What Is a Private Taxi Tour of Fushimi Inari in Kyoto Like? A Licensed Guide's Report

The guests requested to travel by taxi. While part of the group looked after other members, the guest who made the booking enjoyed strolling around the Inari shrine. Because a buggy was being used, we avoided spots that required stairs. I am relieved that we were able to complete the tour safely. One point of reflection was that some members of the group were harder to engage with and preferred to go at their own pace, so I was unsure how best to talk with them. This time, the cloudy sky was fortunate, and it turned out to be a tour where fatigue was less of an issue.
