“Tour with Kwan around Changdeokgung Palace and Seoul”

My family and I had an excellent full day tour with Kwan. He first picked us up and took us to the Changdeokgung Palace, where he was extremely knowledgeable about the history of the Palace and Korea. He answered all our questions and we all learnt so much from Kwan. We also went to a food market and tried Korean market food which was delicious and made seamless with Kwan’s recommendations and ordering- something we would have be unable to do without him. Further we explored the traditional Hanbok village and had great conversations together over coffee. We highly recommend Kwan as a tour guide - he put together an unforgettable day in Seoul for our family. We would definitely go on a tour with Kwan again! Thank you so much Kwan.

“Nature Abounds in Nikko”

We would not have been able to see half of what Nikko offered without Keiichiro! Nature abounds all around you with waterfalls too numerous to count, mountains, and lakes. Keiichiro showed us the beauty of the land as well as the colorful and ornately-carved Toshogu shrine to the simple statues at Kanmangafuchi Abyss. He went the extra mile recommending restaurants in Tokyo and helping us navigate the train system, even speaking to the station staff on our behalf. He was patient and flexible when our arrival was delayed. We were lucky to have him as our guide!

“A Must-Book Guide for First-Time Visitors”

If you’re visiting Japan for the first time, I can’t recommend Grant highly enough. From the moment we met, he tailored the entire day around our family’s interests while also making sure we gained the confidence to navigate Japan on our own. One of the most valuable parts of the tour was learning how to use Tokyo’s transportation system. What initially felt overwhelming became easy thanks to Grant’s clear explanations and hands-on guidance. That knowledge alone made the rest of our trip so much more enjoyable. Grant also customized our itinerary and was incredibly flexible, even adjusting our plans on the fly to accommodate special requests we made during the tour. Nothing ever felt rushed or scripted. What truly sets Grant apart is his deep knowledge of Japan’s history and culture. He didn’t just show us the sights—he brought them to life by providing fascinating historical context that made every stop far more meaningful. Our first day in Japan couldn’t have been a better introduction to this incredible country. Thanks to Grant, we left feeling informed, confident, and excited for the rest of our journey. We would recommend him without hesitation to anyone visiting Japan.
