“Tour Kobe learning Japanese phrases”

Kazu was amazing at customising our tour . My teenage daughter could speak some Japanese so he was able to adapt the tour for her level. We really enjoyed it and would highly recommend him.

Thank you so much for your kind review! I’m glad that you both enjoyed the tour. I hope the Japanese phrase sheets will be useful during the rest of your trip, and that you enjoy trying some of the cheesecake places I recommended as well. Thank you again for taking the time to share your experience!

“Custom Tour for Kobe Family History Visit”

We contacted Kaori months before our planned visit, in which two sisters born in Kobe during WWII were returning for the first time in 80 years. She understood the importance to our family of getting this right. So she contacted the Director of the museum that currently occupies our former family home in preparation for our arrival, researched the location of the former German hospital where they were born and of the buying office that our father had owned downtown, and reserved the van for 7 passengers that would ferry us from Osaka and around Kobe. During our actual visit she served as interpreter, including with a local journalist who wanted to report on the event, assisted us in attempting to find documentation at the municipal office, and steered us to a Kobe steak house for an unforgettable lunch. Following our time in Kobe she added interesting stops in Osaka, including helping me buy gifts at the Pokeman Center. I cannot say enough about Kaori’s ability to meet all our requirements and expectations. She truly knows her stuff, has an excellent command English and ensured we had a memorable once in a lifetime experience.

Natsuko was excellent. She was accommodating and very patient practicing Japanese with my daughter. We really enjoyed the experience and would highly remember her especially if you have children or teenagers.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m very happy that you chose my tour at the beginning of your daughter’s stay in Japan to help with her Japanese learning. It was so much fun spending time with you both, and I really enjoyed eating delicious Kobe beef together! I hope I can visit Australia someday and see you again.
