Highlights

Your guide, Ai, is a Japanese government-certified English tour guide interpreter since 2015; an award-winning, magazine-covered photographer; and holds graduate degrees: MA in Japanese Pedagogy from Columbia U in 2025 and MBA in tourism and hospitality management from Kyoto U in 2020. After graduating from Columbia, she has taught Japanese language in higher education in the US..


Ai: This is a private, customizable tour by a luxury chauffeur-driven limousine that will visit UNESCO World Heritage sights-KinkakuJi Temple (Golden Pavilion), Kiyomizu Temple, and Fushimi Inari Shrine (with thousands vermillion Torii gates). 


For lunch and/or dinner, I will arrange the top-notch Tempura or Kobe Beef restaurant in Gion. 


Since all transportations and entrance fees are included in the tour price, the only additional cost on the tour day would be your meals.
Pick up and drop off at Kobe/Osaka Cruise Port, Kyoto Sta, and any hotels in Kyoto/Osaka/Kobe/Nara are available.
