Flexible and thoughtful, no better available.

Go san is a kind-hearted person, he accommodated my change of schedule as far as he could. He asked why I opted for this tour and he could addressed with places to visit from extraordinary to wow. Go san was informative and talkative as well which allowed us to exchange observations and ideas of the local area spicing up the experience.

Takashi is amazing. Very thoughtful and easy to get along with. Never felt like you with with a guilde more like a local friend who introduced you to the culture, foods, people and places to visit and be a part of. Went out of his way to make us feel comfortable and make the visit that much more enjoyable. Thank you!

Spectacular guide!!

We are a mid 30s and 40s couple from the USA and UK, and we spent 2 full days with Nori experiencing Kyoto. It could not have been a better decision. We saw and learned so much that we otherwise would have missed, and his guiding is seamless. Definitely highly recommended!

Brilliant second trip with Toshi

Toshi suggested this as something we may enjoy and as we’d be looking at trying to get tickets arranged the trip through him. We were taken to a traditional, authentic and small sumo stable to watch morning practice and get a better understanding of the sport. It was something very special to witness and we thank Toshi for sorting this for us. Both trips we did we him were excellent. Many thanks again Toshi, our best wishes to you and your family Neil, Kirsty & Sam
