“Great Day in Kyoto!”
This was our second day with Miyu and we were able to see so much! Not only did we see what was on our itinerary, but she also fit in all the sites on our wish list, too! Miya is very adaptable and accommodating. Thank you for showing us Kyoto!

“Memorable Day in Osaka”
Miyu was the perfect guide for us. Our day with her was enjoyable and seamless. Miyu is knowledgeable and funny. Not only did she show us the highlights of Osaka, she also brought us to places we would never find on our own. She is very adaptable, we would mention things we wanted to do and she would make it happen.
Miyu S.

“MIYU is Amazing! Fabulous tour guide! Perfect day in Kyoto ”
If you want to truly experience Kyoto in one day, MIYU is the guide you want! She brought the city to life by explaining the history, culture, and traditions in a way that made everything we saw much more meaningful. One of the biggest advantages was not having to figure out the trains or subway system. MIYU handled all of the navigation so we could simply enjoy the day and see more of Kyoto without wasting time. She has a wonderful personality, was incredibly accommodating, and made the entire experience feel relaxed and fun. I have visited Kyoto before on my own, but this tour was far better with a knowledgeable guide. If you only have one day in Kyoto, booking MIYU is absolutely worth it and will make your visit unforgettable. Thank you MIYU
Miyu S.
Hi Kathryn, thank you for joining the tour and for the kind review! I had a great time with you, too! I'm so happy I could help you see a different side of Kyoto this time. If you come to Japan again, please feel free to reach out. Miyu
