Bekymringsfri privat udforskning af Fushimi Inari, Gion, Kiyomizudera og mere
Beskrivelse
Dyk ind i og sving om et af Kyotos mest historisk rige områder, Higashiyama ("Eastern Mountain") med din helt egen private, engelsktalende guide med stor viden om Kyoto og japansk kultur. Start fra det sydligste bjerg i byen, hvor den berettigede berømte Fushimi Inari-helligdom ligger i vente med sine tusinder over tusinder af lyserøde toriiporte, der fører dig op ad bjerget til højere og stadig helligere steder. Opnået mission, en kort togtur (inkluderet) deponerer os perfekt til en udforskning af Gion, et traditionelt underholdningsdistrikt, hvor geisha stadig har domstol og stor respekt. Arbejd dig vej gennem forskellige templer og helligdomme på østsiden, mens du lærer, hvad der gør dette område så specielt. Alle adgangsgebyrer og transit er inkluderet, så der er ingen grund til at bekymre sig om skjulte gebyrer. Da dette er en privat tur, er du velkommen til at kontakte os om eventuelle ændringer, du gerne vil foretage i rejseplanen. Vi er meget fleksible.

Rejseplan
Start din rejse på den sydligste spids af Higashiyama-bjergkæden med den uovertrufne pragt af Fushimi Inari-helligdommen. Her skal du transportere dig til en anden verden under de tusinder af mystiske, vermilion torii-porte, da din guide forklarer betydningen bag arkitekturen og symbolikken. Grundlagt i 711 e.Kr., denne helligdom har masser af historier at fortælle.
En hurtig togtur fører os til bedstefar til Kyoto underholdningsdistrikter, Gion, hvor Geisha stadig bor og underholder indtil i dag. Gå forbi det ærefrygtindgydende Kabuki-teater, og spadseret derefter med tehysstrengen af perler kendt som Hanami Koji Street. Den smukt bevarede middelalderarkitektur i dette område transporterer dig lige tilbage Edo-perioden (1603-1868).
Besøg Kyotos mest berygtede kærlighedshelligdom, hvor folk ikke bare ønsker deres soulmate, men også hævn. Se om du kan kravle gennem kraftstenen, der siges at hjælpe med at styrke bånd med dem, du elsker, og skære de giftige bånd i dit liv ud.
Se den betagende Yasaka-pagode, der tårner over det østlige bjergområde. Dets autoritative holdning har været en del af distriktets stof siden 1440 e.Kr. Vi stopper ved dette arkitektoniske vidunder på vej op til Sannenzaka gade.
Lykkelig mindre overfyldt end nogle andre must-see-pletter i Kyoto, Kodaiji-templet giver dig mulighed for at bask i roen i sine haver og bare generelt indånde det hele. Tempelkomplekset er vært for mausoleum og rester af to helte fra slutningen af krigføringen Statens periode i slutningen af 1500-tallet, den 2. store forening Toyotomi Hideyoshi, og hans kone, Nene. Der var en tid, hvor templet blev indhegnet i frodig lak med knust ædelmetalindlæg opnået gennem en teknik kaldet “Maki-e”. På trods af mange brande er der stadig en original struktur med den falmende lak og vægmalerier samt det immaculately bevarede mausoleum, hvor du kan se det spektakulære, vedvarende håndværk på nært hold og ved første hånd. I yderligere 500 yen kan du også nyde lidt frisk, whisked matcha-te med en lille sød, når du ser på de fredfyldte haver.
To smukt bevarede pilgrimsrejse gader der fører til det berømte Kiyomizudera (rent vand) tempel. Foret med travle butikker og rækkehuse i middelalderens stil med dejlige, uhindrede synslinjer.

Our guide, Damian, provided great insight, background and history to a beautiful, interesting and culturally rich part of Kyoto. Sure you can do this by yourself but a great guide adds depth and makes great use of your time. The temples and shrines are, of course, fabulous…brought to life by Damian.
Thank you for sharing your experience! We’re delighted to hear Damian helped bring Kyoto’s temples, shrines, and history to life. As this is a shorter tour, we also aim to make the most of your time by ensuring smooth travel between locations, including by train, so you can experience as much as possible. We truly appreciate your kind recommendation!😊
Booked a private car with Pinpoint for a guided tour of Kyoto. Our guide picked us up from our hotel and we toured Gion, Kiyomizu-Dera, Fushimi Inari, and a couple of other sites. After spending the morning and part of the afternoon, we were dropped off back at our hotel. Very convenient, and this allowed us to avoid wasting time on public transit (some sites are inconvenient to reach using subways and busses) and see more in the time we had. If we had tried to do this ourselves with subways, busses, and walking it probably would have taken the better part of two days to see this all. Not to mention, we would have missed quite a bit of what we saw simply because of unfamiliarity with the area. Our guide was very knowledgeable of the area and did a great job.
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re glad to hear that the private car tour allowed you to make the most of your time in Kyoto and visit several key sites comfortably in one day. Traveling by vehicle can be especially helpful in covering areas that are less convenient by public transport, and we’re pleased this made your day more efficient and relaxed. It’s also nice to know your guide’s knowledge helped bring more context to the places you visited.
Walking tour around Gion and Fushimi Inari. A lot of walking was involved and we had someone who used a cane. It was extremely hot and it would have been nice to have more water breaks.
Thank you very much for joining our four-hour walking tour in Kyoto. It’s true that there is quite a bit of walking involved, and although we wish it weren’t so, summers in Japan can feel steamier than a hot pot. Still, we’re truly grateful you chose to explore Kyoto with Pinpoint Traveler, and we hope the sights and experiences will remain a memorable part of your visit!
Oisin greeted us at the station and we were Introduced to shrines and temples of Kyoto. Up and down the hills we walked and enjoyed seeing so many sites. What a great way to spend the day.
Thank you so much for your review. It sounds like you had a full day exploring Kyoto’s beautiful shrines, temples, and hillside paths. We’re glad you enjoyed the journey. We hope to welcome you back for more adventures in the future!
Our guide (and his trainee) were very knowledgeable about all aspects of Japan. We had a great time and learned a lot. Ferdinand took us to some less busy spots of the shrines where we could enjoy the peaceful surroundings and soak in the experience. We had a great time! It is a pretty fast pace and gave us a great introduction to the area so we could go back and visit places we wanted to spend more time.
Hi Julie. Thank you for the kind review. Our guests' happiness is our greatest reward. We love Japan, and love finding ways for others to share that love!
Duygo provided us excellent explanations of all the sites we visited. Very friendly and super knowledgeable! Lots of walking and a few steeper hills made the trip challenging for some older folks in our group but guide was very accommodating.
Kyoto is a very walk-centric city, especially the area the night tour happens in. We're glad you were still able to power through and really enjoy the history and food the tour provides. Please join again anytime!
