Hey there! I'm Austen, your local host in Kyoto. This city is a beautiful blend of modernity and history, allowing you to seamlessly experience different lifestyles. I absolutely love exploring Kyoto on my bicycle, uncovering hidden gems along the way. My friends and I often go on "temple hunting" adventures, relishing the serene atmosphere and fascinating histories of the shrines, especially at night. Between Ichijoji and Tofukuji, Imadegawa, Nijo, and Downtown neighborhoods, I know Kyoto like the back of my hand. From popular spots to hidden treasures, my deep appreciation for the city ensures you get a unique and authentic experience. Join me in Kyoto, and let's create wonderful memories together as we immerse ourselves in the city's rich culture and soothing ambiance. I can't wait to meet you!
Austin was really knowledgeable and very well spoken. Our experience with Austin was a 10 out of 10!

Austen was wonderful - he was so knowledgeable and added so much to our tour. The entire experience was more than expected and he was spot on finding some off the beaten path places to visit! Wish Austen was with us for our entire trip!
