About
Welcome to the cultural heart of Japan - the magnificent city of Kyoto. For over a millennium, Kyoto reigned as the imperial capital of Japan and its impact on Japanese culture, traditions, and history is unparalleled.
On this self-guided audio tour, you'll explore the narrow alleyways and timeless landmarks that make Kyoto such an enchanting place. From serene Zen rock gardens and grand palaces, to lively markets and crimson-hued sunsets at Fushimi Inari Shrine, every turn offers a new feast for the senses.
We'll visit many of Kyoto's 17 UNESCO World Heritage sites, including the iconic golden pavilion of Kinkakuji and the impressive shogun castle at Nijo Castle. You'll learn about the city's unique blend of religious influences like Buddhism and Shinto, which have indelibly shaped Kyoto's identity.
So take a deep breath of the cedar-scented air and prepare to be transported back in time as you discover the true essence of this extraordinary Japanese city. Let's explore Kyoto!

About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- random_shid0 contributionsNice option to save 100$s on city toursI didn't even listen to the Audio Guide. But it is reliable and well organized. After a couple of days (reasonable amount), the access to the audio files is cut.Written 24 June 2023
- lynnmU6707QW0 contributionsCouldn’t recommend Trailfinders highly enough. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Fabulous in every way. Self guided, travelled as couple visiting Tokyo, Kyoto, Hiroshima, Miyajima, Hakone. Long awaited as booked for March 2020… Covid!!!! ..,,, Did it live up to expectation 3 years later - you bet it did - surpassed all expectations which were high. Trailfinders are just great in getting everything organised, flexible and with such good assurances. No surcharges. Initially refunding all our monies paid for cancelled trip promptly. We felt therefore we had to just go back to the team to rebook. Our consultant Michael in Kensington was friendly efficient and so understandingly patient. Full marks Trailfinders we hope to be back for return trip to Japan.Written 12 May 2023
- rbodnicki0 contributionsUnderwhelmed.Pretty exhaustive list of Tokyo sightseeing locations are covered. However the depth of the audio summaries leaves a lot to desire. I ended up reading more online and at the location versus using this guide. I would not recommend unless you’re seeking a very high-level summary of many different sightseeing spots in Tokyo.Written 4 May 2023
- FORTUNE9990 contributionsExcellent place to visitOne one best place to be visited in Coimbatore. Great collections of cars . One can develop his science knowledge in the science exhibition. But the entrance fee is too high.Written 25 May 2019
- murali_jaish0 contributionsMust visit place for everyoneWonderful collection of vintage cars, well kept and maintained, it's a must visit spot in Coimbatore, kids will enjoy it.Written 14 April 2019
- Bonny M0 contributionsUnexpected and interestingA very informative, unexpected and interesting private collection of cars and motorcycles through the different erasWritten 30 March 2019

どこで使えるのかわかりませんでした。スマホで音声をダウンロードできるのでもなく、再生用機械が各スポットにあるでもなく…返金してもらいたいぐらいです。

Thank you for your personal opinion on this feedback, requesting you to please read about this tour program details in the overview section, what to expect section, and additional information section (for your information, we do not include unnecessary details with imagination stories in audio commentary). Please listen to all attractions audio guide, do not come to a conclusion for writing review after just listened one (or) two attractions (which itself, not has much necessary information’s to include on it). Finally please do not write false information on reviews which you have not read properly and listened to entirely. However, we are one of the best Self-Guided audio tour provider at the lowest price in the city.
