Japan Tour Reviews
Stanford K.
“Sotome Hidden Christian Region”
What a pleasant and interesting tour. We never knew the history and Mark T was our historical guide to this amazing place. The communication before the tour was excellent and Mark’s suggestions were great. We watched the movie “Silence” before the tour which gave great context. Mark is very knowledgeable and gives an interesting perspective living in Japan for a long time. We also enjoyed the beautiful scenery during the afternoon with lunch at a local restaurant. We enjoyed our day together and felt we were lucky to tour with Mark.

Take K.
Thank you for your warm review, Claudia, Ramon, and Nieves! I hope you enjoyed the view in Shimizu, even without Mt. Fuji. You were my very first guests that I guided in Shimizu even in the rain! I think you are all lucky and special people, like the auspicious pine, bamboo, and plum trees of Japan. Enjoy your work, everyone! I hope to see you back in Shimizu again. Best, Take
