Hey there! I'm Ai, your friendly neighborhood host here in enchanting Kyoto! One of my absolute joys is exploring Kyoto's hidden gems, from cozy cafes tucked away in Gion to serene temples nestled amidst the bamboo forests. And let's not forget about the rivers! There's something magical about the Kamogawa and Uji rivers. You'll often find me at the local cinema, indulging in the intimate atmosphere and passion for film that sets Kyoto apart. I've dived deep into the city's art, music, and fine-tasting scene, making connections along the way. Fun fact about me, I'm a bit of a sword fighter. It's true! So, whether you're craving a soulful temple experience or a cinematic adventure, count on me to take you through the wonders of Kyoto. Let's create memories as vibrant and beautiful as the city itself!
Ai was a great host from start to finish on what was a very warm day in Kyoto. She took great care of us in the heat and gave us salt tablets to keep us hydrated. She was attentive and informative throughout. We loved visiting the fabric dying museum in Arashimaya where it was so calm and peaceful. Going to Arashimaya first also meant we missed the busiest periods in Kyoto’s streets and they were much calmer in the afternoon. We felt this was a great touch. Ai really understood that we wanted to avoid crowded tourist traps and adjusted the itinerary for this.
