Itinerary

  • Byodoin Temple

    Byodo-in Phoenix Hall, is one of the most beautiful temples in Japan, no wonder it's drawn on Japanese 10-yen coins, expressing the pure land of the Buddhist heaven.

    1 hour

  • Shoju-in

    Seijuin-Temple is located in the south country-side of area of Kyoto. Although it needs an hour drive from Kyoto downtown, it's definitely worthwhile. It's the view of famous love-heart window in the tea room, which has been buzzed on Instagram many times. In this small mantra-Buddhist temple of 800 years, you can actually enter and walk inside the historical temple rooms known to be one of the most traditional Japanese styles. *700 yen as entry-fee and parking included in the tour!

    30 minutes

  • Wazuka-cho

    Drink the best and authentic Maccha tea (powdered green tea) at a cafe opened by local farmers of the famous Kyoto's Uji green tea, the no.1 brand in Japan. Eat Japanese traditional sweets (wagashi) made to be eaten with green tea!

    40 minutes

  • Ishitera Tea Plantation

    The green tea fields to the sky! The impressive "green" views of beutifully planted fields of Kyoto original green "Uji" tea are often introduced on Instagram and photographic websites as "one of the world best views" or "views you must see before you die". This place is located country-side of Kyoto Pref. where only accessible by cars. We park the car so you can get into the middle of fields and take as much photos as you want in the dreamy atmosphere.

Highly Recommend

We had a wonderful day and saw nature and shrines that we wouldn’t have been able to otherwise experience and learned so much!

Beautiful green tea fields

Published on Nov, 2024

The green tea fields in Ugi were simply breathtaking. It was a trip off the beaten track and Daiki Fukaishi was an amazing guide. He thoughts are unconventional and makes an interesting conversationalist.

Unique private tea farm tour with great guide

Published on Oct, 2024

We had a great day in the tea fields. Our guide Daiki was fluent in English and very knowledgeable and accommodating. We asked for a couple of changes because we had already been to Byodo-in temple. The tea plantation area was amazing even though it was a little drizzly. Suddenly a great was to visit the tea growing region with an expert guide

Outstanding

Published on Sep, 2024

What a fantastic tour and well worth the money. Our Guide Daiki was outstanding and very knowledgeable. The tour was not rushed and was just perfectly timed. The scenery was just as the pictures show. We would highly recommend this tour and a big thank you to Daiki

Amazing
