Overview
Walking through a wooden gate just as the morning light hits the moss, your day begins! After wandering the streets of Kyoto, a few hours later you find yourself sitting on a tatami mat with tea in front of you and no other tourists in sight. Next thing you know, your Local Expert shows you down a small street that smells of grilled fish and wet stone, and you eat something you would have walked right past if you were on your own.
There are full day tours in Kyoto that move people through a checklist of famous temples. This one moves at the pace of your day. The temples, the meals, the side streets, chosen after your Local Expert has talked with you, not before.

Overview
En franchissant une porte en bois au moment précis où la lumière du matin caresse la mousse, votre journée commence ! Après avoir flâné dans les rues de Kyoto, quelques heures plus tard, vous vous retrouvez assis sur un tatami, une tasse de thé à la main, loin de tout autre touriste. Soudain, votre guide local vous entraîne dans une ruelle aux effluves de poisson grillé et de pierre mouillée, où vous dégustez un plat que vous auriez ignoré si vous aviez été seul.
Il existe des excursions d'une journée à Kyoto qui vous font visiter une liste de temples célèbres. Celle-ci s'adapte à votre rythme. Les temples, les repas, les ruelles, tout est choisi après discussion avec votre guide local, et non avant.
