MK KYOTO TRAVEL CENTER

The Yamahoko Portable Shrine procession is the symbol of the Gion Festival in Kyoto. We have prepared a plan that allows you to enjoy the procession from a Premium Seat! This is a rare opportunity to get up close and personal with the historic Gion Festival, one of Japan's three major festivals. After the procession, you can enjoy a meal on the riverbed at Kifune Shrine and sightseeing at Sanzenin Temple in Ohara, Kyoto. This plan not only offers Premium Seats that allow you to enjoy a more dynamic and up-close view of the parade than the general public, but also allows you to fully enjoy Kyoto through dining and sightseeing. You will also have use of a luxury Bentley for transport during the tour. We offer high-class transportation for pick-up and drop-off, as well as transport to dining and sightseeing locations.

Kumihama Sand Dune Melon from Kyotango City has a higher sugar content than other varieties and is known as a high-quality melon. In addition, melons grown in sand dunes are very juicy and popular. This time, after enjoying a seafood course lunch at Kumihama Original Hot Spring Building, an inn that boasts a large natural open-air bath with a flowing waterfall, we will introduce you to the specially selected high-quality melon with a high sugar content, Kumihama Sand Dune Melon. You can eat as much as you want for 30 minutes! After enjoying the juicy, sweet and melt-in-your-mouth Kumihama Sand Dunes Melon, head to the large open-air bath with mineral filled water flowing directly from the spring source♪ You will have ample time to stay (for 2 hours), so you can take your time & relax.

This plan includes transportation from your preferred location in Kyoto city and allows you to enjoy Kyoto cuisine in a traditional setting on a Riverside Terrace. At the lunch venue, Momijiya, there is a riverside terrace that juts out over the clear waters of the Kiyotaki River, and you can eat surrounded by the sound of the babbling brook. You can enjoy a delicious Riverside Lunch course here. The salt-grilled sweet-fish on the lunch menu is grilled over charcoal right in front of you, so you can enjoy it fresh. Applications are accepted for two or more people. Please take this opportunity to enjoy the seasonal summer scenery of Kyoto.
