Kyoto Private Taxi Tour with Customizable Itinerary & English-Speaking Guide

Awesome Tour de Kyoto!

Reviewed by: Lish

This tour was completely worth every penny! We got to see three major sights with the ease of door to door service. Not only was our driver, Fuji-san awesome, but he also gave great tours and we learned so much more than we would have if we walked around ourselves. I would recommend this plan to anyone especially in the heat of the summer and when you have a lot to see in a short amount of time.

伏見稲荷大社+清水寺+金閣寺+嵐山 1日ツアー 定番観光地を1日で巡る! 昼食付きプランあり<京都駅発/英語・日本語>by 神姫観光 LIMON

I'm glad I went! 行って良かったです♪

Reviewed by: 山田貴美代

I had been wanting to visit Fushimi Inari Taisha for a long time, and during my visit, the tour guide introduced me to another solo female traveler. We were able to stick together, which helped us return to the bus without getting lost. I was also grateful for the cool towels from the driver to wipe my sweaty neck. Thanks to both of you, it became a memorable trip, and I am truly grateful. Thank you so much for everything.

前から行きたかった伏見稲荷大社さまにお詣りの際に添乗員さんから別のひとり参加の女性を紹介していただき一緒に行動してもらえて道に迷うことなくバスに戻れて運転手さんの冷たいおしぼりも汗だくの首筋を拭けて嬉しかったです。お二人のおかげさまで想い出に残る旅になり有り難く感謝しています。色々と本当にありがとうございました。

Kiyomizu-dera, Kinkaku-ji, Fushimi Inari Taisha Bus Tour 清水寺 金閣寺 伏見稲荷大社バスツアー

Reviewed by: らんらん

I relied on the map to reach the meeting point, but there was a proper waiting area inside the hotel, complete with restrooms. Most importantly, waiting for departure with the guide, who constantly provided sufficient information, made me feel that this would be a fun day from the very start.

On this day, I was the only Japanese participant among over 30 attendees, but it didn't feel that way at all. The guide provided everyone with plenty of information about the meeting time, recommended flavors, highlights, and additional tips, which was very helpful. The announcements were made in both Japanese and English accurately.

During the tour, the response to a customer who missed their train was swift, and despite initial worries, I was very impressed by how appropriate it was. Since summer in Kyoto is hot, the bus was well-cooled, adjusted to the timing of passengers boarding, balancing eco-friendliness effectively.

As others mentioned, the only downside of this tour was the lack of time at each landmark. However, considering that we visited three distant sites in one day, some limitations are understandable. If you accept that souvenirs can be purchased on another occasion, it was a very satisfying tour.

Although it was just one station, the experience of riding the subway was refreshing and enjoyable. The bus was a vibrant lemon yellow! At first, I was hesitant about it standing out, but each time I boarded, I grew fond of it. It was a relatively new bus with comfortable headrests, footrests, and power outlets at my feet.

Overall, in addition to the content, the guide's performance was outstanding. It was a day that made me want to join again somewhere else.

日帰りバスツアー 伏見稲荷大社+清水寺+金閣寺+嵐山 定番観光地を1日で巡る!昼食付プランあり<梅田・京都発/英語・日本語>by 神姫観光 LIMON

It was a perfect bus tour! 大正解のバスツアーでした!

Reviewed by: kyoko

On July 17th (during the Gion Matsuri), I went to Kyoto on a day trip bus tour.
First, we visited Fushimi Inari Taisha to see the thousands of red torii gates. Walking through the rows of red gates was quite enchanting!
Next, we headed to Kiyomizu-dera. After getting off the bus, we had to walk a bit, but the streets along the way were lined with souvenir shops, adding to the atmosphere.
The "stage of Kiyomizu" and the three waterfalls were also impressive.
We were supposed to have lunch there, but the dining spots were crowded, and we ended up cutting it close to the bus departure time. I wish I had a little more time to leisurely browse the souvenirs…
At Kinkaku-ji, it was a one-way flow from the entrance, but I still had time to take some photos.
The bus was relatively new, and there were USB charging ports at each seat!
The driver and tour guide were friendly and often engaged with us. The guide provided information about the sightseeing spots even while we were on the bus.
It seemed there were many foreign guests, so the announcements were made in both Japanese and English.
This was my first day trip bus tour, and I was very satisfied with the experience. I now want to try visiting other tourist spots by bus tour as well.

7月17日(祇園祭真っ只中)日帰り観光バスで京都に行ってきました。
始めに伏見稲荷大社の千本鳥居を見に行きました。
赤い鳥居が続く中を歩くのは なかなか幻想的でした!
次は清水寺です。
バスを降りてからも少し歩きますが、途中の通りもお土産やさんがズラッと並んでいて、雰囲気も楽しめます。
「清水の舞台」や三本の滝も見応えがありました。
お昼もここで食べるようになっていましたが、食事どころも混んでいて、バスまでの時間がギリギリになってしまいました。
もう少しゆっくりお土産を見る時間がほしかったかな…
金閣寺は入り口から一方通行で 人の流れに乗りながらの見学でしたが、写真なんかは撮る余裕はありました。
バスはわりと新しくて、充電のUSBが各席にありました!
運転手さんや添乗員さんも気さくで、よく声をかけてくれました。
添乗員さんと言うよりはガイドさん並みに、観光先を車内でも案内してくれていました。
外国のお客さまも多いようで、日本語と英語の両方での案内がありました。
日帰りのバスツアーは初めてでしたが、とても満足できる内容で、また他の観光地へもバスツアーで行ってみたくなりました。

Extremely satisfied with my first visit to Kyoto! 大満足の初京都!

Reviewed by: あかり

This was my first trip to Kyoto and a bus tour. Thanks to the tour guide and the bus driver, I was able to enjoy sightseeing in Kyoto with peace of mind. The tour guide kindly took photos for us and provided detailed explanations at each shrine and temple we visited. For those with small children, they often checked in with, "Are you okay? It's hot, isn't it?" When we got off the bus, the driver said, "Have a good time," which made me happy. Before arriving at each sightseeing spot, they provided us with local maps and recommended popular souvenirs and dining options. Thanks to all of this, I was able to fully enjoy a fun Kyoto tour! I would like to use this service again for future sightseeing. However, while I understand time constraints, I would appreciate a little more flexibility in the duration of our stay at each location. There were many overseas guests, and the tour guide alternated between Japanese and English, which was also a great learning experience. This time coincided with the Gion Matsuri, and there were a lot of tourists, but that made for wonderful memories! Thank you very much!

今回、初めての京都&バス観光旅行でした。
添乗員さんとバスの運転手さんのおかげで、安心して京都を観光できました。
添乗員さんは親切に写真を撮ってくれたり、行く先々で神社仏閣の案内をていねいにしてくれました。
小さい子ども連れの人には「大丈夫?暑いね」と、よく声もかけてあげていました。
バスを降りる時には、運転手さんが「行ってらっしゃい」と一言かけてくれたり、嬉しく思いました。
観光地にごとに、到着前には 現地の地図をくれたり 人気のお土産や食事どころを教えてくれました。
これらのおかげで、安心して楽しい京都ツアーを満喫できました!
また観光する際には こちらを利用したいです。
ただ、時間の事は難しいでしょうが、もう少し一カ所ごとの滞在時間に余裕があればうれしいと思いました。
海外のお客さんも多くて、添乗員さんは日本語と英語を交互で案内されてて、勉強にもなりました。
今回は、祇園祭と日にちが重なって、観光客がすごかったですが、それも含めて とてもいい思い出になりました!
ありがとうございました!

There were almost exclusively foreign travelers, with only three Japanese participants, but our tour guide, Harry, was very kind and accommodating.

I definitely plan to join again when I travel to Kansai. Thank you very much.

Very nice prívate limousine tour!

Reviewed by: Heather

Our driver Ken was very nice, courteous and very knowledgeable about the different places we asked him to take us. We were happily surprised that he spoke English very well and he was able to answer a lot of the questions we had about various places along the drive and at our various destinations. The car we drove in was spacious, comfortable and very tidy. We booked the limousine tour for 6 hours and we were able to see all the various destinations shown in the pictures. We even got to walk on an hour hike, started at one point and we coordinated with him the pickup point at the end of the trail. It was a great experience.

I took some guests from America. Although it was a short four-hour time, they kindly responded to my requests and spoke fluent English both in the car and at the sightseeing spots. When the conversation turned to "The Last Samurai," they introduced several locations where filming took place, and everyone was satisfied. According to them, it was the most memorable activity. Thank you very much.

Like a school trip. 修学旅行のように

Reviewed by: naomi

Although I was a week late for the cherry blossom season, it might have actually been a good thing, as there were no crowds and I could easily get around everywhere.

First, I visited Fushimi Inari. Since it was my first stop and due to the location, it was impossible to see everything within the time limit.

The second place I went to was Kiyomizu-dera. The distribution of time was fine here, and the location was good, which made it enjoyable.

I highly recommend visiting Kinkaku-ji as my third stop. The scenery is wonderful.

It was my first visit since my student days, and experiencing Kyoto again with the passing years felt different and truly lovely.

Although I was traveling alone, most of the other guests were foreigners, and the tour guide was very kind, which was great. There were no issues traveling alone. However, it would be wise to check the meeting place in advance.

Also, today I'm heading to Guam, and I'm participating in another tour with Bell Tours. The monitor tour is very reasonable and definitely worth using.

I'm sure there will be plenty of enjoyable experiences.

桜の時期には一週間遅れたけれど、
それが逆に良かったのか、激込みというところがなく、どこもスイスイ行けました。

まずは伏見稲荷は一番最初に行きましたが、ここは最初だということもあり、場所てきな問題もあり全てを回ることは、時間内には無理でした。

2番目に行ったのは、清水寺。
ここは、問題ない配分でしたし、ロケーションはよいし良かったですね。

3番目の金閣寺は是非行ってみてほしいです。

景観が素晴らしいですよ。

学生以来の再行きでしたが、年を重ねての京都はまた、違った趣が感じられ、ほんとに素敵。

This time, I traveled to Kyoto with a foreign acquaintance. Since it was their first time in Japan, we visited "the Kyoto." The explanations were thorough, and my acquaintance was very satisfied. They asked many questions, and the responses were polite, which improved my previously negative impression of taxis, making me want to use them again. One thing I found concerning was that since I had requested an attendant for a foreigner, it would have been nice if they wore name tags in English. I think there are times when it's just foreigners, so I would appreciate it if you could consider this.

We were hoping to see the foliage, but the driver was kind enough to collect the latest information regarding how much of the leaves actually changed color from different areas. In the end, we just went to the place recommended by our driver.
Our other goal for our trip was to try some of Kyoto’s famous sweets. Luckily, our driver had a sweet tooth himself and took us to a famous sweets shop along the way. We were finally able to eat the chestnut rice cake. Our six hours was full of unique experiences and definitely well spent.

Classic Kyoto Half Day Tour to Kinkakuji, Gingakuji, & Kiyomizudera

Top 3 temples in one day

Reviewed by: Savvy808

There are so many temples in Kyoto but this tour took us to the 3 temples I wanted to see and the guide also pointed out all the temples along the way from the bus. It was just enough stops to maintain my 13 year old daughter's interest without getting bored. Audio headset for English and other languages were only used in the bus so we couldn't understand the guide's explanation at all the stops, which was disappointing to us and the rest of the non-Japanese speaking people on our tour. The time spent at each stop was perfect with enough time to quickly browse through the shops and try popular snacks sold near the temples. We received small omiyage or souvenirs from each temple which was a nice surprise! Although it's a ways down a lot of steps, you should take the time to drink the water flowing down 3 channels to a fountain at Kiyomizudera. They say it has wish granting powers for love, academic success and longevity. This was a great tour but would've been perfect if it was in English!

Arrangements for guests from abroad. 海外からのゲストのため手配

Reviewed by: デンタル

Since I had roughly communicated the schedule in advance, everything went very smoothly. I had heard that it might be crowded due to the season of school trips, but on the day itself, we were able to move according to plan more than I expected. As a result, the later part of the schedule was very well-timed, allowing us to spend our time meaningfully. Additionally, the detailed guidance on the history and culture of each landmark, which is not found in textbooks, was provided in English, and the guests were extremely satisfied. The explanations in English were well-structured and expressive, which made the guests feel that they were in the hands of a professional. Thank you very much for your help.

事前にざっくりとスケジュールをお伝えしていたので、とても予定はスムーズでした。修学旅行生の多い時期のため混み具合が読めないと伺いましたが、当日は思ったより計画通りに移動が出来たため、後半のスケジュールは的確な時間を読めた提案いただいたきとても有意義に時間いっぱい過ごせました。また、英語での各名所の歴史や文化を教科書には載っていない詳細を丁寧にゲストにガイドしていただき、ゲストの満足度は大変高かったです。英語での説明は、うまくまとめたストーリーと表現力にゲストは納得していたのでプロフェッショナルを感じました。本当にお世話になりました。ありがとうございました。

Only Americans. 米人だけ

Reviewed by: kuma

I had a day when I couldn't attend to my American friends who came to rely on me, so I entrusted them to this service. Their feedback was "very satisfied." They requested places they wanted to visit that I had found online in advance, and it seems they were quite flexible. They also helped me with souvenir shopping, which was a great assistance. I believe they were able to create much better memories than if I, an amateur, had guided them around Kyoto. Next time, I would like to try it myself.

私を頼って来てくれたアメリカの友人たちに、私がアテンド出来ない日が一日発生し、その間、彼らだけをこのサービスに預けた。
彼らの感想は "大満足" だった。 予めWEBで見つけておいた、行きたい場所をリクエストし連れていってもらったそうで、かなり融通も利いたようだった。
土産物探しも、付き合ってくれて大変助かった。
素人の私が京都を案内するよりも、遥かに効率良く、良い想い出が作れたことと思う。
次回は自分も乗ってみたい。

Great time in Kyoto

Reviewed by: teddy85

First time went to Kyoto alone, we didn't know where to go, we found on the internet about this tour. We had a wonderful time and enjoy tour, tour guide is really friendly and closer with travellers. But only each sightseeing places too much travellers, and the time for sightseeing is limited, so that we have not lot of time to sightseeing as well.
If have change to travel again, we will chose this tour. Thank you

It's perfect for efficient sightseeing. 効率の良い観光に最適です

Reviewed by: mike-hiro

I used this service to guide a couple visiting from South Africa. It was very optimal for sightseeing efficiently in a short six-hour time frame. The driver speaking English was also a plus. I believe the direct conversation between the guests and the driver deepened personal understanding and increased the guests' enjoyment.

For the sightseeing plan, I basically just communicated the places I wanted to visit to the driver and left the rest to him, which resulted in the most efficient sightseeing experience.

Although the cherry blossom season had already passed, I was hoping to show the guests some cherry blossoms. The driver advised that Ninna-ji Temple would have late-blooming cherry blossoms in full bloom, so we visited. Just as the driver said, they were in full bloom, and we were able to enjoy it at the perfect timing.

The car was comfortable to ride in and I think it was worth the cost. I would like to use this service again on my next opportunity.

南アからの訪問者ご夫婦を案内するのに使わせて頂きました。6時間の短時間で効率良く観光するにはとても最適です。運転手さんが英語を話せるのもGoodです。お客さんと運転手さんの間で直接会話が弾み、個人的な理解も深まってお客さん自身も楽しみが増えたと思います。
観光プランは基本的に行ってみたい処だけを運転手さんに伝えて、後はお任せでしたが、最も効率の良い観光ができました。
桜の時期は既に過ぎていましたが、なんとか桜をお客さんに見せてあげられないかと思っていたところ、運転手さんから仁和寺が遅咲きの桜が満開だろうとのアドバイスがあり訪問しました。運転手さんの言う通り丁度満開で、最高のタイミング満喫することができました。
車も乗り心地が良く十分コストに見合うものだと思います。次の機会も利用させて頂きたいと思っています。

I used this service to accommodate American and Mexican guests. It was very well received, and everyone was satisfied. The driver's English was not fluent, but he had solid knowledge, and I believe the information was conveyed properly. I also appreciated his sincere attitude in explaining things. I definitely want to use this service again in the future.

アメリカ人とメキシコ人の来客対応として利用しました。大好評で皆さんに満足してもらえました。運転手の英語は決して流暢ではなかったですが、知識はしっかりしていて、内容もちゃんと伝わったと思います。誠実な説明態度も気に入りました。是非今後も利用したいと思います。

Reviewed by: 渡邉 廣次

We were taken care of by a total of four people, including two Americans. As expected from a top English guide in Kyoto, they were attentive not only to temples and history but also to dining locations and movie filming spots. Their politeness was commendable. This is true Japanese hospitality.

アメリカ人2人と合計4人でお世話になりました。さすが京都の一流英語ガイドです。寺院、歴史はもちろん、食事の場所やら、映画の撮影場所紹介などこと小まめでした。礼儀正しいのが良かった。これぞ日本のおもてなしです。

After checking in at Urban Hotel Kyoto, our driver was waiting for us in the hotel lobby. At first impression, he spoke English well, so I was immediately confident that communication would not be an issue. He was also very polite and courteous. The car we rode in was spacious and comfortable.

Our first destination was Kinkaku-ji Temple. Our knowledgeable guide was very informative all along the way, enhancing our understanding and appreciation of this historical site. The experience at Kinkaku-ji Temple truly is a fine example of human architecture and nature co-existing in harmony.

Our next destination was the Bamboo Walk, where famous parts of the movie scene from "Memoirs of a Geisha" were filmed. Next, we headed towards Tenryuji Tsukurimichi-cho.

Our final stop of the day was Gion. After an informative introduction by our driver, we bade him goodbye and were left to enjoy the rest of the evening walking in the area of Gion. We would definitely like to come back to Kyoto again for our next trip to Japan, which has left us with an everlasting impression of beauty, cleanliness, and impeccable standards of service!
