Half Day Private Walking Tour of Kyoto - The half tour historical walking tour of Kyoto is a great way to quickly see some of the most important sites in Kyoto. Our guide Julian knew his stuff and was passionate about the history of Kyoto. It’s nice to be able to walk the city with a local at the beginning of your visit. The private tour is not much more expensive than taking a larger public tour for a family of four so it is a good value.

Super Tour Guide - He was a wonderful tour guide and explained the history and importance of the temples and shrines. His English was terrific and he was very knowledgeable. His selection of sites and our routes on the train, walking and cab were well thought out.

Great tour of Kyoto. - Riccardo did a great job as our guide showing us Kyoto. He has very good knowledge of the history and culture of Kyoto. He ensured that the tour went at our pace (being four older people ) and adapted it to places we were interested to see. I recommend this tour as a great introduction to Kyoto.

Short and sweet - Great tour if you only have a few hours to explore old Kyoto. We got to see the main sights and our guide Oscar was knowledgeable and accommodating.

The operator never showed... - The operator never showed up. Ruined the entire day waiting around, trying to contact them. The phone number wasn't in service and the online chat went unanswered.

Make it on time. - Missed my tour due to the flight delays and cancellations - if you schedule this tour keep in to make it. No excuses. They did try once to communicate, but due to the plane issues I didn't reply fast enough to get them to reschedule something.

Stay away - left stranded - We traveled from Osaka to Kyoto for the day and had a half day tour planned. They left us stranded, no call, no email. We had hotel call the local number and no answer. We had to scramble and figure out what we could do for the half day. We still have no answer. A complete scam - STAY AWAY!! Viator also did nothing and took zero accountability.
