Family Friendly tours
One of the things I love most about traveling is the excitement of an unexpected, meaningful encounter — meeting someone or discovering a place that stays with you long after the journey ends.
I created these tours with the hope of becoming one of those special encounters for you in Kyoto.
We believe there is no city quite like Kyoto for experiencing the essence of Japanese culture. Beyond its historic streets and traditions lies the everyday life of the people who call this city home — how they live, raise their children, and carry their stories.
If we have the chance to meet, we would love to share a part of that Kyoto with you and your family.

We traveled to Japan with our girls who are 3 and 5 years old. We booked Yukie for a day long child friendly tour of Kyoto and also rented 2 stroller from her. All I can say is wow! Our day with Yukie was amazing. She made sure to incorporate things for the kids while also showing us some fantastic sights! My kids absolutely adored Yukie. They both wanted to sit by her and hold her hand. She was quick to diffuse any meltdowns and was such a great help with the kids. She even took them on a little walk around a garden while the adults took in the tranquility of the traditional Japanese house. I can’t recommend Yukie enough for any child friendly services you should need while in Kyoto. We miss you already, Yukie!
