Japan Private Car Tours

“Great tour of Kamakura with Tan”

Tan was a great guide and took us around Kamakura. She was very enthusiastic and knowledgeable about the place and overall we had a great experience

“Pleasant and timely private tour”

We were looking for someone to drive us to places outside of Kyoto it would have taken too long to get to in a day by public transportation, and Atsushi was very accommodating, timely and flexible in taking us where we wanted to go! From the bamboo forest to the Saiho-ji moss temple, then all the way up through the stunning cedar forests to Miyama and my favorite, the Little Indigo Museum, Atsushi provided a pleasant and efficient ride. Like another reviewer noted, he didn't share much about the historical or cultural significance of the sites, but while I would like more of that when I have a local guide showing me around, my partner was happy to be chauffeured in comfort and peace. He is very sweet and offered to purchase a magazine for me that we saw in the museum which was a lovely gesture. I've now learned it's always good to know and articulate expectations before hand - between traveling partners and with a private guide! Overall a very good experience.

“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!
