Kyoto Fushimi District Food and History Tour
Overview
Available languages
5 hours
Mobile ticket
The Fushimi district is not about the famous "Fushimi Inari" and its thousand gates.
It is about learning more about one of the most significant moments in Japanese history and exploring an area in Kyoto that hasn't been conquered by international travelers and still keeps its authenticity and reflects an amazing local vibe just a few minutes away from Kyoto station.
Pour la demande de guide francophone:
Nous ne pouvons pas garantir la francophonie pour un tour partagée, car mélangeant plusieurs nationalités, la priorité deviendra l'anglais.
Tous nos guides parlent au minimum anglais et japonais, ce qui veut dire que le français sera une langue supplémentaire. Le guide pourra donc alterner entre anglais et français si nécessaire.
Pour garantir la disponibilité du guide francophone à la date souhaitée, veuillez nous contacter à l'avance, afin que nous puissions confirmer qu'un guide francophone est toujours disponible pour votre date de réservation.
Merci pour votre compréhension.

5.00My friend and I had a great experience with Tom. He was very knowledgeable about all the areas he took us to. He took us to places I wouldn’t have even thought about going. I left the tour feeling like I learned a lot. Would recommend.
The most beautifully-curated and authentic Kyoto tour for tourists, culture and history nerds!!!

5.00My partner and I did this tour with Remy today. He is SO knowledgeable, accommodating and passionate about history. This tour is perfectly curated for tourists who want to experience true Kyoto culture (and great cheap food!) on top of the classic touristy destinations. Remy knew the perfect spots to get photos inside Fushimi Inari (without being stuck in crowds at all!!) and the rest of the tour was at destinations outside of classic overpriced tourism spots (and therefore no crowds!!) but filled with the most incredible authentic Kyoto experiences and history, and beautiful social-media worthy scenic spots that we never would have discovered ourselves! 🥰 It is clear the amount of care and consideration that the Japan Tour Adventure team has put into this tour, forging relationships with local Kyoto historical sites owners and earning a well-deserved reputation as a kind, respectful tour agency that just wants to show the best parts of Kyoto to everyone ❤️ My partner and I cannot recommend Japan Tour Adventure (especially Remy) enough. By far the best tour of our Japan experience. 1000000/5 ⭐️
Wonderful tour off the beaten track

5.00A must-join tour showcasing the best of historic Fushimi district. Remi, our guide, was thoughtful and informative. The tour was well-designed and hit just the right spot for sake-lovers and history-buffs alike. Was a great experience.
Remi brings a wealth of knowledge about Japan and the area to make for a memorable tour.

5.00Remi was amazing and not only did he give us a great tour of the Fushimi District but he was so helpful going above and beyond with helping us navigate our rail plans. We really enjoyed all the sake history and tastings and our lunch was incredible. Thank you so much for a memorable day.
