Amazing Kyoto Uji Matcha Morning Tour - Very good value! Got to see Byodoin Temple and Ujigami Shrien. My tour guide shoichiro was very infomative and quite in depth when explaining the cultural significance of both locations. I wont spoil it here, so you can ask them! On the way are heaps of matcha places also, so you can browse those to take home!
