During the tour, you'll learn about the history of each of the monuments that you pass by thanks to an audio guide in English. Did you know that this city is the oldest capital in Japan, or where geisha live and work? This will be the perfect opportunity to discover all of Kyoto's secrets.

How Does it work?
Your ticket for the bus will have a validity of either 24 or 48 consecutive hours from the time it's used.

During this time, you can hop on and off the bus as many times as you'd like.
