We had 3 hrs Guided tour at the castle and Kokkoen garden. Nishi gave us a lot of interesting information and details about the castle, details we had not seen otherwise. She showed us the best picture spots and informed in an enthusiastic way. Thank you Nishi for a great guided tour in the rain :)

I appreciate such a nice comment. Although it wasn't a good weather, I'm so glad you enjoyed full-bloomed sakura-cherry blossoms and had interest in the castle, Japanese culture and history. Shift to early start was nice to avoid long queues. It was a wonderful time for me. I look forward to your next visit. Thank you again!

“Himeji Castle and Garden Tour”
We had a wonderful tour of Himeji Castle and Garden on a beautiful clear day. From the beginning, Nishi had great communications through messages and was she waiting there for us before our scheduled meeting time. She is an excellent guide where she shared very specific information about the castle and gardens. She was able to recommend all the best viewing points to take photos that one would normally miss without her guidance. She is a kind, humble and informative person and I highly recommend her to anyone interested in her tour.

Himeji : Hyogo Golden Route (one of five tours)
Hyogo prefecture is about 150km long in north-south direction. There are many sight seeing spots, not only Kobe, Himeji but also Izush-Toyooka, Tanba-Sasayama Awaji island. So Hyogo government decleared "Hyogo Golden Route" as recommended tours. I would like to guide those areas where tourists do not know well. Each area is one day tour. You can have a different experience from Kyoto or Osaka.
