Description

Walk the streets of Kyoto with our knowledgeable guide. You will not just see, but experience the history and life of this historical city.

Start the tour at Kiyomizu Temple,

Nearby we can find Yasaka Shrine, also known as Gion shrine.
Our guide will explain about the Shinto religion, and the importance of the shrine and its yearly festival. The tour will end here and you have many shopping and restaurant options nearby to explore on your own.

Enjoy the picturesque streets of the famous entertainment district of Gion and
learn about traditional Kyoto architecture and the Geisha. With some
luck you can catch a glimpse of the Geisha as they walk between
tea-houses.

Finally, enjoy a stroll through Nishiki Market.
The shopping arcade locally known as "Kyoto's Kitchen" has been around for hundreds of years, and recently it has become a very popular place to visit and try interesting food and snacks. The shop owners are inviting and some even offer free samples. Try some of the delicious items on display here!
