“A great day with Serge”

Serge designed a day trip for us to explore some "family roots" and visit the area that our family was previously from. He incorporated everything we wanted into our day, and was very engaging and personable. He worked to make the day interesting for our 11 and 13 year old boys as well. We would highly recommend Serge to anyone needing a guide in the Nagoya area.

Serge R.

Thank you Lisa, it was an honor to guide you guys around. The love and respect you have for eachother in your family was inspiring. Hope to see you all again in the future. With love Serge
