Overview

Experience Kyoto’s most iconic sights in one day with the comfort and convenience of your own private car and driver. You’ll be picked up directly from your hotel in central Kyoto and taken to must-see landmarks like Nijo Castle, Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and Fushimi Inari Taisha with its famous tunnel of vermilion torii gates.

Because this is a private charter, the schedule is flexible. Spend more time at your favorite stop, skip a site, or add a snack break—your driver will adapt to your pace as long as it fits within the 8-hour tour window. You’ll be dropped off close to each destination and picked up when you’re ready, making the day smooth and stress-free. This tour is perfect for first-time visitors who want to see Kyoto’s highlights without the hassle of maps, train transfers, or crowded buses.
