We could not have had a better guide as Ceci. She gave us a very complete and comprehensive all over Kyoto. It was a walking tour and we used taxi and public transportation to go to the attractions. I think that 8 hr tour gave us a very wide insight of the city. The best part of our tour was the pleasant companion of Ceci. Totally recommended.
