Japan Private Car Tours

“Great Day in Kochi”

We had booked the Kochi Highlights Tour with Hiroshi during our Diamond Princess cruise stop in Kochi. We had a full day starting with Kochi Castle, lunch at Hirome Market, strolling through the Obiyamachi shopping arcade, visiting the Chikurinji Temple and finishing with the Makino Botanical Garden. We had a wonderful day exploring the highlights of Kochi and were well taken care of by a local expert. Hiroshi was knowledgeable, attentive and patient, he introduced us to local dishes and the Konatsu fruit and took care in ensuring that my partner was able to enjoy a vegan meal at Hirome Market. We also made short stops at a local grocery store to pick up Inaka-zushi - countryside sushi - and at a gift shop that sold locally produced products. On top of all this, Hiroshi took amazing photos of us and provided a photographic perspective that on our own we would not be able to capture. We had a great memorable day and look forward to booking another tour with Hiroshi that next time we are in Kochi!

“Mt Fuji Day Trip”

Kota was great to work with, we spent a lot of time planning our customised tour. Kota was lovely and patient with all my questions and ideas. He explained what was possible and what would not work. The tour group were corporate executives, and I believe Kota had as much fun as the executives. It was a casual tour which suited most of the group, although a couple executives would have preferred more storytelling/history/facts. They had a gorgeous day at Mt Fuji and the weather remained clear, sunny and beautiful for the whole day. Comments on Mt Fuji was it was spectacular and breathtaking. The group opted to experience the bullet train back to Tokyo and commented it was fast but the train itself felt tired and in need of an upgrade, the group were in first class (green).

“Kyoto for the day”

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to meet you and spend time together exploring the beauty of Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan. It was a great pleasure to share this wonderful day with you and to experience some of Kyoto’s most beautiful places together. I sincerely hope our paths will cross again in Kyoto someday. Perhaps we can sit down together, enjoy a nice lunch, and share a beer while catching up and creating more wonderful memories. Thank you again for your kindness and friendship. I wish you safe travels and all the best.
