Private Taxi Tour in Kyoto (8 hours or 4 hours)

Great value trip for people who want to see it all and in a short period of time. Pick up from your accommodation in Kyoto is Free!

This private taxi tour will allow you to visit Kyoto’s most popular sightseeing sites which are scattered throughout the city.

Please choose the option in the form while booking us and the price will be displayed in the screen according to the size of car you have chosen. You can also contact us if you need any assistance.

One of our highly professional, knowledgeable, and friendly drivers will escort you and explain the history and culture of Japan and Kyoto and will help you make the most out of your Kyoto vacation.

Suggested popular sightseeing spots:

  • Nijo Castle (the former Kyoto residence of the shogun with spacious Japanese gardens)
  • Kinkakuji Temple (the famous Golden Pavillion)
  • Ryoanji (one of the most famous Zen rock gardens in Japan)
  • Arashiyama district (a scenic natural area with magnificent bamboo grove)

  • Heian Shrine (constructed for the 1100th anniversary of the establishment of Heian-kyo)
