If you're coming to the Gion Festival for the first time, you might be just overwhelmed by the crowds and leave without really understanding the true meaning of this world famous event. Even if you understand what it's all about, it's hard to know where to even start sightseeing because the festival area is so large!
That's why this MK tour is so great! In a small-number group, you will be lead around the main sites, with the experienced guide explaining all about the Portable Shrines and showing you the best folding screens displayed around the town. All of this while avoiding the crowds as much as possible! Get the most out of the Gion Festival on this tour!

We had an unforgettable experience because of Shozo Saka, who guided us two days through Kyoto and the areas close by. Shozo picked us already up at the train station and understood from the first minute our deep interest in the history of Kyoto. He made always the best suggestions and showed us very unique places and trails. He made our wishes came true and because of his excellent English we learned so much in a very unique and spacial way. Besides the memories we have, Shozo prepared us with little brochures and saved our tickets from the entrances we bought as well as he took perfect pictures of us. Even after two weeks already at home we still can't believe how precious we are to make those memories. Thank you Shozo. See you next time :)

We used their services twice for long trips in Kyoto, they have excellent service, on time, very helpful and friendly.
First driver - unfortunately I don’t remember his name - came on time, took us for a long road trip.
He knew shortcuts which google maps did show which saved us almost 25~30 minutes and we avoided traffic.
Second driver - Shozo Saka - he was very helpful as well, on my second trip it was photography trip, he helped me watching my son during my photo shoot in multiple locations.
Without his assistance, I wouldn’t get the photos that I wanted.
The trip was 9:30hrs long
Thank you MK taxi for the great service and thank you for choosing the right people for the right job.

Everyone who plans on getting a private car to drive around Kyoto, you must ask for Mr. Shozo Saka!
He was an amazing driver and guide, helping us all the way from getting the right lunch place to guiding us through the beautiful temples of Nara. He spoke perfect english and knew everything about the history of Japan overall and deep insights into Kyoto, Nara etc.
Thank you Shozo Saka!!
