Reviews

Hiro is my hero!

Hiro was amazing ! And extremely confident in how to get to places ! He never complained about going anywhere or did he try to force us to go anywhere we didn’t want to go. He made sure to wait for us in some places. He made sure to take shortcuts when necessary!

Nihad S.

Dear Nihad S I say thank you for your great reviews on Sep 9 tour in Kyoto. Even though it was hot and much humidity, both of you were able to visit many target destinations, such as Fushimi-Inari Shrine, a cafe in Gion area, walking through a long shopping mall Nishiki Market, then headed for Arashiyama ,where you had a nice Japanese Kaiseki dinner and lastly take a walk in bamboo forest ! I am very glad to hear that you had a pleasant tour in Kyoto. Best regards Sep 24 Hiroshi Y.

Excellent, comprehensive tour of Kyoto!

Our family of 4 (2 adults, 2 teens) only had one day to see Kyoto, and we're glad we found Hiroshi to help us navigate this beautiful city. Hiroshi picked 3 top sites to show us. He provided historical and cultural background of the places, which we all found very informative. We travelled very efficiently by public transit, and covered a lot of ground in the 8 hrs we spent together. He was willing to show us more, but by the end we were all exhausted and ready to call it a day. He helped us find a taxi to take us back to the train station, so we could travel back to Osaka that night. THANK YOU very much Hiroshi for your great talent in sharing your great city with us, in such an interactive way. We all enjoyed meeting you, and only wish we had more time together.

Nita S.

Dear Nita S. I am grateful to you for your great reviews on Aug 10 one day tour in Kyoto. I also say thank you for your cooperation during the tour. It was such a terrible hot and much humid day ! But all of you followed me without complaints during 8 hours tour. Anyway, I am glad to hear that all of you enjoyed touring in Kyoto. Best regards Sep 25 Hiroshi Y.

Great guide in Kyoto

The whole experience with Hiroshi was great. We contacted a bit last minute and he was very receptive and responsive. He knows the city well and has really nice information for each of the sites. Would recommend!

Rosa E.

Dear Rosa E Thank you for your great reviews on Aug 1 one day tour in Kyoto. After one day tour in Kyoto, both of you must be deadly tired due to terribly hot and much humidity ! But you seemed to have been enjoyed touring 4 must-see sites. I was glad to see that both of you had a pleasant trip during that day, thank you. Best regards Aug 21 Hiroshi Y.
