Japan Private Car Tours

“Excellent Kyoto Experience with Kanae-san!”

We had a wonderful day exploring Kyoto with Kanae-san. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable from start to finish. The early start allowed us to visit some of Kyoto's most beautiful highlights before the crowds arrived, which made the day even more special. One of the highlights was the amazing local lunch she recommended and arranged for us! it was absolutely delicious and something we probably would not have discovered on our own. Kanae-san was attentive throughout the tour, shared interesting insights about Kyoto's history and culture, and made us feel very comfortable. We highly recommend Kanae-san to anyone visiting Kyoto, especially first-time travelers looking for a personalized and memorable experience. Thank you for such a fantastic day! Love, Brooke and Mark

“An Unforgettable Experience ”

We booked a private tour of Otaru and Cape Kamui with Asad and his hospitality was truly second to none. From the initial planning stages to the final drop-off, Asad was punctual, deeply knowledgeable, and incredibly accommodating. What we appreciated most was his flexibility. We were able to adjust our itinerary to add a glass bead making class which was a fun experience. Asad handled booking the class for us, and we really appreciated that! He also handled all the local navigation and logistics perfectly, leaving us completely stress-free. He’s also an amazing photographer! We got lots of our best photos from our trip during our day with him. Asad is a true example of an excellent guide, and we will definitely book with them again. :)

“Next Level Tour Guide in Kyoto!!”

Akira was an exceptional guide for our historic tour of Kyoto! Our family was so impressed with his enthusiasm, flexibility, and knowledge throughout our exploration of many Kyoto temples and attractions. Akira provided fascinating historical insight and cultural context throughout the day, ensuring that our experience was meaningful and memorable. We began our tour at the bamboo forest, where Akira shared its history and took several wonderful family photos. We then visited the Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), where he helped us appreciate the significance of the site and captured more beautiful pictures. Akira even took us to visit his favorite temple—a peaceful, beautiful location that was far less crowded than many of the better-known attractions. Another main highlight was ramen at Akira’s favorite local ramen spot. No other tourists and ramen we would go back for!! Throughout the tour, Akira maintained a warm and positive attitude. We especially appreciated his candor, sense of humor, and willingness to answer all of our questions. He drove us safely and comfortably between destinations in his clean, air-conditioned and well-maintained car. Akira truly went above and beyond to ensure that our family had an enjoyable and memorable experience. His kindness, expertise, and dedication made our time in Japan even more special. We would highly recommend him to anyone visiting Kyoto!
