I am Student
I am a Landscape Architect who is currently studying in the field of Landscape Ecology. I chose to continue my education in Kyoto because of the uniqueness of this city. As a Landscape Architect, I read every corner of Kyoto and its surroundings through the function and design of landscapes influenced by history and culture that are preserved and can coexist with modern life. And as a Landscape Architect, what I really love about Kyoto is its proximity to nature. We do not need to go far from the city center to enjoy the natural beauty of this city and the surrounding from the top of the mountain. Let's explore together the nature of Kyoto and have a different experience in this city.

Cici is an outstanding Kyoto guide for English-speaking visitors to the historic city. She picked us up at our designated starting point and we headed off on our adventure. She helped us navigate Kyoto's public transportation to get to all our destinations. She had a plan for us on the sights to see, but we asked about a few others that we wanted to add and she quickly put together an itinerary that worked great. She's a really friendly, pleasant person to spend time with and I could not recommend her more highly. She really helped make our trip to Kyoto special.

CiCi was a great tour guide in Kyoto! We discussed the unique aspects of Japanese culture that you wouldn't learn just by walking around the city. We learned a lot from CiCi and the tour was a great way to start our time in Kyoto. We highly recommend this tour company and CiCi!
