Niigata Experience with Kei

Kei was an excellent guide went out of his way to pickup us up with his personal car at Tsubame Sanjo station and escorted my wife and I at the Craft Fair. If anyone needs a great guide in the Niigata area , I would highly recommend him.

Beautiful, Serene, and Delicious

We had a fantastic day trip to Shiga from Kyoto with Nori. He tailored the tour perfectly to fit the time we had, and it was such a treat to escape the hustle and bustle of Kyoto. Every stop was peaceful, beautiful, and felt like a hidden gem. Traveling by private car allowed us to fully immerse ourselves in the surroundings. Nori speaks fluent English, which made communication easy. He took us to some incredible off-the-beaten-path spots that we never would have found on our own. For our sixteen-year-old, the highlight of the day was enjoying Omi beef at a charming little restaurant with a private Japanese garden. The servers wore traditional kimonos, and we had the entire place to ourselves. The chef prepared the meal right in front of us—it was an unforgettable experience. We've had Wagyu before, but Omi beef was even better! Shiga is absolutely worth the trip, especially if you're staying in Kyoto. Of all the private day tours we did in Japan, this one was truly one of our favorites. Thank you, Nori!

I am so happy to hear that you really enjoyed the tour in Shiga. As you said, there are quite a lot of historical places in the area which are often older than Kyoto yet many people even Japanese don’t know their existence. Oumi and Kobe beefs are the top quality beefs in Japan. Luckily when we went to the restaurant, the special section was offered just to us. Hope you can come back to enjoy the amazing teppanyaki beef!! Take care!

Peace Park and Saijo

What an amazing day. The peace park and museum were one of the most moving experiences. Saijo was so much fun visiting the different sake breweries. This was probably one of the must memorable days of my Japan trip. Thank you Miyu San!

What a meaningful day it was! I'm truly glad that you felt the importance of learning about the reality of the atomic bombing. Watching you enjoy Hiroshima’s sake made me happy and excited, too. Thank you for your love for Japan. I really hope our paths cross again someday.
