“An amazing day where you can really maximize your time is the city. We got to see 5 of the big highlights in Kyoto, as well as lots of day-to-day life as we biked along. Really wonderful. And our guide Kes provided so much wonderful information and also took lots of photos for us! Great experience, definitely recommend.”

“We had so much fun! We saw so much of Kyoto on this tour. We biked 20 miles and walked 14,000 steps, which was a lot and got tiring by the end. We’re still exhausted a day later. But our guide was enthusiastic and we saw so much of the Read more”

“Andy and his team is excellent. You would be in great hands if you get them as your tour guides. On your tour”

“We love this tour. Exceeded our expectations for the price. Our tour guide, Montse, spoke English and Spanish well and was very knowledgeable. We were given plenty of information and free time to roam around at each destinations. The bus was clean and comfortable and took us straight to the destinations. We recommend this tour.”

“We had a wonderful day trip, thanks to our friendly and knowledgeable driver and guide, Riku. We visited Nara and Arashiyama. He was very accommodating of our itinerary with our children (4 & 7 years old) and suggested great activities and explained interesting facts for us all.”

“Most touching part of Japan trip! This is third of our trip with viator and they arranged this one uniquely.Miyajima was fantastic and Hiroshima....unforgettable. Tour guide was good.We came back with long itched memories.”

“Shohei was a great driver (10/10 parking skills in challenging tight spaces, lol). It was wonderful to be able to hit so many destinations in one day with a private guide. It was super hot when we went, so it was also great to be able to have A/C breaks in the car between sites. Shohei was also graciously accommodating of making several stops to look at ceramic shops since we finished our tour a bit early. Thank you Shohei - we had a terrific day with you!”

“From start to finish, Indra provided an unforgettable experience. From the bamboo forest to multiple temple we visited, Indra’s itinerary was amazing. The great conversations about his perspective and experience living in Japan were so helpful. Along the way, we encountered many tour guides and it wasn’t hard to notice how much better Indra was. Highly recommend!”

“We had an absolutely fabulous day. Guide was funny, extremely knowledgeable and considerate. We saw the best of Kyoto plus some places and paths off the tourist route. Thoroughly recommend. No better way to see Kyoto and gain an understanding of the history and beauty.”

“Great intro to Kyoto, happy to see so much in one day. Karl was a fun guide and very knowledgeable. Loved the lunch place Karl brought us to, ramen with a special duck broth, very tasty. I was worried about not being on an e-Bike, but the city was very flat and easy to manage on a regular bike. Would definitely recommend this tour.”

“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…”

“I wouldn't so much call him a tour guide as he didn't talk about Kyoto or Japanese history with us. But he did take us around to places we wanted to go, and he knew the best sites to see and how to get there. Van was comfortable and he accommodated our luggage which we had with us. He didn't give accurate directions on where to meet, but we were able to meet up with him after some back and forth. Overall, for the price, it was a good option for a small group to see the sites of Kyoto without having to hail multiple taxis or depend on public…”

“Eko was outstanding! Kind, friendly, knowledgeable, and completely accommodating to our wish list of sites to see. Our first personal tour experience, and we will do nothing else in the future.”

“Since we only had one day to visit Kyoto this tour was perfect for us. We got to see a lot more in one day than we would have on our own. We also liked the fact that we were given plenty of time at each destination to explore on our own.”

“Great way to see Kyoto sites. Some areas are crowded but majority of ride is through less busy areas. Jaime was very friendly and knowledgeable. Lunch was great also. It is definitely a full day that we enjoyed. We will rest well tonight.”
