Perfect day in Hakone

One of my kids' favorite days in Japan was our day with Kochi in Hakone. We loved the ropeway and the open air museum. Over lunch, Kochi had created a trivia game for my kids to help them learn more about Japan's history and the Hakone area. Kochi was easy to talk to and very knowledgeable.

The "K" in Kaneo stands for "Kind"

Kaneo was such a thoughtful and kind guide. He messaged me before our flight from the U.S. to check on us because there was a typhoon expected in Tokyo as we would be flying. Our flight was delayed and that impacted our dinner reservation we had planned for our first evening. Because I couldn't contact the restaurant while we were flying, Kaneo was willing to call and adjust the reservation for us. Kaneo was very intentional about making sure we went to stores of interest to the kids when we walked around the Ginza area. He found a great stationary story for my daughter and golf store for my son. I was worried about navigating our first train ride in Japan the following day and Kaneo took us to the train station to show us around so we were ready the next morning. We are looking forward to another day with Kaneo when we return to Tokyo before heading home to the U.S.

Perfect day exploring Kyoto!

My family loved our day with Yuka. Before we even met her, Yuka was great about messaging in advance to plan out our customized day. We went to the Saiho-Ji moss temple in the morning. Yuka had a printed handout of the history of the moss temple, so everyone understood the history of it. After Yuka saw how much our kids enjoyed the Nishiki Market, she recommended we visit the basement floor of the main department store. I had heard how neat the "food floor" of the department store was from friends who had visited Japan. My kids enjoyed that add-on to our day. Yuka was so friendly and easy to talk to. We would recommend Yuka to any family.
