What makes Private Kyoto Tour with Photography a unique experience ?
Capture stunning portraits amidst the iconic red torii gates winding through the forest.
The wooden stage offers breathtaking views of the city, and the surrounding area has gorgeous traditional scenery. Great with kimonos.
Create ethereal and serene portraits among towering bamboo stalks. We can also explore the surrounding area which has many unique photo spots, such as the river and kimono forest.
The pagoda framed by traditional streets offers a quintessential Kyoto shot. Very close to Kiyomizu-dera, at Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka Streets. This is the iconic “Gion” photo spot.
Gion is best visited in the spring. A calmer area with many old houses and unique scenery. Best with kimonos.
Reflective pond and golden temple provide a majestic and serene setting for portraits.
Lovely photos can be taken in the castle’s beautiful gardens. Note that the castle itself does not permit any photography inside. Nijo’s surrounding area offers some good hidden photo spots as well, particularly of gardens.
The bright red buildings and lush gardens provide a stately and elegant backdrop for portraits.
Known for its plum blossoms, this shrine offers vibrant and colorful portrait settings. Highly recommended in early spring.
The forested grounds and rustic bridges provide a tranquil and natural backdrop.
This narrow alley along the Kamo River is perfect for atmospheric evening portraits with its lantern-lit charm.
Highly recommended year round. Beautiful park with lanterns, cherry blossoms, and red fall foliage.
The expansive gardens and traditional architecture provide a grand setting. Kimonos recommended.
Very beautiful and underrated spot for photos that really come alive. The iconic Kyoto river.
Next to Maruyama Park. Very fun shrine with colorful buildings and lanterns.
