What you can expect

Fall head over heels for the former Imperial capital of Japan during this fully customizable tour. A private guide ushers you to sites throughout the city, allowing you to discover Kyoto's rich cultural lineage, reflected in its bevy of UNESCO World Heritage sites and nearly 2,000 temples and shrines.

See the best of Kyoto in a single day via your comfortable chartered car. Following convenient hotel pickup, your guide ushers you to the sites on your Kyoto bucket list—from UNESCO-listed temples to mouthwatering eateries where you can pause for snacks or lunch.

Get picked up from your hotel at the break of day and head to your first destination, Kinkaku-ji or the Temple of the Golden Pavilion. Kinkaku-ji's golden facade sparkles in the soft sunlight at this early hour and you enjoy access to the popular site without having to battle the crowds. Peruse the strolling gardens and venture inside the temple to learn more about Kinkaku-ji's dramatic lineage, which dates back to 1397.

From Kinkaku-ji, choose to head to Nijo Castle for a look at what life was like in feudal Japan under the Tokugawa Shogunate. En route to Ryoan-ji, sate your appetite at a sumptuous, hole-in-the-wall spot you've been wanting to try. Then, devote the remainder of the afternoon to unlocking the charms of Ryoan-ji's lovely Zen Buddhist gardens.
