the rich history and the beautiful scenery this city offered. I highly recommend a small group for a more immersive and tailored experience. And I can’t recommend enough our guide today- Indra. Thanks, TripAdvisor!
