Excellent
Smooth from start to finish. No queues, no confusion, and the guide knew the area inside out. Went with my partner and we both enjoyed it.

Kyoto by Upper Quarter: a small-group day
One well-chosen day in Kyoto: temple gardens, preserved wooden streets and the restraint of kaiseki. Six guests at most, two specialists, and a private version if you would rather have it to yourselves.

About this experience
Most days in Kyoto are spent deciding what to do. This one is already decided: a small group of six, two specialists who know the city, and a day built around the things worth doing rather than the things worth photographing. It finishes with a long lunch somewhere you would not find on your own.

Better than expected
Booked this for our anniversary and it exceeded expectations. Would do it again without hesitation. Went as a group of four and everyone was happy.

A real highlight
Great value for what you get. The small group size made a real difference. Squeezed it in around a work trip and it was worth the time.

Better than expected
A highlight of the trip. I have already recommended it to two friends who are visiting next month. Travelled on my own and felt completely comfortable.
