Heian Shrine tours

The 4-hour Kyoto Historical Highlights Bike Tour was absolutely fantastic! Naru was an exceptional guide—knowledgeable, friendly, and passionate about Kyoto’s history and culture. The bike ride was smooth and enjoyable, taking us through scenic streets, peaceful back alleys, and beautiful UNESCO Zen temples. Naru made the experience unforgettable by sharing fascinating stories and ensuring everyone in the group felt comfortable. The pace was perfect for exploring without feeling rushed, and the itinerary covered a wonderful mix of iconic landmarks and hidden gems. If you’re looking to experience Kyoto’s rich heritage in a fun and active way, this tour is a must. Thank you, Naru, for an amazing day!

Guide was friendly and to the point. Niki castle was overrated for me- had empty rooms inside which made no sense to me. Kinkaku-ji is a must do in Kyoto, Aarishyama area and Fushimi Inari were superb too. my parents don’t walk a lot but they were able to do this comfortably in the time that we had each place. we just went to the start point for Fushimi inari. For aarishiyama do take the bamboo route and then enter the Tenryu-ji temple from back gate- it cut downs the walking and the temple has a lovely garden

The meeting point is at the B1 underground tunnel of the AVANTI building opposite the Kyoto Station building. It is a bit difficult to find. The tour guide Mr. Rich explained carefully. He first discussed with us whether we had visited the scenic spots that we wanted to exchange outside the standard itinerary. He also explained the rules of cycling in Japan. Through his vivid explanation, we learned about the history of Higashi Honganji Temple, Yasaka Shrine, Gion... In addition to the scenic spots listed in the itinerary, at our request, we also took the Kamogawa River on the return trip and completed the turtle jumping as we wished. It was really a wonderful experience experience.

This tour is everything! Kyoto is beautiful!John was our tour guide, he is very helpful and made sure we’re always good. It was snowing the day of our tour so that made it even better. I would definitely do this tour again around Fall or Summer.

This tour efficiently allowed me to experience Japan's most representative attractions in one day, with an itinerary that included Kiyomizu-dera Temple, Fushimi Inari Shrine, Nara Park, and Todai-ji Temple. At Kiyomizu-dera Temple, the view overlooking Kyoto and the magnificence of the wooden architecture were impressive. At Fushimi Inari Shrine, walking along the endless path of torii gates allowed me to feel Japan's unique and mystical atmosphere. In Nara Park, the scenery of naturally blending with the deer was memorable, and the Great Buddha of Todai-ji Temple was overwhelming in scale and presence when I actually saw it. The tour guide, Songran Lee, provided very natural Korean explanations that were easy to understand, and she highlighted the key points of each location, allowing me to learn a lot in a short amount of time. In particular, the restaurant information she recommended during transit was practical and detailed, which was a great help during the trip. Overall schedule management, guidance, customer service, and other basic qualities as a guide were well-equipped, allowing me to enjoy the tour comfortably and with confidence! Overall, it was a stable and satisfactory tour, and I would especially recommend it to those visiting Kyoto and Nara for the first time!

Attractions along the way: There are really a lot of people at the Senbon Torii (Thousand Torii Gates), but it gets better as you climb higher. It's a great place for taking pictures and shopping, and the small boutiques inside are dazzling.
