We booked a full day tour with local guide Kaori and we loved the experience! She was very well prepared and had already discussed with us what we would like to visit before the tour started. She had made a good program so we could see a lot of Kyoto without having to rush from one site to another. We visited Kinkakuji temple (the Golden pavilion), Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, Fushimi Inari shrine !Thousands of Shinto gates) and Gion where Kaori gave us extra information on Japanese history and tradition. At noon we had lunch in a traditional Japanese restaurant, sitting on the floor. Very nice experience and very good choice of her! At the end of tour she gave us some tips on other things to do/visit in Kyoto and even arranged a taxi for us. We were very happy to have booked this tour and would like to thank Kaori again for the wonderfull experience!

Excellent private tour of Kyoto with Akiko

We had a really good tour with Akiko in Kyoto. Akiko had very good english and was very friendly. She took us to the main highlights of Kyoto and was very informative. The pace of the tour was also very good as we did not want to be rushed. We really liked the walk through Gion district and the visit to the Golden Palace. We would hghily recommend a private tour with Akiko to get a good sense of Kyoto at the beginning of your stay.

Nuestra experiencia con este sistema fue muy bueno, ya que viajamos en familia y nos gusta tomar tour privados para poder ir a nuestro ritmo. Nuestra guia en Kyoto fue AKIKO, excelente persona, muy simpatica, con bastante paciencia para esperarnos, ayudarnos y absolver todas nuestras consultas. Nos mostró varios lugares muy interesantes, inclusive estuvo con nosotros mas de la hora programada, a pesar de tener un familiar en el hospital, lo que apreciamos mucho y esperamos se haya recuperado. Nos encantó el barrio de Gion y tuvimos la suerte de poder ver algunas Geykos y Mayko. Toda una experiencia fabulosa!!! Muchas gracias Akiko!!
