“Hiroko is great!”
I’m so glad I found Hiroko through GoWithGuide! I arranged a tour for my friends, visiting Kyoto for the first time. I knew a local guide would add so much value , enable them to really relax and enjoy the experience . Hiroko made that happen! She turned my tour outline into a professional itinerary, met the guests on time on the day, gave a fantastic tour including Nishiki market and Kiyomizudera and delivered my friends, safe and very happy,, to Pontocho. Thanks so much Hiroko! You’re great!

“Full day tour of Western Kyoto”
We've had many guides on our extensive travels throughout the world and Nori is one of the very best we've ever toured with. His wide ranging knowledge, incredible flexibility, careful planning, amazing attention to detail......I could go on and on..... We thoroughly enjoyed our day with him (in spite of the 20,000+ steps we walked!) and particularly appreciated his insights on historical and contemporary Kyoto/Japanese culture. We recommend him highly! Thanks so much, Nori, for making our visit to Kyoto so very memorable!

(9 reviews)Thank you very much for your kind words. Hope your legs are ok now after walking so much. You have been to Japan so many times, so I was concerned if I met your expectations… Hope we can explore more together in other areas the next time you come. Will wait for you!
“7 days guide private Tour of two Germans Tokyo und Kyoto areas”
We decided to book a private tour guide for the metropolitan areas of Tokyo and Kyoto for the first few days of our vacation in Japan. We wanted to get to know the people, the culture and nature. This worked very well with Hiro; he accompanied us for seven days. The communication in English was very good. Hiro was able to perfectly fulfill all of our wishes regarding tourist attractions and background information; we learned a lot about history and Buddhism. This first contact made us curious about further visits to Japan. We can highly recommend Hiro.

I hope you liked Mt. Fuji, Tokyo, Kyoto, the Gion Corner show, Hikone Castle, Teppanyaki and others. I had a meaningful time with you. Please come back to Japan sometime soon. There are a lot of places with culture and natural beauty in Japan that I want to show you. Have a safe and comfortable trip back home.
