Hello there! I'm Yuta, your go-to guide and local host in the enchanting city of Kyoto. I have a deep-rooted love for this historic city, especially its picturesque old city scenery found in quaint alleys and the rich mix of food and drink culture. My perfect day? That's easy! I adore wandering into cozy izakayas, those charming local restaurants where I can savor a delightful meal and enjoy a drink or two. And, of course, no day is complete without a visit to one of our majestic temples, where the echoes of history resonate through their ancient walls. As for my expertise, I pride myself on knowing Kyoto inside out. From Shijo to Gion, Kiyamachi to Pontocho, Fushimi to the bustling Kyoto station area, I'm your man! So, are you ready to explore Kyoto with a local who can turn every stone into a story? Let's make your trip unforgettable!
