Amazing Kyoto Tour

cand778, May 2026

Our tour guide Milos was great! It felt like a friend showing us around the city. He knew a lot about the history of the city, temples, shrines and Japan in general. He showed us his local spots which more value to the tour. The length of the tour was about 7hrs which was enough for us.

Clntrate a guide if you want to learn from the culture

Kyoto made easy

carlyhW6336LR, Apr 2026

We just spent the day with Tad today which exceeded our expectations. He was a delight to spend the day with, could not have been more helpful. Travelling with my 2 boys and husband in a wheelchair (paraplegic). Van had a chair which electrically came out allowing transfer into the vehicle so easy. We chose locations we knew in a wheelchair would be a challenge and Tad made it simple for us. It to mention he had all the photo skills. Cannot recommend enough for any family. Thankyou so much
