“A super entertaining day”
Unfortunately, we could only book Akira for one day. That day was fantastic; Akira was such a nice and eloquent guide with surprisingly good background knowledge. The day passed like a breeze. Thank you very much, Akira!

“An ambitious tour with a considerate guide”
Our group of 3, one with some mobility issues had a rather long but informative day with Tatsuya. Picked up at Osaka port and driven to Kyoto and back. TAtsuya was as helpful as he could be to minimise walking and indeed managed to ensure access at Osaka castle to lifts and priority access To jump the queues. This was most welcome. He was also very flexible allowing us to tailor the tour to our interests.
