“Bosque de Bamb?, Nara y Osaka”
Todo perfecto con Agustín. Se adapta a tus necesidades y tenerlo como guía ha sido una experiencia muy positiva. Conoce a la perfección la zona y las costumbres como un local. Gracias a él visitamos rincones que como turistas no hubiéramos conocer.

“Excellent day in Kyoto”
Augustin was an excellent guide for our extensive tour of Kyoto. He was accommodating, knowledgeable and had a great sense of humor. He even did the tour in Spanish and English since our group was bilingual. We had a really great day.
