Full Description
Unscripted Kyoto Tours
This is not your average tour. With us, you’ll get a fully personalized, unscripted walking experience that reflects your preferences and curiosity. Discover the world-famous cultural, spiritual, and historical essence of Kyoto while walking its picturesque streets and visiting hidden treasures.
We have lived here for years and are excited to show you Kyoto’s charm, history, and hospitality—beyond the tourist path.
How It Works
After booking, you’ll fill out a short survey about your interests, expectations, and travel pace. You’ll also choose the tour length (3 hours, 5 hours, or 8 hours) and your preferred meeting point from the following:
- Your accommodation in Kyoto
- Disney Store in Downtown Kyoto
- Starbucks at Sanjo-Ohashi Bridge
At the meeting point, we’ll have a quick 5-minute chat to finalize the plan, then start your walking adventure.
Expect a lot of walking, storytelling, sightseeing, and opportunities for amazing photos. Whether you’re interested in off-the-beaten-path neighborhoods or iconic temples like Fushimi Inari or Kiyomizu-dera, we’ll make your time in Kyoto unforgettable.
Why Choose Us?
We’re not just guides—we’re passionate locals who fell in love with Kyoto. We’ve spent years discovering its secrets, and now we want to share them with you.
Expect genuine recommendations for:
- Local mom-and-pop restaurants
- Hidden shrines and alleyways
- Cultural etiquette and historical background
- Activities that most tourists miss
You’ll get real Kyoto, not just the surface-level experience.
The tour ends wherever you choose:
- Same as the meeting point
- Any location discussed before the tour
- A destination you reach during the tour (e.g. Nijo Castle, Fushimi Inari, etc.)
Pricing
From ¥11,386 per group (up to 1 person)

Reviews
Jose was great! He has lived in Kyoto for years, so he is very knowledgeable on the city’s history, culture, and neighborhoods. I wanted to hike the outskirts, so we started at Chion-in Temple and made our way through the Kyoto trail to the mountain top. Fantastic experience.
Jose is a wonderful person and a very experienced guide. I highly recommend him. Try the 4-hour tour starting at 5 PM—Kyoto during sunset is simply magical.
It was a lovely day with a lot of fun! Thank you so much Jose!
