Even though these guys are fit. Their goal is to show you around the city, but truly this is for sightseeing and I mean, even though he seems like a human Superman, they can only go so fast. just to give you an idea of the pricing. • Typical pricing (per cart): • 10 min ≈ ¥3,000–4,000 (~$20–30 USD) • 30 min ≈ ¥7,000–9,000 (~$50–65 USD for two people) • 60 min ≈ ¥15,000+ (~$100+ USD) • Ebisuya example rates: • 30 min: ¥9,000 (1 person), ¥10,000 (2 people) • 60 min: ¥16,000 (1), ¥20,000 60 min ≈ ¥15,000+ (~$100+ USD Booking & Extras • Walk‑ups OK in non‑peak times, but book ahead (especially during cherry blossom/fall foliage seasons) . • Booking available on company sites like Ebisuya. • Extra fees: pickup/drop‑off outside stand locations, and ~¥1,000 for English-language puller . • You’ll get blankets, hot‑seat warmers, and sometimes souvenirs (for ≥60 min or ≥180 min) . 💪 Ethical & Fun Benefits • Pullers are trained professionals—fit, often student athletes or bilingual guides . • It’s non‑exploitative: they enjoy the job, and you skip animal-based transport. • A totally scenic, romantic, and culturally immersive way to see Kyoto. 🎥 What to Expect in a Reel 1.
