Japan Tour Reviews

Tokio mit Ayami

Ayami war eine äußerst angenehme und engagierte Führerin. Sie ist jederzeit auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen und hat uns viele beeindruckende und sehenswerte Orte in Tokio gezeigt – ganz flexibel per U-Bahn, Bus und zu Fuß. Dabei war sie stets freundlich, hilfsbereit und äußerst fachkundig. Besonders hervorzuheben ist ihre sympathische Art, die die gesamte Tour zu einer rundum schönen und entspannten Erfahrung gemacht hat. Sie war nicht nur eine kompetente Guide, sondern auch eine sehr angenehme Begleitung.

Wonderful guide!

Kay was waiting for us as we disembarked the ferry. Her communication during the booking process and leading up to our tour was excellent. It was a very wet day but Kay was very thoughtful & accommodating to ensure we were able to see as much as possible. Her passion for her city was infectious and her explanation of the atrocities of the atomic bomb were numbing. We had a great time with Kay and loved her knowledge, passion and sense of humour. We would highly recommend Kay to anyone looking for a wonderful, insightful and enjoyable day.

Thank you so much for your kind review. I truly had a wonderful time with all four of you—it was such a fun experience. I’m still laughing when I think about all those (so many!) Australian jokes! I feel very happy and grateful that I could share even a small part of your special time together. Please come visit Hiroshima again—I’ll make sure to find an even more fun slide for you next time!  Hugs, Kay

An Unforgettable Day in Osaka

We had an amazing experience in Osaka thanks to our guide, Jose David. From the very beginning, communication with him was absolutely perfect — clear, easy, fast, and always thoughtful. He made everything effortless and allowed us to enjoy the city without worrying about logistics. Jose David took us through many different parts of Osaka and showed us places we never would have discovered on our own. He explained the history, culture, and atmosphere of each area in a way that made the city come alive. One of the highlights of the day was discovering okonomiyaki with him. Thanks to Jose David, we were able to try this classic Osaka dish in an authentic place and understand more about why it is such an important part of the local culture. It became one of our favorite memories of the trip. We also wanted to try the famous Japanese cheesecake, but when we arrived there was an incredibly long line. Jose David gave us a fantastic tip: instead of waiting, we bought the whole cake, which had just come out of the oven and was practically the exact same experience — fresh, warm, and delicious. It saved us a lot of time and became another one of those small moments that made the day so special. If you are visiting Osaka and want a guide who is knowledgeable, friendly, organized, and truly excellent at communicating, I cannot recommend Jose David highly enough. He made our time in Osaka unforgettable.

Private Tours in Japan

Learning about Japan has never been easier with our local, expert tour guides leading the way, from a tour through Okayama, to the inner gems of Shikoku.

Ready to take on Japan’s sites and go beyond the usual? Kurashiki's Bikan Historical Quarter is a beautifully preserved Edo-period district, and with a knowledgeable tour guide, you can encounter traditional architecture, willow-lined canals, and charming shops. From historical context, to share stories about the area, it’s time to see the land of the rising sun the right way.

To see a side of Japan not commonly noticed, talk to a local tour guide about peaceful pockets of relaxation like Iya Valley, a rugged setting with high cliffs, vine bridges, and traditional thatched-roof houses waiting to be explored.
