“ Takachiho Gorge and Mt. Aso ”
Friendly and responsible drivers. Great service.

We’re so grateful that you took the time to leave us a 5-star review. Hope we can be of assistance to you when you visit Japan again in the future. Thanks again, and have a wonderful day.

“ Everything was great, nice taxi and company! ”
Good service, the driver was very professional. Having to pay for the toll taxes at the end was awkward, I would have preferred to pay for them beforehand.
Tr taxi R.
Thanks for your 5-star review! We sincerely appreciate your feedback. Because there are many uncertainties in a sightseeing tour. Such as weather and traffic conditions, temporary additions or cancellations of sightseeing spots, temporary decisions on restaurants to visit, and so on. All of these can affect the driving route, so it is difficult to accurately decide in advance the toll road fees and parking fees for sightseeing trips. Paying on the day according to the actual situation may not be convenient for passengers, but it is the most cost-effective way. Thanks again, and we hope to serve you again soon.

“ Smooth and Comfortable! ”
Mr. Inoue was on time and very accommodating. He recommended us with sights that are not filled with people, but you can still enjoy the autumn leaves and Mt. Fuji's fantastic view. He also recommended where to get our lunch which was a ramen place, and it was amazingly good! A good experience overall!
Tr taxi R.
Thank you for choosing our service and leaving a 5-star review. Mt. Fuji has its own unique beauty in autumn, and we look forward to welcoming you back in other seasons as well. We’re here to serve you anytime.

“ Fantastic Tour ”
Had the best driver in Koni-san. Even though he did not speak English, he pretty much understood us and we communicated through google translate. It was no problem. He was supposed to only be a driver but walked us to the entrance of each site and then ended up walking with us and guiding us through the massive crowds. He was so much fun. I definitely will request him again when I visit Kyoto on my next trip. Great driver and such a fun person. Thank you Koni-san
Tr taxi R.
Thanks for your review！We'll make sure Koni-san receives your feedback and we're sure it will make his day.Thank you again！
