“Kyoto with Koki”
Kyoto with Koki was a rewarding experience. He explained what we were going to see and how we were going to get there.Buses ,train and subway.He took us to many temples ,shrines and japanese gardens and gave us a brief knowledge of what we we had come to see with little extras along the way.we had lunch a traditional japanese restaurant and he explained what we were eating which made the experience more enjoyable. If you book Koki as your guide you will not be disappointed,he can tailor it to your needs. We wish to thank him again for a memorable day in kyoto we will never forget.
