A Three-Day Kyoto Journey with Toshiyo – History, Heart, and Unforgettable Hospitality

We had the absolute pleasure of spending three days in Kyoto with our incredible guide Toshiyo! Our experience with her was truly unforgettable. Her deep knowledge of Kyoto’s rich cultural heritage added meaning and magic to every site we explored. At Fushimi Inari Taisha, she shared insightful stories about Shinto traditions and the symbolism behind the endless vermilion torii gates, turning a famous landmark into a spiritual experience! Kiyomizu-dera Temple was equally captivating under her guidance, where legends of ancient pilgrims and architectural marvels came to life with grace and clarity. Each day was thoughtfully planned, balancing historical depth with personal touches adding a quick visit to the famous Gion festival! Her gentle, kind personality made us feel comfortable from the very first moment, and her ability to connect history with human emotion made Kyoto feel deeply personal. Toshiyo didn’t just guide us—she gifted us three days of connection, discovery, and heartfelt appreciation. If you’re looking for a guide who blends scholarly insight with genuine warmth, you’ll be lucky to tour Kyoto with her. Also she amazing walker so make sure you keep up!! :) Thanks again Toshiyo for an amazing experience in Kyoto!!

Dear Troy and Ze, Thank you very much for having me as your guide and writing me the kind review. I appreciate your big heart. It was a very good idea to visit early to avoid crowds. Arigatogozaimashita. Toshiyo

Fantastic Guide

Keiko T. was a wonderful guide. She met us at our hotel and was prepared and ice packs for an our tour in the hot, but beautiful Tokyo. Keiko spoke perfect English and was knowledgeable, funny, and provided insights and information beyond the requisite touristy info. She taught us how to use the subway for example. She provided guidance on navigating Tokyo Station to purchase tickets and travel to Kyoto on the bullet train. She is an excellent guide - would hire her again and again. ありがとうございます (arigatou gozaimasu).

Michelle, thank you for your kind review. I also truly enjoyed spending time with you. It was a really hot day during our tour, but I'm glad you enjoyed visiting some of Tokyo’s must-see spots and experiencing the city. If you ever have a chance to come back, please let me know — I’d be happy to show you around even more!

Kyoto Foodie Tour w/ Kanae

Kanae was absolutely amazing!! She took me to several nice spots where the food was delicious and not over priced like alot of the tourists spots!! Additionally we had great conversations about cultural aspects as it relates our countries! If you are ever in Kyoto and want more than a food tour but someone that cares about your experience please book with Kanae for a wonderful experience!
