Overview
  • ~Perfect one day tour visiting Principal attractions in Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan~
  • If you can only stay in Kyoto for one day, don't worry! I will take you to the best places to see and feel the essence of Japan.
  • On this tour, we will take you on a one-day tour of Kyoto's "highlights" and talk a lot about Japanese culture, including the seasonal customs and traditions of the people who preserve them, as well as the historic tea ceremony.
  • I am a local and have practiced the tea ceremony for many years, so I can explain the beauty of Japan and its traditions from two aspects: traditional beauty and practical beauty.
  • You can learn a lot about Kyoto and Japan in one day while enjoying the authentic beauty of each spot.
  • For example, by visiting both a Buddist temple and a Shinto shrine, you will also learn why the Japanese have two different religions. The tour ends in Gion, where you will also learn about geisha, an essential part of Kyoto.
  • This tour includes two World Heritage Sites, Kinkaku-ji Temple
