Kyoto’s beauty is timeless but experiencing it in peace is rare. On this early morning private tour, you’ll step into the city’s most iconic sights before the crowds awaken.
Begin your day beneath the whispering torii gates of Fushimi Inari-taisha, enjoying the spiritual stillness that vanishes by mid-morning.

1
Fushimi Inari-taisha Shrine
The beautiful tunnel of thousands of vermilion torii gates is so famous and picturesque. These torii gates are offered by worshippers in appreciation for the good fortune they received from the deity enshrined here. Why don’t you, too, offer a prayer and change your luck?

Kinkakuji Temple
This famous Zen temple is an icon of Samurai culture. You enter this venerated temple right after it opens in the morning, when few people visit. At this hour it is possible to get a good look at the gilded building and its beautiful appearance reflected in the pond and to take pictures at your own pace.

Arashiyama
In the fresh early morning air, we walk through the renowned bamboo forest before the site gets busy. The beauty of the bamboo grove in the morning sun is exceptional. Let's stop and close our eyes. We can hear the bamboo trunks and leaves touch each other in the morning breeze and making sounds that heal our heart tenderly.
