Discover the Spectacular Western Kyoto in 6 Hours!

Our tour begins with a short train ride to Arashiyama, a district full of natural beauty and aesthetic charm. There, we will explore the famous bamboo grove, where towering bamboo stalks create a serene and magical atmosphere.

 

Next, we take a taxi to Ryoan-ji Temple, home to Japan’s most famous Zen rock garden—a place of tranquility and contemplation. We then visit the stunning Golden Pavilion (Kinkaku-ji), whose golden facade reflects beautifully in the surrounding pond and gardens.

 

To round off the tour, we explore a lesser-known yet equally captivating part of Kyoto. Here, you’ll discover a beautiful shrine and the city's oldest Geisha district, which still preserves its traditional charm.

The tour concludes in downtown Kyoto—where exactly is up to you!
