Walking tour of a group of 5 with local english speaking Japanese lady who eagerly shared her enthusiasm about Kyoto history, religion, and culture. We went through old town Kyoto where no tourists roam, visiting important shrines and temples large and small, ornamental shops, tried hand made authentic tofu at a centuries old tofu shop, centuries old shops, historical sites and info, had a tea break, roam through Kiyomizu, and endng up at Kiyomizudera temple which is stunning in the Fall. It was a peaceful and enjoyable walk. Better than getting stuck in tourist traps and figuring out the public transportation system.
