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.
