Expert local knowledge and thoughtful planning

Mr Koki did an outstanding job planning out one-day tour at Kyoto with key sights per my request, not only the sequence of location, but also the time spent at each site and the efficient logistics traveling from one site to another. We were very impressed with his in-depth knowledge and story-telling about the historical and cultural background of those famous sites at Kyoto as well as the local traditions. He also introduced us to the delicious local food and drinks. It was definitely the highlight of our Japan trip.

Yunshu L.

Hi Yunshu Thank you very much for your very excellent feedback and evaluation. It was a day trip from Tokyo, so the itinerary was a bit hectic, I was able to show you the points you wanted to see without any problems. I was very surprised at you and Cary deep knowledge of history. I hope you will continue to deepen you and his love of history. I'm look forward to seeing you again in Kyoto or somewhere else in Japan in the near future. Next time. Please stay in Kyoto for a few days and enjoy in all seasons. Thank you very much. Koki

Koki is the best guide in Kyoto!

We were 2 families with 4 teenagers wanting to experience Kyoto with a local. Koki was amazing. He took us to multiple temples and shrines along with the market and downtown. He was informative, patient and kind! We loved this tour.
