The four-day, three-night tour investigates the sublime elements of Japan’s capital of culture and is now available with a 10% discount when the trip is taken before 30 September 2013.
Led by a local Backyard Travel guide, travelers on the tour will explore some of Kyoto’s numerous World Heritage Sites, starting with Nijo Castle and its stunning surrounding gardens.
The tour also includes a visit to Kinkakuji, the Golden Pavilion Temple, and the Daitoku-ji Zen temple complex which features one of Japan’s most famous rock gardens.
The Kyoto tour also includes a tour of a local sake brewery to learn all about Japan’s iconic alcohol and enjoy a taste testing session.I've been to Kyoto and visited Kinkakuji and Nijo Castle along with Kiyomizu-dera (threatened by Godzilla in 1993's Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II), Kyoto Station (the site of the final battle between Gamera and Irys in Gamera 3 (1999)) and saw Kyoto Tower (blasted by Godzilla in Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II). A discounted package tour of Kyoto should be of interest to kaiju fans.
