“️️️️️ An Exceptional Kyoto Tour with Jasmine — Highly Recommended!”

My family (including our daughters, 10 and 16) spent a full day touring Kyoto with Jasmine on December 1, 2025, and it was one of the highlights of our trip. She asked about our interests—historic shrines, temples, and the Gion area—and created a custom route that covered everything we wanted to see. Before the tour, she even advised us on where to stay, what to wear, and what to bring, which was incredibly helpful. Jasmine met us at an easy-to-find spot and immediately made us feel welcome. Her English was excellent, and she was patient, friendly, and very knowledgeable. She adjusted the walking pace to suit our family and filled the day with interesting stories about each site. She also shared insights into local traditions, daily life, and school customs, answering all our kids’ questions as we saw many local students touring the same areas. Her cultural explanations and tips were things you would never find in a standard guidebook. My wife has a heart condition, and some uphill paths were difficult for her. Jasmine quickly adapted the route on the spot, reducing stairs and steep climbs while still ensuring we visited the key sights. Her flexibility made a big difference. Near the end of the tour, my wife suddenly felt very unwell, and we had to cut the day short to reach the ER (thankfully she later recovered). Jasmine was incredibly supportive—she helped us catch a taxi, directed us to a major hospital with English-speaking staff, and checked in with us afterward for several days to see how my wife was doing. Her kindness and genuine care went far beyond what we expected. Overall, Jasmine greatly enhanced our time in Kyoto. Her planning, knowledge, and warm personality made the experience wonderful from start to finish. We highly recommend booking her as your local guide—you will not be disappointed.

Ana was very knowledgeable guide. Had plenty of interesting facts to add into the morning. Payed attention to the needs of my wife and myself. I would highly recommend her. She even went out of her way to retrieve my suica card I lost the day before. Thank you, exceptional work Ana!

Dear James, thank you both for the warm and kind company on a cold, brisk morning. I enjoyed our short time together; the questions were very insightful, and your openness to try new things during your visit was praiseworthy. I wish you a wonderful stay in Japan, full of great memories to bring back home. Thank you!!
