Japan Private Car Tours

“An Outstanding Guide Who Made Hubbys 60th Birthday Truly Special!”

If you’re visiting Nagasaki, I cannot recommend Katsu highly enough! He was absolutely outstanding, and our day with him was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. Katsu was warm, friendly, incredibly knowledgeable and wonderfully prepared. He even had a binder filled with fascinating historical facts and photographs that brought Nagasaki’s history to life. We visited Dejima Trading Post, the Atomic Bomb Museum, Peace Park and other historic sites. We enjoyed spectacular city views, explored Glover Garden and saw the beautiful Oura Cathedral. Katsu also took us to a fantastic Wagyu beef restaurant, Yakiniku Pure, for a delicious lunch, followed by a lovely stop at June Coffee. What made Katsu exceptional was his thoughtfulness. I have a minor mobility issue, and he made sure the pace was comfortable without us missing out. He also had an incredible talent for finding parking spots right beside every attraction! It became a running joke, and we had such fun teasing him about his parking skills. He even found a Pokémon-themed manhole cover for me because he knew I loved Pokémon. It’s these little touches that make someone truly special. The most touching moment was when Katsu surprised my husband with a beautiful ceramic gift for his 60th birthday. It was an incredibly kind and unexpected gesture that we’ll always treasure. Katsu’s knowledge, kindness, humour and genuine care made our day unforgettable. He wasn’t simply showing us Nagasaki; he was making sure we had a wonderful experience and created lasting memories. If you’re considering a private tour in Nagasaki, book Katsu! You absolutely won’t regret it. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would happily tour with him again. Thank you, Katsu, for making Drew’s milestone birthday so special!

“A true Nikko Guide!”

Thank you, Keiichiro, for such a wonderful day in Nikko! You knew exactly where to take us to experience the very best sights, and having a car made such a difference in how much we were able to see in a relatively short time. You planned the day so well, making the most of every moment without ever feeling rushed. We truly appreciated your knowledge of the area and the opportunity to see so many beautiful and memorable places. You helped make our visit to Nikko a really special experience. Thank you again for such a great day!

“Half day tour Shimizu”

We spent a lovely morning with Take K. While he showed us around his lovely city. We found him to be professional, very knowledgeable, very passionate and a lovely person. The personalised gifts he gave us was a special touch and has pride of place in our holiday memory cabinet.
