Allocate Day 1 to Arashiyama (bamboo grove, monkey park) and Fushimi Inari before 7am. Day 2 for Higashiyama with Philosopher's Path in the morning, Gion in the evening for potential geisha sightings. Day 3: include Nishiki Market, plus a modern contrast like the Kyoto Railway Museum or Kinkaku-ji to break the temple fatigue.
