“Guide for Japan”
We had a wonderful experience with Yasu, was on time and had a lovely kind ,gentle manner. Adapted our tour to accommodate our needs , with our disabled daughter in a wheelchair. He shared his knowledge with us and took us to the most beautiful places we would not have found without him. An excellent guide who we would highly recommend.

“Amazing tours of Kyoto!”
Where do I begin?! Ana is an incredible guide! We spent 1.5 wonderful, inspiring, information-filled days with her in Kyoto and I wish we could have had her with us the rest of our trip. She seems to know everything about everything (truly, there wasn't a single question we asked that she couldn't answer). She's wonderful with kids — she was so kind and patient with our young children, who absolutely adored her (my 7 year old daughter was holding her hand by the end of our first day together). She also advised us well about visiting sites that weren't part of our tour and some of our best family photos of our trip were taken by her. We feel lucky to have met her and we're so grateful to have had her guidance. We highly, highly recommend Ana!

(8 reviews)Dear Marta, thank you for the kind review. It was such a treat for me to spend a day and a half with your family! The children were amazing and under your wonderful parental guidance, they were patient and open to trying things during the tour. It was a bittersweet moment to say my goodbyes to everyone and I am so grateful for choosing me to show you Kyoto. I wish you all much health and joyous days ahead️.

(10 reviews)Hello Wolfgang!! Thank you for your wonderful review. It was a memorable day touring Kyoto with you guys, just when the cherry blossoms were in full bloom! I will never forget the seafood bowl we had at Nishiki Market. We had fun visiting temples, shrines, street food, and every place while talking about each other's countries. It was a fulfilling and wonderful time! Please let me know when you come to Japan again! Thank you!
