Wonderful tour and guide, beautiful food

Wonderful food and history tour through Kyoto. We were lucky to be alone so had the guide all to ourselves. We tasted so many great things, our guide listened to what we were interested in trying and we learnt so much. Such a difference to have a guide, I would not hesitate to recommend!
