“Best tour & Best guide!”
Best ever! Yaron is a wounderful guide, very knowledgeable, he shared with us lots of interstening anecdotes and stories about the places we have visted, about Japan, and every day life in Japan. We visited many special places we would not have experience to see without him. Highly recommended!

“Cruise stop in Kagoshima with family”
We had a wonderful day with Yaron in Kagoshima. We were a family group with granparents and children. He was very flexible to adapt to our needs during the day and able to organize a tour suitable and customized for our group. He was able to organize for us not only the guided tour but also he booked for our group a van. He was both very friendly and professional. We enjoyed a lot the day and we were able to discover very nice spots of Kagoshima, especially in the area of Sakurajima.
