Things to do in Kyoto

Kyoto: The Cultural Capital

If Tokyo is the brain of Japan, Kyoto is its soul. It was the imperial capital for over 1,000 years and was spared from WWII bombings, leaving its history intact. Our Kyoto Group Tours are a peaceful journey into the Japan of your imagination.

Temples & Nature

• Fushimi Inari Taisha: Walk through the mesmerizing tunnel of thousands of bright orange Torii gates winding up the mountain.
• Arashiyama Bamboo Grove: Step into another world. Walking through these towering bamboo stalks is one of the most photographed experiences in Japan.
• Kinkaku-ji (The Golden Pavilion): A Zen temple completely covered in gold leaf, reflecting perfectly in the pond before it.
• Gion District: The famous Geisha district. In the evening, you might spot a Geiko or Maiko in full kimono hurrying to an appointment in a traditional tea house.
