“Very knowledgeable and very accommodating!”
We had such a wonderful day with Toshi! We had requested to start a bit earlier than her listed time when booking, which she agreed to. My daughter and I only had 1 day in Kyoto so I wanted to see and learn as much as possible without trying to navigate ourselves. The city is beautiful, and even on a rainy, cold day we saw so many places thanks to Toshi! She was understanding and patient when my 8 year old needed some more breaks than expected. She recommended a delicious lunch spot, lead us through some great side streets and old markets en route to subways and between destinations. There is so much symbolism in all shrines, temples, and castle we visited I was grateful to have her explain the many things I definitely would have overlooked! Overall I was so pleased with the tour and my decision to leave Kyoto planning to an expert!

“Full day custom tour of Kyoto ”
I would recommend Toshiyo to guide you through Kyoto to the sites you wish to see. Her use of English and her knowledge of history, religion, and culture gave depth and meaning to our day. Also being able to follow and learn which bus ,train or taxi to navigate the city with for our family of 5 helped relieve stress.
