“9 Stunden mit Yuki”
Yuki hat uns vom Hotel abgeholt und wir haben mit ihr 9 informative, interessante, abwechslungsreiche,kurzweilige Stunden verbracht! Nicht nur die japanische Geschichte und Kultur, sondern auch Vieles aus dem Alltagsleben hat sie uns vermittelt! Yuki ist eine ganz besonders nette, kompetente, herzliche, lustige Führerin! Sie hat sich 5 Sterne verdient! DANKE YUKI! ️️️️️️️

“A wonderful day with an insightful, friend who brought the history and Kyoto and Japan to life.”
We had a wonderful day visiting some of the sights of Kyoto with Akira. The itinerary and his knowledge beautifully explained the history of Kyoto and Japan, from the move of the capital from Nara through to the present day. He brought history to life with great passion, we couldn’t have had a better time. Akira’s passion and knowledge are unquestioned, but his ability to tie the narrative together across sites, linking each to build out the history was the stand out for us and our 12 year old son, who managed to spend a day away from devices and actually learn! A win for all!! We can’t speak highly enough of our experience with Akira.

Thank you so much for your kind review! It was a real pleasure meeting your family and spending the day together. I’m so glad you enjoyed Kyoto, and I hope you’ll keep these wonderful memories with you. Hope to see you again someday!

“Wonderful Introduction To Tokyo! ”
We had a great experience with Kody and Rene. On our first day, they took us to the Ghibli Museum and the Open Air Architecture Museum. We loved our lunch that day of tempura and soba noodles -- a restaurant that we would not have gone to without our guides. On our second day, we went to Nikko. We stopped at the water fall and toshogu shrine. We had a very nice lunch that day. Going to Nikko and specifically to Toshogu, was something we really wanted to do. We are very grateful that they were able to take us. On our last day Yoshi joined us as Rene was unable to join. He was a nice addition to the group. We went to the old fish market, where Kody was able to explain the different kinds of fish. After that we decided to change our schedule and make our way to the Shibuya crossing. We really appreciated the flexibility. We then went to have sushi at a very nice spot that we enjoyed. We visited one last shrine and then had coffee before we finished our tour. Overall, they always were punctual and polite. They were able to explain everyday Japanese life. We also thought having a second person in the car was a plus, because, when the driver couldn't find a parking place, we were still able to get out of the car and do what we have to do. We also appreciated that Kody took us to very cute and cozy coffee shops. Good coffee and nice people. Overall we had a very lovely experience. We recognize that we were a group of three with different interests, and some of us would have appreciated more history of Tokyo as this was our first visit, however, we could have also been vocal about that interest and we were not. We will definitely be recommending Kody to everyone else we know who is visiting Tokyo!
