Kyoto to Arashiyama Day Trip - Private & Personalized

Take a short tram ride from Kyoto and become immersed in the scenic Arashiyama. Embark on a tour of the site where the imperial family held retreats and marvel at majestic rivers and leafy peaks. Cruise on a rowing boat, discover an ancient temple, and explore the lush bamboo forest.

Explore Tenryū-ji Temple and its unchanged garden from centuries ago and exit into the seemingly endless, emerald-glowing Bamboo Grove, winding dreamily uphill. You could walk across the glittering Katsura River and spy excited macaques at the Arashiyama Monkey Park, or you could wander between Zen temples, breathing in the fragrant air, and celebrate the spirit of ancient Japan.

The bamboo forest might be the main reason to visit Arashiyama, but with a host, you can see (and do) so much more. Rent a boat in the pristine lower Hozu-gawa area, row down the river between lush green mountains, or hike up mountains to see the cityscape from a scenic lookout point.
Your itinerary will be fully personalized according to your preferences. Once you’ve booked, someone from the local partner's team will be in touch, so just let them know if you have any special requirements.
