Thanks for booking the Early Bird tour!
We are looking forward to meeting you bright and early for our upcoming Early Bird tour. It’s not easy getting up so early but I am sure you will be pleased when we meet at the first meeting point which is JR Inari Station and we get a chance to explore the famous Fushimi Inari Shrine with it’s thousands of red gates in the relative calm of the early morning.
From there we will take a train and taxi to Kiyomizu Temple and the city will then start to be coming alive. Hopefully we can get there at around before the busses start to unload . After exploring the amazing Kiyomizu temple we will see a little of the surrounding area, but we need to catch another cab and/or train to Arashiyama which is about 25min ride and we will reach the bamboo grove. This is a special place and I am sure you will be impressed. This is a great place to end the tour as you will easily be able to discover a lot of the area once the tour concludes.
We usually finish in just under four hours, and by then you will have seen the top three places in all of Kyoto before breakfast! Note that we don't stop for a meal during the tour but you can always get a snack from a convenience store along the way or have something to eat after the tour. From here you can explore Arashiyama or maybe the Golden temple on your own. We will be happy to give you tips on places to go and things to see.
We suggest that you take a train or taxi to the meeting point and unless you have signed up for a private tour, there will likely be a couple of other other likeminded travellers joining us. For that reason, we ask that you do your best to research the best route and timetable to get there on time.
We really look forward to showing you these magical places at the very best time of day to explore them.
