From the enchanting streets of Gion to the bamboo groves of Arashiyama, every corner of Kyoto has a story to tell. Whether you’re looking to delve into Kyoto’s history or soak in its natural beauty, I’ll make sure your experience is both inspiring and unforgettable. Let’s discover the magic of Kyoto together!
Wonderful walking tour of Gion with Cici. She was easy to talk to, informative, & really interesting.

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.
