Excellent Day in Kyoto With Mouloud - MOULOUD was a great guide. He was kind, patient, knowledgeable, professional, thorough and engaging. He enriched my day with stories, history, art and architecture. He even added another site with the bit of time we had leftover.

Buyers beware of scams on Viator!!! - This tour should having the the headline “walking tour”. It says “we’ll pick you up” which to me implies a car was involved. At $142 per person and there were 5 of us….i understood a car would be involved. The morning of body I found out it was walking all day for 8 hours. We had one person in our group with mobility problems…and older gentleman in his seventies. I asked to cancel for a full refund. My refund was denied. We did not go on this “Walking” tour for 8 hours and lost all of our money. Needless to say I will NEVER book with Viator again. The “what to expect” section also never said this is a walking tour.
