Review for: Kyoto Gion Small-Group Night Walk with Local Students

Had an amazing experience. Our guide, Ko, was really nice. He mentioned that this was just his 3rd such tour, but was a pro. Gave us a lot of information about the places we visited and also took us through some secret by-lanes. The conversations along the way too were very interesting. Thank you! Would certainly recommend this for anyone looking for a nice evening stroll in Kyoto.

Review for: Kyoto Gion Small-Group Night Walk with Local Students

We had a great time on the walking tour with our guide Suzuki. We had chosen the 6pm slot for the tour which we definitely recommend as you got to see Gion as the sun was setting which was beautiful. Suzuki was a very knowledgable guide and being shown around by a student added to the experience as we heard about what it was like to live in Kyoto and we got some great recommendations for places to eat.

This was a fantastic tour to learn more the customs and cultures of Japan. Our young daughter enjoyed having a student guide to practice her Japanese language skills and learn from. Ranking this as one of the most valuable experiences integrated into our time in Kyoto.

Review for: Kyoto Gion Small-Group Night Walk with Local Students

Although Gion Matsuri was incredibly crowded and chaotic, our guide, Leon, remained calm and provided excellent assistance. He explained things in a way that was easy for me to understand, even with my limited English, which I really appreciated. The tour route was efficient, and I learned a lot about Japanese culture that I hadn't known before. We were even lucky enough to see a geisha, which was a truly impressive experience. I highly recommend this tour!

We had a private tour with Uta. He showed us around and told us many interesting stories! We learned lots of new things about the culture and urban legends in Gion. It was definitely the right choice to get a tour with a local. Thank you so much for the great experience! I can only recommend this guided tour!
