Review: comprehsensive, must-have sight-seeing guide for Kyoto - Most comprehensive book for walking around historical/religious/cultural sites in Kyoto. This book actually represents something like 58-60 walking tours, rather than 29 as stated in its title, if you are 60+ years old. Great organization by geographic area, nice maps tracing each walk, a wealth of information. An absolute MUST-HAVE if you are in love with Kyoto, as I am. The only recommendation I could make to the author for improving hsi book: provide a ranking (however subjective) of the various sites, e.g. with 3-stars (3 = absolute must-see; 2 = recommended; 3 = if you have extra time/stamina), so that the traveler pressed for time can better prioritize his/her walking tours. Neventheless, warmly RECOMMENDED, as no other book contains such wealth of information, plus theose extremely useful walking tour maps (akin to those found in Michelin guides). I just returned from a 3-week stay in Japan, with Kyoto as home base, and this book was even more useful (actually indispensible) now than it was 7 years ago, when I went to a week-long conference in Kyoto.
Review: Great walking guide. - If you plant visit Kyoto on your own this is a great guide. It features walks that take you to beautiful areas off the tourist trail. You can pick and choose which sites to visit. It allows you to see what you want and to go at your own pace. I highly recommend this guide.
