“All Day With Kochi in Kobe and Osaka ”

We had an absolutely fantastic time with Kochi. We had a 9 hours booked with him and it went by in the blink of an eye. He is knowledgeable, funny, energetic, and just an all-around great guy. We had such a wonderful time learning about the history and culture of Osaka and Kobe and even shared an incredible lunch at a local restaurant. I highly recommend Kochi and this tour. It was like seeing Japan with a dear friend.

“Excellent tour for family with kids - 10/10 recommend! ”

We did an 8 hour tour with Koichi and had a fabulous time. He was incredibly patient with our two children 7 and 10), and he did a great job balancing explaining the history to us, while also finding engaging ways to teach our children about Japanese history and tradition as well. We saw more than I had hoped for, learned a lot, and had fun along the way. He took us to a great local spot for lunch and showed us local treats. We booked the tour for our first full day in Kyoto and it also helped us get our bearings for the city. Another unexpected bonus was all the family photos we got - Koichi was great about recommending where we would want great shots! My only regret was not booking him for more than 1 day, as we would have loved to see other parts of Kyoto or Japan with him! We will absolutely be reaching out to book another tour with him, when we return to Japan next!!

Hi! Thank you so much for the wonderful review and your heartwarming message. Although our time together was brief, I look back fondly on the moments I spent with you and your family. Spending time with your lovely child was a truly joyful experience for me. Please do come back to Japan—and to Kyoto—if you ever have the chance. By the time I see your child again, I’m sure they’ll have grown quite a bit.

“Koichi was a wonderful and thoughtful guide! ”

We truly enjoyed Koichi guiding us thru Kyoto. He was a wealth of information. If you want to discover Kyoto and learn all about it’s history and the meaning behind everything, you need to have Koichi guide you. His hidden talent is photography!! He made wonderful pictures of us to remember this memorable day! Thank you so much Koichi for a wonderful experience. We will come and visit again.
