Sky Hop Bus Kyoto

The Sky Hop Bus runs on a route that allows you to see the essentials of Kyoto.

To visit the city in comfort

The Sky Hop Bus is a double-decker bus that travels around Kyoto, taking you along the city's most popular tourist spots and allowing you to hop on and off as many times as you like at the stops. With this fun, convenient method of transport, you can visit the must-see sights at your leisure.

A bus passes every hour along the route, allowing you to stay in one place for 1 hour (or even 2 hours) and then take the bus to the next place.

Organise your day by choosing the places you want to visit, at the pace of the buses.

Explanations in your own language

You can also, if you prefer, stay on the bus, admiring the view through the large windows and taking in the explanations. In fact, on the bus, you will be given an audio guide in 7 languages which, thanks to its built-in GPS, will provide you with explanations in your own language about the attractions you will pass by. 

The ideal route

The bus departs from Kyoto Station and passes through many of the must-see places in Kyoto: Karasuma, Nijo Castle, Kinkakuji, the Imperial Palace, Ginkakuji, Gion, etc.

The bus operates from 9am to 6pm and your ticket is valid for 12 hours.

The bus has free Wi-Fi available.

After ordering, you will receive a voucher which you can exchange on the bus for a ticket.
