“The Perfect Day”
Yasu was very attentive to the needs of my family and put together the perfect tour. The pace was steady and we saw a lot of what Kyoto had to offer even taking in some locale fare.

“Private Tour of Kyoto”
Yasu, was very responsive prior to the trip and arranged to meet us at Kyoto Station and even helped us on the way back navigate the bullet train tickets! He had arranged for a private taxi as the weather very hot and humid and and it allowed us to move quickly between destinations. As we were travelling from Tokyo and just doing the tour in Kyoto for a day, thus meant we could maximise our time and see as much as possible. Yasu's knowledge was exceptional and at every stop he gave us very insightful descriptions. In addition to the historical sights he showed us some of the cultural side of life in Japan, visiting parts of the old town, midtown where we saw festival floats that were highly decorated, and a famous market. Yasu was a charming, kind and had a fantastic knowledge base and wouldn't hesitate in recommending him to anyone. Kind regards, Adrian

“Excellent experience”
I booked Yasu san for a day trip to Nara for my parents (I've been to Nara before). My parents were delighted. He was always very punctual and kind. He had setup a plan for the day, but also during the day, he came up with suggestions that could be of more interest to my parents and adjusted accordingly. The day went smooth and delightful.
