Co dělat v Kyoto Imperial Palace

One of the best tours we ever had the privilege to experience. Our tour guide, Nobumasa Miyake, is a fine gentleman who was very engaging and knowledgeable and masterful at enlightening us with the historical facts and culture. His method of storytelling is direct with local lore, humor and personal experience which helped us feel like we are connected to the amazing culture and past of Japan. His empathy for our struggles to stay dry from the heavy rain that was pouring down upon us by offering to switch his large umbrella with our small umbrella is a fine example of his character, integrity and respect for others. In addition, to offering to help take pictures for us, giving away his copy of the map of Kyoto when learning it was our 1st time visiting Kyoto, and suggesting great spots for trying out food, shopping and exploring. We are so grateful to be guided by such an exemplary person and strongly recommend him to be anyone next tour guide! Thank you, Nobumasa Miyake and TripGuru!

We didnt get to see the castle, due to me booking on a tuesday (perhaps worth mentioning on the booking), but visiting the two shrines and the Palace with KC was informative, as well as the drive around. His english was good, he was enthusiastic, and he used humour well throughout.

Joined the 1-Day Kyoto Tour with Sunrise Tours and it was an absolute highlight of our Japan trip. Our tour guide was incredibly informative, courteous, and thoughtful — sharing fascinating insights while ensuring everyone felt comfortable and included. Perfectly organized with seamless transportation and a wonderful balance of must-see temples and hidden gems. Highly recommended!

We had a wonderful experience with our private car charter in Kyoto! A special thank you to our driver, Aki, who was incredibly kind, patient, and accommodating throughout our very long day. The car was immaculately clean, luxurious, spacious, and extremely comfortable, which made traveling around Kyoto throughout the day so enjoyable. Aki never made us feel rushed and allowed us to truly enjoy each stop and take in the beauty of Kyoto. More than just transportation, Aki helped make our day an experience filled with wonderful memories that we will treasure from our visit to Japan. His kindness, patience, and professionalism made such a difference. We are incredibly grateful and would highly recommend this private car charter—and especially Aki—to anyone visiting Kyoto! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lovely morning spent learning interesting facts about all the temples - Great value for money

Aye byl naprosto úžasný průvodce na hradě Nidžó! Byl neuvěřitelně znalý a podělil se s námi o tolik fascinujících detailů o hradě, jeho historii a prvcích, kterých bychom si sami nikdy nevšimli. Hrad Nidžó jsem již dříve navštívil bez průvodce a mohu upřímně říci, že tento zážitek byl o 100 % lepší. Tolik jsem se toho naučil a odcházel jsem s naprosto novým uznáním pro hrad a jeho historii. Kromě toho, že byl Aye vynikající průvodce, byl také neuvěřitelně ohleduplný a pozorný. Když během naší prohlídky začalo pršet, dokonce nám nabídl, že nám sežene deštníky! Bylo to tak laskavé gesto a skutečně to ukázalo, jak moc mu záleží na lidech na jeho prohlídkách. Nemohu Ayeho dostatečně doporučit. Pokud navštívíte hrad Nidžó v Kjótu, s ním jako průvodcem bude zážitek mnohem smysluplnější a nezapomenutelnější. Děkuji, Aye, za tak nádhernou prohlídku!
