“Knowledgeable and friendly guide for Nikko day trip ”
Yoshi organized a day trip to Nikko for my multigenerational family group, including telling us which train to book, meeting us at the train station in Tokyo, and arranging for a driver in Nikko. He is very friendly and speaks English very well. He was very knowledgeable about the sites, and we enjoyed spending the day with Yoshi and learning more about Japanese life from his perspective.
