Enjoying Kyoto in the early summer while beating the heat AND the crowds is a task that MK Taxi requests you leave up to us. All you need to do is sit back in air-conditioned luxury, while your private English-speaking driver takes you around on our carefully-selected summer one-day tours.

These tours are guaranteed to show you sides of Kyoto that you never knew existed, and further deepen your love of our wonderful city. From taking in a handful of UNESCO World Heritage sites and Japanese National Treasures on the Pearl course, to experiencing the many-splendored floral beauty on show at Kyoto’s smaller, off-the-beaten-path temples on the Tourmaline and Malachite course, this wealth of luxury can all be yours, only with MK Taxi private chauffeur-guided tours.

Picturesque and Peaceful Kyoto The best off-the-path summer spots!

Seasonal May Tours for Kyoto, 2018

●　Pearl Course – Experience five beautiful temples and shrines in and around Kyoto, including two UNESCO World Heritage sites (Tenryu-ji temple & Ryoan-ji temple) and two designated ‘Places of Scenic Beauty’ (Chishaku-in temple & Heian Jingu Shrine). A great way to escape the crowds, but still lap up the luxury!

●　Tourmaline Course – One for the flower lovers, or just for the discerning traveler who wants to wind down in the ancient capital, whilst being surrounded by stunning natural beauty. Includes a visit to one of Japan’s National Treasures (Sanzen-in Temple), a secret garden at Myoman-ji Temple, and more irises and azaleas than you can shake a stick at!

●　Malachite Course – Hidden beauty is what Kyoto is all about, and this tour will take you further into the ever-living mystery that this city holds. It offers a visit to a lesser-known UNESCO World Heritage pagoda at Daigo-ji temple, a chance to try Buddhist painting surrounded by Important Japanese Cultural Properties at Zuishin-in Temple and enough soothing greenery to calm even the most troubled soul!
