During the walk, we explore the main shrine grounds while learning about Shinto beliefs, the meaning of torii gates, and the role of fox messengers in Japanese culture.

“Amazing tour with Takashi”
We had a great tour with Takashi, who is incredibly knowledgeable about history and culture. He took us to a variety of shrines and temples, shared many engaging stories, and explained traditions in a way that was easy to understand and appreciate.
We are a family of four with young adults, and everyone thoroughly enjoyed the experience. It was both informative and memorable, and we highly recommend this tour.

“Excellent Tour”
We were lucky to have Takashi exclusively since we were the only ones on the tour. Loved the stops with specific stories which we would have never known if we were by ourselves. He gave us excellent tips for vegan food and sights not to miss in Kyoto. All his suggestions were great!

“Disfruta del mágico Fushimi Inari al máximo”
Fushimi Inari es un lugar mágico, pero Takashi lo hizo aún más especial, iniciando por el horario sugerido temprano en la mañana con lo cual se aprovecha el lugar cuando aún no hay tantos turistas y podrás tener unas fotos espectaculares. Nos dio una guía en español lo cual apreciamos mucho pues no es tan fácil conseguir tours en nuestro idioma. Nos hablo sobre varios puntos del lugar a demás de sus propias experiencias como local. Lo recomiendo al 100%.
