developed in Japan as well. I can offer you not only historic places like Nijo castle, Kinkakuji temple ,Kiyomizu temple etc., but also off the beaten track spots Nijo jinya house or nicknamed

Reviews

An Energetic, Knowledgeable Guide

We travelled to Kyoto on the Shinkasen from Tokyo. We arrived mid-day but Hiro tailored a half-day tour for us so that we could see as much as possible in Kyoto. We spent two more complete days touring. Hiro would meet us at our hotel and then we were off. Be prepared to keep us with this energetic, knowledgeable guide because you don't want to miss out on all the information he has to share about Kyoto. Kyoto is very crowded with tourists, so you don't want to waste time trying to determine how best to get to the sites to tour. Hiro was very adept at getting us to the sites without delay. He made the tours fun with his wit and quizzes. You can take the middle school teacher out of the classroom, but you can't take away his interest in teaching. Hiro also recommended a restaurant for dinner our first night that was fantastic. Thank you, Hiro, for an enjoyable time touring Kyoto.

Great introduction to Kyoto

As an experienced guide and an ex-middle school teacher, Hiroshi shared lots about the history of Kyoto, Japan in general, as well as the four excellent locations we visited. Just what we hoped for. The first three world heritage sites were outstanding examples and key moments in Japan’s history, as well as very beautiful. I shan’t spoil what’s extraordinary about the fourth site, but I’m so pleased we went there. Remarkable. Thank you so much Hiroshi.

Dear Lawrence I am very grateful to you for your great reviews on Jun/5 one day tour in Kyoto. Thanks to hard walking and your cooperation, You were able to visit 4 must-see sites within a day ! You must be amazed to watch such a beautiful Golden Pavilion temple, and next at Ryoanji temple, where you must be feel a sense of calmness and simplicity and Nijyojyo castle ,where you figured out what it was like the life of the Shoguns and lastly visit at Sanjyu-sangendo temple, where you may feel like you were walking in the forest of buddha. Best regards Jun/12 Hiroshi Y.
