What to expect

Starting from Osaka in the early morning, we will take you on a one-day tour of Kyoto's three classic scenic spots. First, we will go to the magnificent Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion) to admire the golden pavilion reflected in the Mirror Lake. Then, we will visit the World Heritage Site Kiyomizu-dera Temple and stroll along the charming Ninen-zaka and Sannen-zaka streets, where you can freely experience kimono transformation. Finally, we will arrive at Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine, pass through the thousands of vermilion torii gates, and feel the unique vermilion shock. The itinerary is well-paced and provides Osaka hotel pick-up and drop-off service, allowing you to easily enjoy a one-stop tour of Kyoto's highlights.
