Private 3-Hour Juzu Prayer Bead Tour with Local Maker

Description

1/KYOTO – 8 billion people on Earth. One life-changing encounter in Kyoto. Our 1/KYOTO tours give you the opportunity to meet and spend a truly meaningful day with people who drive innovation in the historic city. We aim to transform your travel experience from ordinary sightseeing to meaningful encounters. With us, you’ll be able to find precious moments that go beyond typical visits to famous tourist spots. During this tour, speak, discuss, and connect with Mr. Kanbe, a maker of juzu – Buddhist prayer beads – through a dialogue at Shosei-en, a centuries-old Japanese garden. You’ll even be able to explore Mr. Kanbe’s store, and if you’re lucky, see how juzu are put together. For each part of the journey, a professional interpreter will guide you. A private taxi will also be available for transport from your accommodation.
