Private Guided Tour to Arashiyama - Journey with Guides in English, German, and Italian

Our immersive journey into Arashiyama begins at Saga-Arashiyama Station. As we gather, feel free to introduce yourself, mingle with fellow travelers, and soak in the bustling energy of this popular transport hub.

A stone's throw from the station, our first stop is the ethereal Bamboo Grove. Immerse yourself in the tranquility of this lush pathway, surrounded by the soothing whispers of towering bamboo stalks gently swaying in the wind. It's not just a walk; it's an embrace of serenity that you'll remember for a lifetime.

Stepping out of the bamboo serenity, we journey back in time as we approach the historic Tenryuji Temple. As a UNESCO World Heritage Site, this temple, with its Zen gardens and breathtaking artistry, offers an unforgettable insight into Japan's rich cultural past and the tenets of Zen Buddhism.

Following the captivating visit to Tenryuji, we allow ourselves a moment of relaxation. Enjoy a quick lunch, share your impressions with your travel companions, and prepare for the second part of our journey.

Our journey continues towards the extraordinary Arashiyama Kimono Forest. Here, you will marvel at a forest of sorts, made up of 600 vibrant pillars draped with unique kimono fabrics. It's an unskippable burst of color and creativity in Arashiyama.

Next, we find ourselves at the famous Togetsukyo Bridge. Standing on this architectural marvel, soak in the breathtaking landscape that unfolds - the calm Hozu River gently flowing below, framed by the striking Arashiyama mountains.

Our adventure takes an exciting turn as we trek to the Arashiyama Monkey Park. Feel your heart pound with anticipation as we ascend the mountain to interact with the playful Japanese monkeys in their natural habitat, all while savoring a panoramic view of Arashiyama that leaves many speechless.

We return to Saga-Arashiyama Station, wrapping up our adventurous journey through Arashiyama. Take this time to absorb the events of the day, share your favorite moments, or even discover a local delicacy before bidding your travel companions farewell.
