5.00We visited Kyoto with our family and friends (in total 4 adults and 5 teenagers). Dom was our guide and we had an amazing day with him. We booked him for the day and he was very flexible to adapt the program in order to include the main sites which we wanted to visit. He is a very knowledgeable and interesting person who is very well integrated in Japanese life and culture. We visited the main sites/areas avoiding the crowds (which is key if you want an enjoyable experience), and everybody had a very good time. I highly recommend him!
More than just a city tour – a real Kyoto experience

5.00We had an amazing private evening tour with Dominic, and it was honestly one of the highlights of our trip to Kyoto. The tour was very informative without ever feeling overwhelming, and the atmosphere was relaxed and easy-going. The whole experience felt like exploring Gion with a knowledgeable friend and we got great insights into local culture, hidden spots, and areas you wouldn’t easily discover on your own. If you’re looking for a private Kyoto tour we can highly recommend this experience.
