ABOUT

In Kyoto, visitors can make use of a service that carries their luggage from the station to their accommodation,
while there are also many locations where they can store their luggage.
Discover and use the service ideally suited to your needs!
Bringing suitcases or other large luggage onto buses or trains can cause crowding and even prevent local residents from using their own transportation systems. Please refrain from bringing large pieces of luggage onto city buses.
Go "hands-free sightseeing" whenever possible so everyone can get around comfortably!
