“Kyoto tour”
Our tour guide in Japan, Tomo-san, was absolutely wonderful, knowledgeable, so nice, kind, and genuinely helpful. He really knew his stuff and shared so many interesting stories and facts that made everything come alive. What stood out the most was how thoughtful and patient he was, always making sure we were comfortable and enjoying ourselves. It felt like we were exploring Japan with a friend.

“Awesome Guide!”
Having Yoji as our guide in Kanazawa was the best decision we made on this trip! My family and I was a group of 6 and were fortunate enough to have Yoji show us around the city. He was so accommodating, patient, caring, and informative. Originally the tour was a walking tour but we requested a private car and Yoji made it happen. We were able to fit in all the destinations we wanted to see and although it was a packed day, we did not feel rushed at all. Coming into Kanazawa, we did not have have much expectations and Yoji made this trip memorable. He walked with us to each site, gave us the history and info about each place, but also never once rushed us. He ate with us, he made reservations for dinner for us, gave us recommendations, I can go on and on. He understood what my family liked and did his best to accommodate us. He even found a local sushi restaurant to accommodate our group because we wanted a sit-down place to eat. At the market, we tried the fresh scallops -- it was soooooo delicious. He even bought us some fried puffer fish to try and paid it out of his own pocket. These were items we would have never tried had it not been for his suggestion. My 5 star review is just another of the same because how can anyone give him anything less? He is simply the best. Yoji, thank you so much for taking the time to show my family and I around your city. Thank you also for your kindness in helping us around the train station! We wish you and your family the best in your next endeavors!

Definitely knows her way around town, subways and the best shopping places. Anything and everything you are looking for. Ended our day with a beautiful stop at a Japanese garden, inside the New Ohtani Hotel. Thank you for everything, so nice meeting you.
