Highly Recommended! - This was the PERFECT tour! Fushimi Inari was one of my places that I had on my bucket list and place that I had to visit in Kyoto. What made this experience more exciting was our wonderful Tour Guide. She provided us with excellent historical backgrounds, interesting facts about this sight, as well as answering all the questions we had. In the end, she also provided us with wonderful recommendation of where we should get our dinner at! I highly recommend you to do this Tour!

Fantastic tour of a beautiful shrine - This was an amazing tour! Soichiro is a great guide, very knowledgeable and engaging. We were so glad to have booked this tour, as we were able to understand the shrine so much better than if we had just walked around on our own. I highly recommend it!

Thank you Santa - We were in Tokyo the morning of this tour, hopped on the shinkansen and arrived to Kyoto and did this tour. We were quite tired from the shinkansen but we didn't do too much walking so it wasn't tiring at all. Our guide Santa kept us all engaged (Our group had about 10 people) He is very professional and we appreciate his expertise. Thank you so much Santa

Above and beyond our expectations - I went on this tour with my wife and this tour was fantastic! We had a young gentleman, Santa as our guide and his hospitality, knowledge, passion for Kyoto was above our expectations. We could tell that he truly loves explaining the sites to tourists and teaching us the culture of Japan. I would recommend this to anyone visiting Japan
