Kyoto is a popular tourist destination with millions of visitors annually. As such, many of its famous landmarks can become crowded and chaotic during peak hours.
Ai was a great guide. She was very pleasant with flawless English and very knowledgeable for someone so young. She was also very good at taking pictures of the famous sites. This is an early starts and obviously you do encounter other tourists at the landmarks but I would not like to be at them during peak hours. Recommended
