I have traveled through over 30 countries/regions, giving me the English ability to give you a great tour in Kyoto, Nara, Osaka and more.

Exploring Sagano
With five guests from Canada, I first took a bus to Otagi Nenbutsuji. After we enjoyed funny Rakan statues there, we walked through the peaceful countryside of Sagano all the way to Togetsukyo Bridge. Along the way, there were many things to enjoy - not only temples, but also stone statues, gardens, bamboo groves, pottery shops, Japanese sweets - The guests really seemed to enjoy the experience.

Ryoan-ji and Kinkaku-ji
Although it was raining, we visited Ryoan-ji and Kinkaku-ji (the Golden Pavilion). Even in the rain, I believe the beauty of the dry landscape garden at Ryoan-ji was fully conveyed to the guests from overseas. They sat for a while, quietly gazing at the dry rock garden.
