Additional Information

Immerse yourself in the Historic City of Kyoto, Japan. Take pleasure in touring numerous cultural and historic landmarks situated in Kyoto. One of the city’s popular attractions is Gion, a renowned geisha district in Japan.

Here, you have the fantastic opportunity to rent a kimono and incorporate a traditional Japanese experience into your journey. The Golden Pavilion, a Zen sanctuary in the northern area of Kyoto, is entirely gilded in gold. The Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine is a distinguished shrine amongst many others across Japan, dedicated to Inari, the Shinto deity of rice.

This shrine stands out due to its countless iconic, orange torri-style gates that form an arch over the path. Furthermore, we make sure that you don’t miss the stunningly beautiful and well-known Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, plus the Togetsukyo bridge, one of Kyoto’s ancient structures.
