Experience the magic of Kyoto on a full-day sightseeing tour of Japan's cultural jewel. You'll visit Kyoto's most popular attractions by coach and enjoy a buffet lunch at the Kyoto Handicraft Center.

Known as the cradle of Japan's cultural heritage, Kyoto was Japan's capital and the emperor's residence from 794 until 1868. It is now the country's seventh largest city, with a population of 1.4 million people and a modern face, though it remains Japan's most traditional city.

Highlights on your comprehensive full-day tour of Kyoto include:

* Nijo Castle, the Kyoto residence of the Tokugawa Shogun
* Kinkakuji Temple (Golden Pavilion), home to perhaps the world's most authentic and exquisite Japanese garden
* Kyoto Imperial Palace, the residence of the Imperial family until the capital was relocated to Tokyo in 1868
* Buffet lunch at Kyoto Handicraft Center
* Heian Shrine, reflecting the elegance of daily life in the ancient Japanese court
* Sanjusangendo Hall, a long wooden hall housing 1,001 statues dating back to the 13th century
* Kiyomizu Temple, with sweeping views of Kyoto from its lofty terrace
