“Wanted more of a Guide, Got a local who speaks English”
I was looking for more a guide led experience, where she would tell us about the sights we were visiting and other interesting things about Japanese culture. I did get a few stories but I would have liked more. It felt more like I had a local who speaks English for companionship.

“Very Enjoyable Kyoto Tour with Fumi”
We had an excellent experience with Fumi as our tour guide in Kyoto. She was able to customise our tour based on our requests. During the tour, she was very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the city, making the tour both educational and engaging. Fumi was also friendly, patient, and attentive to our family's interests, ensuring everyone enjoyed the experience. Her local insights and personalized tips made our visit even more special. We highly recommend Fumi to anyone looking for a wonderful and authentic Kyoto tour!
