“Verd nice and very informative ”
Nishi is a very nice, very friendly and very communicative guide and she answered every question we asked her. She was very flexible with time and plans and tried to include every wish we had. We really enjoyed our tour with her and will recommend her warmly! Even though we had a tight time schedule, we never felt rushed. She even gave us rice cookies and postcards as presents at the end. Stay as you are, Nishi! :)

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!

Thank you so much for such a pleasant comliment. The two tour day went well totally because you had asked me your requests in details and you've been flexible during the tours. I was very glad you enjoyed every moment at the sake brewery, the lunch restaurant, the art museum and the photo spots. Also it was great to hear you had a good time after my guiding. Your tour will an forgettable memory for me, too. Thank you, again.
