This tour is the one and only for you.
Kyoto was an ancient capital of Japan for over 1200 years. Embedded in centuries of history and culture, it offers too much to see in one visit. Here the ancient world is integrated with the modern.
The phenomenal concentration of history and legend coexists with an equally phenomenal concentration of people busily going about their everyday life.

Makoon is a wonderful guide of Kyoto with deep knowledge of the history and popular culture. We enjoyed our time with him very much. Especially the visit to the zen temple and Ishari shrine!
I can't appreciate enough for your generous review. It was a pleasure to welcome guests from my second home! I'm glad we could talk about a wide variety of things in different places. That sun light in the zen temple was a magic. Sincerely looking forward to seeing you again, maybe in Canada next time!
What an amazing experience. Makoon filled our short time in Kyoto with so much great information and sights and experiences. We would have missed out on so much without him being our guide. Worth every penny and more!
