Where to Save and Splurge on Your First Trip to Kyoto

Traveler standing on a quiet residential street in Kyoto at dusk while checking directions on a smartphone. Walking through Kyoto’s historic neighborhoods is one of the best ways of getting around Kyoto, allowing visitors to discover hidden temples, local streets, and cultural landmarks between major attractions.

Create a Kyoto budget that supports what you want your trip to look and feel like; not what someone else tells you how you should spend.

Hello, I'm Chloe!

I'm the founder of The Roads Best Travelled and the travel writer behind every guide on this blog.

After studying abroad in Switzerland, backpacking across Europe, and staying in everything from budget hostels to fancy hotels, I learned that great travel isn’t about seeing everything; instead it’s about understanding why a place is worth your time.

With the help of my professional background in technical writing, I create thoughtful travel guides that combine history, culture, practical planning advice, and value-for-money recommendations.

I strive to help travellers explore with confidence, curiosity, and without being overwhelmed.
