Great tour for first time visitors - Our day tour of Kyoto with Yukari was absolutely fantastic and exceeded all expectations. From the moment we met, she was warm, friendly, and incredibly knowledgeable about Kyoto's history and culture. My son, who is 10 years old, got tired pretty quickly from visiting the temples. She updated the plan for the day with activities more attractive for him, and he had a memorable time. He particularly loved the Nintendo store and the sushi train restaurant. Overall, I highly recommend this tour if you are overwhelmed with all the activities and don’t know where to start.

Perfect Kyoto by Keiko - The warm manner Keiko is explained every site. Also she was very kind with our children as we made it through the 6 site in ease and with adequate time for lunch and breaks.

Great tour - A very convenient way to tour Kyoto with a private van and guide. Especially if you have elders or young children to get around one site to another and customize the pace. The driver would drop off / pick up at the entrance with the guide coordinating on the time.

Excellent day around Kyoto! One of the best experiences we’ve had - Keiko is such a great guide and a very genuine and warm person. She showed us so many great sites and took great care of us the whole day. We visited the Fushimi Inari Shrine, Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, the Kinkaku-ji Temple (Golden Pavilion) and did a walk in Kyoto city stopping in Gion. Keiko was also not being bound to ending the tour at a certain time, which gave us some extra room to see Kyoto city at the end of the day. We agreed with the agency not to use the private car upfront, and traveled by public transportation and taxi - which was a great mix for us traveling with a 2 year old.

Great tour in Kyoto with a great guide and driver - The tour was just exceptional. Hira, our guide, was very knowledgable and kind, well-arranged the itinerary and was great to choose the places we need to see in one day. The car hiring made the tour much easier and enabled us to make so many visits within a day. Highly recommended.
