Kyoto - A Day to Remember - I am in Kyoto for business meetings and splurged on a one-day guided tour to see as much as possible. Jose is a wonderful guide - it was a pleasure to get to know him on a personal level and get a bit of first-person insight into "a day in the life" here. I learned a lot about Kyoto's history, not to mention the confidence builder of navigating public transportation with a "pro." The Japanese people are hospitable and friendly and it would be amazing to see Kyoto during cherry blossom season or fall. (August weather is very hot and humid!)

Fantastic three-day experience of Kyoto, Nara and Osaka. Thank you Jose David! - We have been fortunate to have Jose David as Guide for our tours to Kyoto, Nara and Osaka. We are a family of 6 and our Guide has perfectly prepared the daily journeys and also catered to our needs or suggestions. We have visited the main Attraction Points, by bus, subway and train and your comments have helped us to put ourselves in context both of each place and of Japanese culture. Gracias Kyoto Daily Tours, gracias José David!

A great family day in Kyoto - We did a private taxi tour with our guide Tad. It was a fantastic way to see Kyoto. Tad worked with us to set up an itinerary and was highly knowledgeable on every location we visited. Highly recommended

I recommend this tour and of course Esteban - The quality of the guide and how well organized everything was it Steban our guide gave us details of each place we visited An extraordinary experience.

Multigenerational Family Tour - Our Kyoto tour guide Tad was kind, patient and knowledgeable. We saw all the essential sites of Kyoto over two days as a group of 9 ranging in age from 2 to 78 yo. The tour was the highlight of our visit to Japan!

Adria san is awesome! - Adria san was awesome. We literally did everything in Kyoto, from walking to various sites, taking the train, riding the bus...it was neat to discover different sites the local way. He took us to areas were there was not a lot of people, which was nice. He was very knowledgeable about the history of Kyoto and wanted to make sure we could see as much as we can. Honestly, it is hard to do a walking tour of the entire city of Kyoto in just 1 day. I wish we had broken it up in 2 days as I think it would give us a better experience. We will keep this in mind the next time. Doing a private tour is the way to go. I love the personal interaction we had with Adria and getting his perspective not being from Japan. Thank you Adria san for taking us around, we really had a lot of fun with you. Hope to see you again.

Ask for Tad! - I highly highly highly recommend Kyoto Daily Tours, specifically Mr. Tadashi (Tad). We were very lucky to have Tad as our tour guide for the day in Kyoto. He is very knowledgeable about every site that we went to. He was also very kind and patient with my three little children! He also knew the best place to have lunch, an authentic Japanese cuisine location with a beautiful garden and delicious food. It was soooo good, that My five year old and nine year old wanted to go back to the restaurant for dinner! Tad took pictures of us at all the good spots that captured rhe beauty of each site and took video clips of us there, and at the end, he created a beautiful video of us and our tour ❤️ 😀. The tour was worth every single yen 💴 ❤️. I decided last minute to surprise my husband to a day tour of Kyoto for Father's day and made a request at 2am. By 7am I received a call and message that they had an available guide for us. Shortly after, I received an email from Tad. He is an amazing tour guide and a beautiful person as a whole. My kids love Tad and ask about him everyday we were in Japan. I wish we could've had an extra day with him to explore more of Kyoto, but he had an arrangement already for the next day. If you plan on visiting Kyoto, I highly recommend Kyoto Daily Tours, specifically Tad, to take you on the tours, and do 2 days with him! We love Tad!!! Thank you so much for teaching us about Kyoto, giving us inside scoops of each site, even showing us a hidden bamboo Forrest! Doomo arrigato gozaimasu, Tad!!! Tad is so very passionate about what he does and this is hard to find nowadays. It was very touching that we were able to learn so much from Tad about Kyoto and each historic site we went to. We have a deeper appreciation and love for Kyoto and it has become our favorite place out of all the places we have been to in Japan. Big love to Kyoto Daily Tours for your wonderful service and people!

Great Kyoto tour - Great tour! Our guide, Esteban, was terrific. Packed a lot into the day, customized the tour for our family, and gave us good tips and history. Highly recommend!

Perfect Private Tour - Our tour guide, Jose David Santoir, taught us so much about Kyoto!! There were 6 of us and we were able to experience more than I thought we could in a day. We used the metro to go to the sites. Jose took us to the popular sites that we had requested and the quiet sites we did not know about-my favorite was the gardens! We did a lot of walking and saw more in this one day that we saw our full trip! Highly recommend this tour and Jose!

Great guide! - Brian was awesome! This hit the highlights and allowed us to set the pace. Excellent tour. Would book again.
