Full day private guide and driver service in Kyoto
Kyoto's sights are very spread out, but private guide and driver will help you see the very best of the city.
Kyoto City is much larger than many people imagine and the best temples and shrines are scattered around the city's perimeter in the foothills of the mountains. Having a private guide and driver to take you on a day's sightseeing tour can really help you get the most out of your time in Kyoto without having to battle the public transport.
It's impossible to see everything in Kyoto (you would need years to visit all 1,600 temples!) but a guide can help you explore some of the best, taking into account the weather, season and how busy the city might be. Please let us know your interests in advance and the guide can take this into account; why not see the bamboo groves in Arashiyama, try the weird and wonderful ingredients at Nishiki food market or browse an antique market beneath the Toji Temple pagoda.
