Tour Details

  • ….. 1. Kinkaku-ji (The Golden Pavilion) · 60 minutes
    Capture Kyoto’s most dazzling landmark—the golden temple shimmering over its reflective pond. The combination of gold leaf, still water, and manicured pines makes for a perfect composition.

    ….. Commute · 45 minutes

    ….. 2. Arashiyama Bamboo Grove · 60 minutes

    Begin your day in the serene Arashiyama district. Walk through the iconic Bamboo Grove, where towering green stalks create a cinematic, dreamlike setting.

    ….. Commute · 40 minutes

    ….. 3. Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine (10,000 Orange Torii Gates Path) · 90 minutes
    Finish your day walking through thousands of red torii gates that snake through the mountain. Come late afternoon to catch golden-hour light filtering through the gates—ideal for soft, magical shots with fewer crowds.

    The remaining time, if any, accounts for commuting between locations, transitions, regrouping, and settling into each segment, which naturally expand the overall duration.
