    Bamboo forest, monkeys, statues, and temples tour!

    We had a wonderful tour with Francis and Ario. They were exceptionally accommodating. My son was not feeling well and we did not feel like running due to the intense heat. Francis and Ario modified the run for us. We still saw everything. They were very knowledgeable guides and so kind! I highly recommend this tour and remember to ask for Francis and Ario.

    Hey Karen, It was such a pleasure showing you and your family around Arashiyama! Honestly, it felt less like guiding guests and more like spending time with friends. The time flew by! We hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan.
