Sugooooi ne!

I booked a couple of tours with Naoki and this is one of them. We visited many places but what added value was Naoki's knowledge about them and his warm and generous hospitality. It also helped that he spoke perfect English, which left nothing to doubt and made our interactions a breeze.

Jonas T.

Dear Jonathan, Thank you so much for spending your precious time posting a great review! I really enjoyed taking you around in the 3 cities and I felt as if we were good friends for a long time trying traditional food, local coffee together and talking about history, culture and people. I remember you everytime I see the red beans pancake shop haha good memories! Thank you again Jonathan for your kind reviw. I hope to see you again in the future!! Best Regards Naoki
