Fuji was an excellent guide. He told is the history of Kyoto and drove us to all the “must see” places in Kyoto. We had wonderful day sightseeing with this Viator tour.

Thank you so much for an excellent tour of Kyoto. We very much appreciated all the great information given to us during the tour and Mr Fujimoto was an excellent driver and guide who put together a really thoughtful tour tailoring the day to fit our requirements and taking us to see some truly beautiful temples and shrines that are not on the tourist trail (as per our request). This was honestly a truly memorable experience. Thank you.

Fuji-San was a wonderful driver. Such a lovely character with an extensive knowledge about Kyoto. Despite massive crowds at most places we visited, we loved our tour. Highly recommended Fuji-san for your Kyoto adventure!

Our driver, Lexi, was very nice and picked us up in a comfortable van. She accommodated our requests to visit beautiful gardens, beginning with the wonderful Zen Sogenchi Teien which culminated in the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. We got lost in the town coming out of the forest, but she gave us map directions via WhatsApp after I gave our location and drove closer to pick us up! The rest of the itinerary were other Kyoto highlights. She accommodated our lunch stop request for sushi. Then she gave us map directions for sequential walks in the old streets of Sannenzaka & Ninenzaka culminating in sunset by Yasaka Tower. Beautiful! We were a bit overwhelmed by all the temples and crowds, and wished we had had some more tourist background on them so we could appreciate them more deeply. But this tour had not promised tour guide info. Otherwise, it was a full Kyoto day. The last highlight was when Lexi exclaimed "A Geisha!!" in full regalia that she spotted on the street on our way home!

We had a delightful time in Kyoto, thanks to our helpful driver Fujimoto-san. We were able to customize the itinerary, considering the pace and time we wanted to spend at each location. Fuji-san was punctual to pick us up, provided directions and tips at every location we visited, and always ready to share the history and information about Kyoto and the places we visited. With his good personality, Fuji-san brought cheers to our trip the entire journey. The van was clean and comfortable (there were 4 of us, all adults). Highly recommends this chartered driver for a private tour!

She took us everywhere we told her and gave us suggestions. She was so pleasant and even my kids told me they liked her. I would add a tour guide to my private car next time . Would have been a perfect experience.

The assigned driver was very thoughtful and helpful. She was fluent in English so there were no issues. I would recommend this service to my friends.
