Kochi Tour Reviews
Gary G.
“The BEST Tour Guide”
We could not have had a better experience with Hiroshi. What a great way to see Kochi. Not only was he knowledgeable, but his English was perfect and so easy to understand. He was pleasant and exceeded expectations by taking photos along the tour and sent them to us after our time with him (and he's a great photographer on top of all else!). We had some fussy eaters in our small group of 3, yet he found a way to accommodate all of our needs at a local, favorite place of his--and it was perfect. I HIGHLY recommend him if you are going to be visiting Kochi.

“Exceptional! ”
A tour guide can make or break an experience. Hiroshi made ours truly enjoyable and special. He’s passionate about what he does and incredibly knowledgeable. We thoroughly recommend him.

Thank you very much for the wonderful review and for sharing the photos! It was a true pleasure to host such a lovely family. I especially enjoyed our "study session" trying to memorize the famous words of Taisuke Itagaki together! It was a fun highlight of the day for me! I hope you have a fantastic rest of your journey in Japan. Hope to see you again in Kochi! Best regards, Hiroshi
