Kyoto Arashiyama halvdags privat tur

amazing tour and amazing guide. our guide was very accommodating to us and our questions. the experience overall was perfect

Very nice tour. Our guide TK was very accommodating.

Pros: - the guide showed us the mountain Kameyo Mountain with a stunning view of the river and mountains - gave us a bit of the history of the garden Con - didn’t bring us to the bamboo kimono - guide has limited English The places were beautiful and must see! BUT You can go to this places without buying this tour. Don’t spend us much as we did! Plus the limited English of the tour guide did not satisfy our curiosity of the culture and history of the place. We had so many questions she had difficulty answering. The guide was nice, warm and tried his best to be very helpful. There were just words she found hard to comprehend and we just stop trying after a while. We were also hoping that since we have a guide, she can at least help us take nicer pics together rather than taking selfies or asking random strangers to take our pictures, BUT to no avail. Ended up taking selfies just so we can have nicer pictures 😥 Whatever we learned from the tour guide was not worth 12k 😥

The tour guide was really very knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed ourselves!

The tour guide was on time and helpful, explaining all the history and culture in details. A perfect way to start your trip there.

Worthy tour for your itinerary! Though it would be better if tour starts earlier than 9am, the bamboo forest gets crowded.

Our tour guide, Ms Eml Matsuda, was a nice & friendly guide. Every place we went, she will explained the history to us. It was a great tour.

私人導遊像是我們朋友，我們一行三人，跟著他遊走嵐山，聽他介紹歷史，我們也問了不少當地的事。這種私人導遊，雖然花費不少，但是值得的。而且因不是坐旅遊車，下次自己也懂得去欣賞紅葉。

Very good follow up from the tourist guide. He has called and left message at my hotel to ensure the correct waiting place and time. Recommended!

We had a slight confusion on the redemption of this voucher because it didn't exactly say what or who to look for. We were at Kyoto Central station by 9AM, but we didn't know if we're supposed to claim the voucher on a kiosk, meet a person, or look for a tour bus. We spent around 45 minutes trying to find how to claim the voucher. When we decided to just go ahead on our own, we finally found our tour guide by the train station with a placard with my name on it. Would've saved all that time if we knew who or what to look for. Also, the local numbers indicated on the vouchers weren't working. :( Fortunately, despite the confusion, our tour guide Yuki was very patient and fluent in English. She took us to all the nice spots in Arashiyama and told a lot of history and trivia which we would've not known without a tour guide. She definitely made the mishap and trouble very worth it!
