With an experienced local guide fluent in both English and Japanese (with previous experience guiding Hollywood actors, Lance Gross!)
All of our members were born and raised in Japan, so we have an in-depth understanding of the country. This allows us to share the hidden charms of Japan that only locals know. In addition, we offer free Japanese language support in case of emergencies. We only assign highly experienced professional drivers.
In recent years, there has been a sharp increase in accidents and incidents involving unlicensed or inexperienced drivers who are not from Japan at other companies. Our strength lies in providing the highest level of safety and reliability through our Japanese drivers and Japanese guides.
In addition to hands-on activities such as ninja training and chopstick-making, our strong local connections grant access to exclusive experiences — including invitations-only Ochaya and private geisha or maiko performances.

Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine
Fushimi Inari Taisha is one of Kyoto’s most iconic landmarks, best known for the breathtaking Senbon Torii, or “thousands of torii gates,” that form bright red tunnels winding through the forested slopes of Mount Inari. Dedicated to Inari, the Shinto deity of rice, prosperity, and good fortune, the shrine has long been a place of deep cultural and spiritual significance. Visitors can stroll beneath the endless rows of gates, discover smaller shrines along the paths, and admire fox statues, believed to be Inari’s messengers. Whether you visit in the daytime, when the vermilion gates shine vividly in the sun, or at night, when the pathways take on a serene and mysterious atmosphere, Fushimi Inari offers an unforgettable experience.
Arashiyama
Arashiyama, in western Kyoto, is a scenic district known for its natural beauty and cultural landmarks. Highlights include the enchanting Bamboo Forest, the UNESCO World Heritage Tenryu-ji Temple, and the picturesque Togetsukyo Bridge, which is especially stunning during cherry blossom season and autumn foliage. Visitors can also explore the Iwatayama Monkey Park for views over Kyoto and encounters with wild monkeys, and stroll through the illuminated Kimono Forest near Arashiyama Station. With its blend of traditional shops, tea houses, and breathtaking scenery, Arashiyama is a must-visit destination in Kyoto.

5.00Before booking any tour, please make sure the company is operating legally. A friend of mine once joined a tour in Japan run illegally by foreigners, and their vehicle was involved in an accident, which caused serious trouble. Don’t let something like that ruin your trip to Japan. I strongly suggest booking with a legitimate, locally operated company like this one so you can enjoy a safe and wonderful experience. We had such a great time and were very satisfied. Thank you so much!
An amazing experience in Japan

5.00If this tour had been done on our own, it would have taken an incredible amount of time. Thanks to this company, we were able to visit so many places comfortably in a short period of time, and we had an amazing experience. I highly recommend doing both the Kyoto & Nara tour and the Kyoto (Amanohashidate) tour over two days. By doing this, you can visit all the must-see spots in Kyoto and Nara in just two days. Since I split the cost among my family of four, the price per person was very reasonable. For a comfortable tour with a private car and a guide, this is the only company I would recommend.
Flexible tours

5.00This tour was extremely flexible and accommodating to our requests. The guide carefully listened to what we wanted to see and even gave thoughtful recommendations for sightseeing spots and local food along the way. After Kyoto and Nara tour, we really wanted to visit Naoshima in Kagawa, the famous art island, and when we asked to travel there by car, they kindly agreed and took us without hesitation. What truly sets this tour apart is that they can take you anywhere in Japan you’d like to go, which makes it an excellent option not only for single-day trips but also for multi-day or longer tours. Since my father has Parkinson’s disease, we wanted to avoid traveling by train. Thanks to the private car transportation, we never had to worry about getting lost, and the journey itself was relaxed and enjoyable. This tour is especially well-suited for seniors, families with children, and group travelers. It is far more convenient than transferring between trains and taxis, and considering how many places we were able to visit efficiently, it offers great value for money. Although the pricing is per group, when you divide the cost among the participants, it is very reasonable—honestly, we felt it was even more affordable than using other forms of transportation.
A Safe, Secure, and Comfortable Journey

5.00We compared and researched several other tour companies, and we noticed that many of them were operated by foreign company and guides or were running illegally using white-plated vehicles. We had seen news reports about illegal white-plate operators in Japan being involved in accidents or arrested by the police, and we wanted to avoid any potential trouble. Because of that, we carefully compared many tours and ultimately chose this one, hoping for an experience in Japan that was safe, reliable, and enjoyable. This company operates with properly licensed staff and green-plated vehicles, which gave us a great sense of trust in terms of safety. The communication during the booking process was very polite and attentive, and the quality of the local guide was excellent. The guide spoke both Japanese and English fluently, which made us feel even more comfortable. Overall, we were extremely satisfied with the experience in every aspect—safety, enjoyment, and service quality.
The Ultimate Kyoto & Nara Tour

5.00Having a local guide who holds both a professional guiding license and a taxi license(green plated)made us feel truly safe and well taken care of throughout the day. In just one day, we were efficiently guided through the highlights of Kyoto and Nara, and both my family and I were extremely satisfied with the experience. We looked into several tours from other companies, but most of them either offered fewer destinations or allowed very limited time at each spot. In comparison, this tour was comfortable, enjoyable, and unmatched in how many places we were able to visit in a single day. The vehicle was spacious and easily accommodated our large luggage, and we really appreciated the help with transferring from our hotel in Kyoto to our hotel in Osaka. From start to finish, the service exceeded our expectations, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.

5.00Kyoto Nara Private Car Tour with a Local English Guide Yama and green plated driver was an excellent experience from start to finish. Traveling by private car made the journey smooth and comfortable, especially for our family, and the itinerary was well paced without feeling rushed. Our local English-speaking guide Yama was professional, friendly, and very knowledgeable, sharing insightful stories and cultural background that brought Kyoto and Nara to life. The flexibility to adjust stops along the way and the thoughtful attention to our needs made the day truly enjoyable. This tour offered a perfect balance of comfort, efficiency, and authentic local insight, and we would highly recommend it to anyone wanting a relaxed and enriching way to explore Kyoto and Nara.
Private car and tour in Kanazawa, Shirakawago and Kyoto

5.00We booked a 5-day private car (green plated) and tour covering Kanazawa, Shirakawa-go, and Kyoto, and it was easily one of the best decisions of our Japan trip with Yama and his team. From the very beginning, everything was smooth and well organized. Traveling as a group, the private car made a huge difference. No rushing for trains, no struggling with luggage, and the itinerary flowed comfortably at our own pace. The vehicle was clean, spacious, and perfect for long drives between cities. Kanazawa was a wonderful start, with its historic districts, beautiful gardens, and relaxed atmosphere. Our guide thoughtfully planned the route so we could enjoy the highlights without feeling overwhelmed. The visit to Shirakawa-go was unforgettable. Seeing the traditional gassho-zukuri houses surrounded by nature felt like stepping into a postcard. The timing was well managed, allowing us to explore, take photos, and enjoy lunch without crowds or stress. Kyoto was the perfect finale. Despite it being a busy city, the private car allowed us to move efficiently between temples, shrines, and cultural areas. The itinerary was flexible and tailored to our interests, which made the experience feel personal rather than rushed. Throughout the four days, our driver and guide were professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. They shared helpful insights about Japanese culture, history, and local tips, and were always attentive to our needs. Their experience truly elevated the trip and made everything feel easy and enjoyable. Overall, this 4-day private tour was seamless, comfortable, safe and thoughtfully curated. If you’re traveling as a family or group and want a stress-free way to see multiple destinations in Japan, I highly recommend this service. We would absolutely use them again on our next visit.

5.00They are amazing! Their tour is great! Our guide,was very kind, friendly and experienced! He told us so much about unique Japanese culture that only the locals know. He also took us to a souvenir shop where guidance is available only in Japanese, and thanks to him we were able to buy cool jackets that can only be found in Japan, as well as Japan-exclusive Shohei Otani goods. You should definitely book them!

5.00They took us to restaurants where you can only order in Japanese, and our guide, Hibiki, was incredible. He explained the menu, helped us order, and even guided us through the payment process. They were honestly the best — you should definitely book with them!
