Tour Details

Kyoto is where Japan's soul lives. Over a thousand temples, perfectly raked zen gardens, geishas gliding through lamplight this 7-day journey through Japan's ancient capital is unlike anywhere else on earth. You'll stay in a traditional ryokan, experience an authentic tea ceremony, walk through the Arashiyama bamboo grove at dawn, and leave carrying a profound sense of calm you won't find anywhere else.
