If you want to experience the important sights to see on your visit to Koyoto then I highly recommend this tour. Milo our guide is not only a local but his knowledge is quite unbelievable. This added greatly to the day. Not only taking us to places of interest but his conversation on route to the next place of interest really adds that special touch to your day. From our initial booking he reached out with ab itinerary of which he can alter to your requirements. This we did without any issue. He also provide us with some restaurant recommendations of which we used whilst in Kyoto and these also were great places we would never of found. Thank you Milo for the great day.

This was a fantastic experience. Our guide, Milo, was very knowledgeable and tailored the experience to our interests. It was the perfect way to start off our few days in Kyoto! We were able to walk all around the city and see many historical sights in a relatively short time. Throughout the tour he was engaging and shared many interesting bits of historical context to compliment the beautiful scenery!
