What You’ll Do
Step into the heart of Japan’s ancient capital with our Kyoto in a Day tour — a perfect mix of iconic sights and off-the-beaten-path discoveries 🌿⛩️
From centuries-old temples to peaceful gardens and tucked-away teahouses, this tour is all about soaking in the timeless beauty of Kyoto, while also seeing a few hidden gems most visitors miss.
We’ll start the day in Arashiyama, wandering through its dreamy bamboo forest and visiting the famous Tenryu-ji Temple. Then it’s on to a charming traditional district where time feels like it’s standing still.
Midday, we’ll pause for a local lunch and recharge before heading to the vibrant Fushimi Inari Shrine — yes, the one with the iconic red torii gates. After that, we’ll visit a hidden Zen temple tucked away from the crowds, perfect for a moment of calm.
To wrap things up, we’ll head to a scenic viewpoint to take in the city’s beauty and maybe even catch the golden hour glow. It’s Kyoto in a day — rich in culture, calm, and a few surprises along the way 🌅
