About Tour Guide Eric T.

Hallow ! This is Eric.

I was born in Kyoto, and I have been living in Kyoto.

I am sure that Kyoto is one of the best city for sightseeing and living.

I wish if I can introduce some nice places for you by walking around city streets.

Also, in suburbs, there are a lot of nice sightseeing places such as Bamboo forest, Monkey park, Fushimi shrine, Zen practice temples and so on.

Let's enjoy Kyoto town and Kyoto food.with me.

“The Best Way to See Kyoto!”

We had a wonderful experience with Eric in Kyoto. He was very friendly, kind, and helpful throughout the whole tour. Without him, we definitely wouldn’t have been able to see so many of Kyoto’s beautiful sights in such a short time. He made everything easy and enjoyable, and we really appreciated his knowledge and guidance. Highly recommended!
