Full description

This is a 10-hour experience from Kyoto, built around Bus/coach, Amanohashidate and Chionji Temple. It is run by JHT HOLIDAY TRAVEL, an operator we book with directly rather than through a reseller, which is why we can hold your place with them before we treat your booking as final.

Kyoto was Japan's capital for over a thousand years until 1868 and has 17 UNESCO-listed sites among some 2,000 temples and shrines. The big three are Kinkaku-ji, the Golden Pavilion, covered in gold leaf and best in morning light; Kiyomizu-dera, the wooden stage on the eastern hills with the Higashiyama lanes of Sannenzaka and Ninenzaka below it; and Fushimi Inari's gates. Nijo Castle has the nightingale floors that squeak against intruders, and Ryoan-ji the rock garden. Temples open around 8:00 or 9:00 and close at 17:00, and the city bus is slow; a day with a driver or a guide who orders the stops against the crowds is the difference between four sights and seven.

The price covers Enjoy the “Flying Dragon View” overlooking Amanohashidate, Explore Ine Funaya and This package does not include the cable car or the Ine. It does not cover Meals, so budget for those separately. Everything included is listed in full on this page; if something is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.

JHT HOLIDAY TRAVEL sends the meeting point and time by email as soon as the booking is confirmed. We need at least one day's notice, and we confirm the date with JHT HOLIDAY TRAVEL before treating your booking as final. If they cannot take your date we tell you and refund you rather than leave you waiting.

Everything I have to say about the tour is positive. I’ll start by talking about Jey, our guide he was communicative, funny, and very patient. The tour is incredibly complete ; they take you to all the most important sites and give you plenty of time to eat (I recommend the restaurant Monju—the food is delicious, authentic, and affordable). This is a fantastic tour—don't miss out on it. It is well worth it.

It was good, but the time in Ine no funaya was too short and we arrived late in the afternoon so a lot of cafes and places were closing. I would recommend to start the tour in Ine and spend most of the time there because the first location is not that interesting.

In Iné auf das Schiff ist eine hute Gelegenheit, um das Dorf zu betrachten. Allerdings war das kaum möglich durch dad Füttern der Möwen und schwarzen Milane. Ich würde das nächste Mal ein kleineres Boot ohne Fütterung nehmen. Jay war ein guter Guide, sprach allerdings etwas schnell und war so nicht einfach zu verstehen. Die Fahrt war gut organisiert, pünktlich und die Kommunikation tadellos

The overall one-day tour experience was excellent. The itinerary was well organized, the guide’s explanations were detailed and informative, and the coach ride was smooth and comfortable. Overall, it was a very satisfying experience and highly recommended.

Late March to early April for cherry blossom, or mid-to-late November for peak autumn foliage. Kyoto sits in a basin and runs hotter in summer and colder in winter than Tokyo, even at a similar latitude. Full month-by-month figures are in our best time to visit Kyoto guide.
Kyoto never built an extensive subway — just two lines (Karasuma and Tozai) — so the city bus network does most of the work, especially for Higashiyama, Kinkaku-ji and Ginkakuji. Fushimi Inari and Arashiyama are best reached by JR rail instead. See getting around Kyoto.
Three days covers the essentials well: a day for Higashiyama and Gion, a day for Arashiyama and Kinkaku-ji, and a day for Fushimi Inari plus a Nara or Uji day trip. Our 3-day Kyoto itinerary has the full route with timing.
Arrive by 6:30-7am — the shrine is open 24/7 and free, and most visitors only walk the first 20-30 minutes anyway. Past that point the crowds thin out fast. Full hike details in our Fushimi Inari guide.
Yes — it's a public path with no entrance fee and no set hours. The trade-off is that it gets shoulder-to-shoulder by mid-morning; arrive before 8am for a nearly empty walk. See the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest guide.
Kyoto restricts photography on certain private alleys in Gion after complaints about tourists chasing and blocking geiko and maiko, with fines for violators. Public streets like Hanamikoji-dori remain open, but never chase, touch or block a real geiko/maiko anywhere. Full etiquette in our Gion geisha district guide.
Yudofu (simmered tofu, best near Nanzen-ji or Arashiyama), kaiseki and shojin ryori temple cuisine, and Nishiki Market's stalls of tako tamago and fresh yuba. Uji, just south of the city, is one of Japan's top matcha-growing regions. See the Kyoto food guide.
