“Wonderful tour ”
We had a wonderful tour with Toshiyo-san. She was very flexible and really worked with our schedule for the day. She also did a quick stop at a shrine that I had not heard of and it was so nice and peaceful. Having a custom tour was great and we were able to get around much quicker to some of the further out places than if we used the bus. Super knowledgeable of the area and customs. Loved her so much! Totally recommend :D

Dear Alison and Akiko chan Thank you very much for having me as your guide and writing me the kind review. I am very glad you liked the temples we visited. It was very pleasant to watch the pretty girl put small coins on the Buddhas and play with local girls at the park. Thank you! Toshiyo

Gion is the area of entertainment, where there are many bars and taverns. Some important business and political talks have been conducted.

Yuba is vegan, dairy-free ,gluten free,preserve-free, additive-free and protein rich. You can see the yuba making process.

Katsura Imperial Villa and Fushimi Inari
Katsura Imperial Villa is too beautiful to express! In the early Edo period, Prince Toshihito, who excelled in both literature and the martial art from childhood, built the Villa. That is both tasteful and simple. We need to apply for the Imperial Household Agency to get in. I will apply for you by postcard. It takes an hour to see the villa by the special guide of the villa. The fee is free.
