“Outstanding tour with Hiroshi”
My daughter and I spent six hours with Hiroshi in Kyoto in early September and he was a delight. His lovely personality, sense of humor and kindness meant time spent with him was very enjoyable as well as informative. We began the day at Ryoan-Ji Temple then on to Kinkaku-ji Golden Temple. Seeing the Golden Temple with a guide was a much richer experience than it would have been had we gone alone. Then we walked through Nishiki Market and had some lunch. We finished with Kennen-ji Temple which was very beautiful. I highly recommend a tour with Hiroshi. His English, by the way, was very good and easily understandable.

“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!

I am very glad to hear that you had a pleasant tour in Kyoto. Best regards Sep 24 Hiroshi Y.
