“Great time around Kyoto ”

We had a wonderful day along with Fumi san. She was very nice and liberated our mind of when and where and how to get there. Allowing us to enjoy the sites without stress. She gave us a lot of information about the history with made the whole experience much more enjoyable.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. The time I spent with you was an unforgettable and valuable experience. I was impressed by your willingness to learn even more about Japanese history, despite your already extensive knowledge. I would love to see you again.

“Outstanding Experience in Kyoto – Highly Recommend Takashima!”

We had an absolutely wonderful day exploring Kyoto with Takashima, and I cannot recommend him highly enough! From the very start, he was the definition of professionalism—arriving perfectly on time in our hotel lobby with a warm and polite greeting. His communication skills are excellent; his English is incredibly clear and very easy to understand, which made our conversations and learning about the sites effortless. He possesses deep knowledge of Kyoto's history and culture, explaining everything thoroughly and bringing each location to life. What stood out to us the most was his amazing flexibility. We made several changes to our itinerary throughout the day, and Takashima accommodated every single one of them with grace and ease. Even though we packed a great deal into a single day, his pacing was masterful—he never made us feel rushed, allowing us to truly enjoy each moment. If you are looking for a professional, knowledgeable, and highly adaptable guide in Kyoto, look no further and book Takashima immediately!

“This is the Guide You Want”

We both enjoyed our time with Yoshie who answered all of our odd questions in near perfect english. I wanted to know about the social fabric of modern Japan - from its attitudes towards alcohol, women’s rights, the LGBTQ communities and its government, Yoshie answered all but only after a few seconds of thought. In addition, he knew the history, where to eat, how to navigate the train system at a pace that enabled us to see all the top sites. Clearly proud of his country (and with good reason) and is eager to share it. 20,000 steps was a highlight. Thank you
