Complete Tour of Kyoto

At the designated time, we'll meet at the Keihan Kyoto Hotel to begin our tour. We'll hop on a bus to the bamboo forest of Arashiyama, known for its tall canes and tranquil atmosphere. You will experience the peacefulness of this forest.

Next, we'll visit Kinkaku-ji, the "Temple of the Golden Pavilion," notable for its golden structure and reflection in the lake. Our subsequent stop will be at Nij? Castle, where we will explore the tatami rooms and discuss the shogunate, which was a military government in the Middle Ages.

Continuing, we will visit the Kiyomizu-dera Temple, recognized for its wooden terrace offering scenic views. Afterward, you can grab some lunch in the temple area. We will proceed to Fushimi Inari-taisha, a shrine famous for its thousands of red torii gates that create tunnels along the mountain.

This walking experience will conclude our complete tour of Kyoto. Lastly, we'll stop for another meal before returning to the meeting point, marking the end of this 10-hour and 45-minute tour.
