Customizable Private Tours with Local Tour Guides

“Disappointing on multiple levels”

We booked a private tour of the Louvre for 2.5 hours for us and our two kids (12 and 14 years old) for 275 Euro not including admission to the Louvre. When I booked, I made clear that we wanted a tour that appealed to our teens. When we met our guide, I repeated that request. Unfortunately, our guide had no idea how to make the Louvre interesting for teens. In fact, she was extremely inflexible: she had a lot of facts and wanted to tell them. And that was the second disappointment: in a small private tour, I expect a dialogue, not a monologue. But she didn't seek a conversation with us. In fact when we stopped a few times to look at a painting, she kept going and talking. And now we're at the third disappointment: we had headphones on and she had a mic. Unfortunately the quality was awful. I mentioned this twice. First she switched some headphones and then the mic. We said it was still hard to understand and she apologized, but insisted on using the poor equipment instead of just talking directly to us in a small circle. After that I asked her twice to speak slower and she said she would, but didn't. Finally, although her English grammar was very good, her accent was very, very hard for us to understand.

“Perfect day exploring Biei and Furano”

After getting a headache trying to figure out how to use the Lavender train and buses to get around Biei and Furano, I threw in the towel and decided a guide would be the less frustrating and more efficient way to go. BEST DECISION EVER!!! My 2 kids and I had an AMAZING day in Biei and Furano with Mayu. I LOVED Mayu's energy and demeanor from the get go. Her knowledge of the area and history brought the area to life! She is also very flexible and kindly accommodated me when I wanted to visit a flower farm we were driving by that was not on the itinerary. We really enjoyed her company, it felt like we were driving around with a friend. Mayu is an excellent, safe driver, and the ride in her cute car was smooth and comfortable. The kids (12 and 15) liked her a lot - which is a great endorsement! I HIGHLY recommend Mayu's tours, you will have a WONDERFUL day wherever you go! A++++++++++++++++++

“Awesome service, would use again any day!”

The service was perfect. We had already seen multiple castles and shrines so we asked if we could change up the itinerary. Driver accommodated our request and said we could create our own itinerary for our time frame. We even were running out of time and was given a chance to extend if we wanted. Very professional and kind. Can't say thank you enough.
