Kyoto Kurama to Kibune Guided Forest Hike
Fantastic guided hike...
Fantastic guided hike from Kurama to Kibune! Even though I was the only person signed up, they didn't cancel and I got an incredible, personalized tour. Saki was funny, engaging, and had such a great personality that the 2.5-mile walk felt like 10 feet! The mountain scenery was stunning and logistics from Demachiyanagi Station were effortless. Easily a highlight of my time in Kyoto—highly recommend!

Kyoto East Early Morning Walking Tour
Amazing Time with Akari
Our experience was nothing short of incredible. This was our first activity during our time in Kyoto and it has set the bar high. We learned so much about the Geishas, the history of Kyoto and the shrines which inhabit it. Our tour guide Akari was born and raised in Kyoto, and provided us with amazing recommendations for the rest of our time in Kyoto. I highly recommend this tour as a must do first stop for everyone visiting Kyoto!!

Kyoto Private Hiking Tour: Ancient Trails of Kurama and Kibune
José!
It was a wet day, but José made it all great. He seamlessly steered us through a bus/train transfer to the hike while giving us his take on Kyoto. The hike was beautiful, the shrines, temples, and forest were really fantastic. José kept us informed and entertained as we slowly went up and down. Highly recommend the trip and José!
