“Himeji Castle and Koko-en Japanese Garden walking tour”

From the start, Nao was responsive to all my queries about the tour especially how to travel to Hemeji from my Osaka hotel. She was also crystal clear about our meet up point! Hemeji Castle was spectacular especially during a warm, dry day with Sakura in bloom. From meeting up at the train station, Nao was informative about Hemeji and Hemeji Castle past and present. I spent a most enjoyable time! Much appreciated Nao!

Thank you very much for your kind messages. We had a nice weather thanks to you, sunny girl. We were able to see the castle in full-bloomed cherry blossoms, which was great. Visit Himeji in fall next time. You can enjoy the view of the castle and the garden in red & yellow maple trees. Thank you again, and have a good flight home. Nao

“Non-informativde tour”

We planned a few hours stop in Himeji to visit the castle and the old town. Kazu met us at the train station as agreed and helped us with the logistics of storing our luggage, then led us to the castle. From then on, nothing much really happened. He has very little or almost nothing to say about the castle or its history, and just walked us around. What could have been an interesting tour ended up quite boring for the group, which quickly dispersed. The walk in the old part of town later was not much better, with nothing at all to say about it. Overall, a disapporing expensience. :(
