(9 reviews)I appreciate your thoughtful review. You always listened to me with interests during the tour. Luckily, the weather was perfect, you also saw beautiful chrysanthemums, too. I am delighted if you are interested in castles, history, culture and architecture more than before. I also learned a lot from you and had a enjoyable time. Thank you again. Please visit Japan in spring next time.
“5 Stars - Exceptional Experience with Nishi in Himeji!”
We had an absolutely unforgettable 2-day guided tour with Ms. Nishi N in Himeji. Our group of six, including my 85-year-old mother, was treated to a thoughtfully planned itinerary that covered Himeji Castle, its beautiful gardens, a sake brewery tasting, and some fantastic local lunch spots. Nishi’s incredible knowledge of the history and culture of Himeji brought every location to life, making the entire experience both educational and engaging. She was exceptionally kind and attentive, especially to my mother, ensuring that everything was stress-free and enjoyable for everyone. Nishi knew all the best photo spots, capturing memories we will cherish forever. Her expertise, coupled with her warm personality, made our time with her truly special. Beyond Himeji, she generously shared great recommendations for our next stop in Kyoto, even though we didn’t have a guide there. Thanks to her advice, we made the most of our visit. We can’t wait to return and will definitely be requesting Nishi’s services again when we explore more of the Hyogo, Kobe, and Himeji areas. Highly recommend!

Your tour will an forgettable memory for me, too. Thank you, again.

(9 reviews)I appreciate your warm review. Thanks to your information, detailed requests, and flexibility, the tour went well, especially your mother could reach the castle top floor!! It was a good idea to avoid a tight schedule. Even though it was busy and crowded in Himeji on those days, the tours processed just as planned. You are wonderful travellers. You stories and questions were very interesting and informative, too. I really look forward to your visit of Japan; Himeji and the neighboting areas!
