AboutAbout Kyoto Scooter Tours
Kyoto Scooter Tour is a service that allows you to travel around Kyoto's tourist attractions on a luxury scooter, Vespa, made by the latest Italian company Piaggio. Kyoto is extremely popular with tourists from all over the world, and the number of tourists is increasing year by year, making it crowded everywhere. Buses, taxis, and trains are crowded, and even when you finally arrive at a tourist attraction, there is a long line. The tour is accompanied by staff who will guide you along the way and introduce you to the famous places, so you can travel safely and smoothly. There is no need to wait in a long line when you arrive.
You can visit hidden tourist spots that are a little far away that you cannot usually walk to, as well as special restaurants, cafes, and sweet shops that you cannot usually go to. In addition, we also offer hidden temple spots that can be visited exclusively by customers of the scooter tour, and special restaurant menus that are only available to customers of the tour. Why not ride a scooter to explore places that you could not go to and experiences that you could not have experienced on your previous trip to Kyoto?
