Immersing yourself in Kansai's attractions in a single day, you'll explore Kyoto's traditional culture and scenery under the guidance of a professional tour guide.

Your journey begins at the Kiyomizu-dera Temple, one of Kyoto's oldest temples founded in 778 and a national treasure of Japan. The temple is nestled within the Sannenzaka district, featuring a charming stone-paved path that leads to Gion's Higashiyama district. This area is rich with popular sightseeing spots including the famous Hanami-koji and Yasaka Shrine, making it an essential visit when in Kyoto.

Next, you'll head to Fushimi Inari Taisha, renowned for its "thousands of torii gates". This attraction draws numerous visitors from both Japan and abroad each year. Here, you can offer prayers for your loved ones and admire the shrine's ema (votive tablets), uniquely shaped like white foxes and ready for creative expressions.

Finally, at the foot of Mount Wakakusa in Nara City, lies Nara Park. Home to historical sites such as Todai-ji Temple and Kasuga Taisha, it offers a superb view of Nara's scenery. A stroll through the park reveals its most concentrated deer population.
