I would highly recommend - the guide's knowledge and enthusiasm was excellent. The pace of the tour was just right. The religious and cultural insight's really made our trip to Kyoto.

Whilst it is easy to see these sights without a guide, and we spent five days in Kyoto seeing quite alot, the insights our guide Manabu shared into the history and culture and modern day Kyoto were priceless. We had a really fun time also. Even my husband and daughter who thought they were over seeing temples and shrines in Japan really enjoyed this tour.

Ms. Deanna M., Kyoto, 10 May 2017

Very knowledgeable and friendly guide. Told us so many different things about Japanese culture – it was a very worthwhile evening.

Mr. David H., Kyoto, 07 May 2017

We had an excellent guide (April 22) .. he was able to explain the temples and their significance and had great knowledge of Buddhism and Shintoism and was able to explain how they fitted into contemporary Japanese life. It meant that we able to view other temples away from the tour with more knowledge than we would otherwise have had - this made our whole Japan experience more enjoyable

Mr. Andy H., Kyoto, 02 May 2017

A fun day out - enthusiastic guide ... the guide we had the day before with Urban adventures (Kyoto Cultural walking tour) was better at explaining some of the complexity of Japanese religion (he was outstanding - so we understood lot more than we would have just from this tour ... but this guide was lovely, thoughtful and full of energy

Mr. Andy H., Kyoto, 01 May 2017

Great tour and our guide was extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend this tour

Ms. Emma N., Kyoto, 30 Apr 2017

Had a great time, Yumi was so lovely, full of energy and with lot of knowledge. Love the whole experience!!

Ms. Carolina C., Kyoto, 26 Apr 2017

A great way to see Kyoto but more time at the various sites would have been nice.

Mr. Marco M., Kyoto, 24 Apr 2017

This was our second tour with Urban Adventures and will continue to use them. We always go on a walking food/drink tour the first night in a new location and have found the tour guide (Juraj Puchor on this trip) to be enthusiastic, knowledgeable, relaxed with people, sharing less known local tidbits and generous with their time and help. Intimate group size allows participants to interact with each other, and facilitates venturing down narrow back streets and alleys. Been verbally recommending the company to fellow travelers and look forward to our next Adventure.

Mrs. Pareese Y., Kyoto, 14 Apr 2017

If you are in Kyoto for the first time, take this tour your first night there. Our guide took us places we would never have gone to on our own, at a time when the streets are not jammed with people. At the end of the evening we knew a bit more about the history and culture of Kyoto, plus we had a ton of great suggestions about how to spend the rest of our time in Kyoto. We had some technological issues with the on-line booking process, but thanks to Pepijn for doing everything necessary to get us booked on the tours we wanted with very short notice. So glad we found this tour and Urban adventures, I will definitely check their website when planning all my future travels.
