Overview

Quiet temples at dawn, kaiseki dinners and a private tea ceremony in Japan’s ancient capital.

Kyoto rewards those who travel slowly. Over nine days you will wander moss gardens before they open to the public, stay in a restored machiya townhouse and learn the art of tea from a master.

Our local hosts open doors that most visitors never see — from a geisha district evening in Gion to a ryokan night with a private onsen in the mountains above the city.
