“Half Day tour of Nagoya”
Excellent tour guide with excellent english. She even wore a Kimono for our tour and were able to meet some of her former friends that worked at the Atsuta Jingu Shrine. Her knowledge of the area we toured was full of facts and able to share the local culture with us as well. We would highly recommend her as a tour guide and if ever we return, we would sought her services again.

“spending a day with Saya in Nishio City and Arimatsu”
Saya is a lovely person to spend a day with as a private tour guide for the Nagoya Area . She made extra efforts to research where we wanted to go and helped us enjoy a visit to out of the way Nishio City and Arimatsu. We tried the local matcha and did a fun cotton fabric dyeing session thst helped us appreciate this technique and its place in the industry. This is a great alternative to more well known tourist sites - we also had a wonderful meal to end the day in Nagoya proper. Would highly endorse using her as a guide as she is very organized and communicative about planning a visit and listening to what you think is important. Her English is excellent!
