Heatstroke Prevention Advice
Please note that there is a considerable distance from the nearest transportation options to the reception of Kyoto State Guest House. Additionally, the gravel paths within Kyoto Gyoen National Garden can be difficult to walk on, and there is limited shade. As hydration is not available during the guided tours, we recommend drinking plenty of water before your visit to prevent heatstroke.

Currently, we are operating guided tours only.

We recommend making an advance reservation for guided tours. By clicking on the date you wish to visit, you will be redirected to the reservation page.

Advance reservations are available until 12:00 PM the day before each tour. Same-day admission will be available based on remaining tour capacity.

Children aged 12 and younger, including toddlers and infants, will not be admitted.

Self-guided tours will not be offered during guided tour periods.
