“Himeji castle and Nara with Hideo”

Hideo is one most professional and responsible tour guide I know for several reasons. First, he brought along photos to show us what certain places look like in different seasons or festivals so that we can imagine better. He provided theitinerary and maps to brief us before the start of each day. His knowledge is shown from the details he highlighted to us throughout our 2 days of tour. Besides the stated places of interest, Hideo showed us some landmarks of the Dotonbori area and Kuomon markets and tell interesting history about them. Hideo showed patience to listen to us when we asked specific questions . I will not hesitate to engage Hideo again if there is an opportunity.

I'm very glad to receive your excellent review. On the first day I showed you many devices to protect the Himeji Castle from enemy's attack. We saw showy billboards such as Glico, Crab, Dragon and the like on Dotonbori street. On the second day in Nara park you enjoyed giving crackers to deer and we saw the Great Bronze Image of Buddha at Todaiji Temple. I hope to see you again. I wish you and all your family good health and happiness.

“Excellent guide and experience”

Shuji took my group on two day trips for Osaka: Nara and Himeji Castle. They absolutely loved Shuji and I appreciated his quick replies to messages; it was very easy to work with him. Highly recommend, and I'll be using Shuji again for other trips in that area.

Thank you so much for kind words. I thought we would miss the best time to see the fall leaves, but we still enjoyed them. In Nara, deer greeted us as if they were old friends. We went to a lot of really pretty places, like the Isuien Garden. It was so comfortable there. Himeji Castle was also stunning, and we were able to visit and relax there. We were lucky because there weren't many visitors. We could also use the nice restaurant. Thank you for the nice gifts. Yes, I want to travel with you all again!
