Hello there,

Kinkaku-Ji and Arashiyama are in the west of Kyoto while Fushimi Inari is in the south.

I would first go to Kinkaku-Ji by taking a bus from Kyoto station. Then use a taxi to Arashiyama, it's not that far and it saves you from figuring out the bus system. From there you can use the JR to Fushimi Inari station with a transfer at Kyoto station.

Hope this helps,
Daniel

Hi again!

I would estimate between 1,000-1,700yen. It does depends on traffic and what taxi company.

Hi again!

This one is easy. You could just walk the distance, it's not very far. Otherwise use the Nara city bus that stops near Todaiji and get off at Kasuga.
