    Walk Kyoto like a local

    Lance_C, Sep 2024
    Walking in the footsteps of the Shogun was the highlight for me. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we moved to the different sites efficiently but we're in no way rushed. She taught me bits of knowledge you cannot get on a standard tour and we even saw some off the beaten path sights. The tour was great.
