Hiking in Fushimi Inari - Myths and Legends

It has been a great pleasure to have had Bryan as a guide. I recommend it 100%.

We were lucky to have Bryan as our guide, an excellent guide and a magnificent person.

Ninja Trekking half-day tour at Mt.Daimonji Kyoto

Secret way to enjoy Kyoto

Not to mention about the amazing panoramic views from the top of mountains , it was a perfect refreshment I needed - a great experience to enjoy Kyoto from a different perspective. The distance, time, and level of difficulty were all perfect, and it was a really great refreshing time in nature within the city. While engaging in the trekking the knowledgeable guide shared not just about the ninja’s role in the war strategy, but also the way of using thier physical boy as well as energetic body, and idea behind their” jyutu”- their special skills . there was also talk about etiquette at Japanese temples and shrines, and the Japanese sense of Onmyodo (the ancient mystical practice of yin-yang and the five elements), making it a really enjoyable time! A perfect activity for family with active kids too! Thank you again!! 寺社だけではなく、違った視点で京都を楽しむのにはぴったりなトレッキングでした。距離も時間もキツさもパーフェクトで、とっても良いリフレッシュになりました。 忍者の役割や歩き方、考え方など、だけではなく、日本の寺社での作法や陰陽道の日本的感覚のお話しもあり、とっても楽しい時間でした!
