Perfect morning in Kyoto - We loved touring Gion and Niahiki Market in particular! We leaned a lot of local history and current events in Kyoto.

A few hours in Kyoto! - We had just one day in Kyoto so we decided to hire a guide in order to make the most of it. Nehal was very good in explaining everything, he was very calm and kind. He took us around Kyoto to see Shrines and Temples. We walked through the old Kyoto and the geisha district. We were with our kids who got a bit tired so he adapted to our needs and suggested somewhere to sit and have a drink. It’s really a personalized experience so you can choose what you want to see , what you want to avoid and how quick you want to walk. We were all really happy that we got to see so many things in a few hours. I highly recommend it .

Very enjoyable and informative - Daus was a wonderful and generous guide and very knowledgeable. Well worth paying for. He even stayed with us extra as we took longer than expected to see everything. We were able to let him choose the best itinerary and make sure we saw many beautiful sights.

Perfect Day in Kyoto - We spent a perfect day In Kyoto with Airi as our guide. Her English fluency was excellent which made communicating with and learning from her very easy and enjoyable. She took us through Ginkakuji, Gion and Nishiki market, and shared her local knowledge of the shops and food stalls. Everyone in our family had a wonderful time, and we’re already looking forward to our next visit to Kyoto and spending more time with Airi!
