“Privte tour in Kyoto with Koki”
It was an excellent day in Kyoto. Koki met us in the hotel lobby as it was agreed. He walked us thru all the places that we discussed in in advance. Koki knows a lot about history and the Japanese culture and he gladly shares his knowledge. He told us a lot about the Kyoto history and showed different locations. He took really good care of us, so both the adults and the children enjoyed the tour very much. I would definitely recommend Koki to anyone who wishes to have a fun and nice tour in Kyoto. Koki, thanks a lot for your care and the little things that you did, that made that day in Kyoto that we will always remember. Kind regards, Vitaly

“Super friendly & helpful Koki”
We initially booked Koki for a half day tour of Kyoto following our arrival in Japan the previous day. He was so engaging, personable, informative & helpful that we booked him for the whole of the next day which we had left free. I would wholly recommend Koki to you & offer my thanks to him once again in this review.
