Free walking tours in Uji

Kyoto is easy to see and surprisingly hard to understand. You can walk through its most famous sights in a single day, come away with good photos, and still have no real idea what you were looking at. That gap is the part we care about. ENDO is a Kyoto tour company. Our English-speaking guides explain Japan without romanticizing it and without assuming you already know the basics. We pay attention to what actually confuses visitors, and we build our tours around answering it. Our tours cover places like Fushimi Inari and Uji, home of Byodo-in and some of Japan's oldest shrine buildings. These places are popular for good reasons, and they're much better with someone who can tell you what you're looking at and knows when to step off the main path. The format is simple. Your guide shares what they know, you ask whatever you're curious about, and the tour moves at the pace of the conversation rather than a rigid schedule.
