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.

“Great time visiting Kyoto and Nara with Eric-san”

I had a great time with Eric-san who showed me around town in Kyoto and Nara. He is a wise and excellent tour guide, who knows a great deal about the history and culture in the area. I am certain any visitors to the beautiful cities of Kyoto and Nara will enjoy their experience with Eric-san. He will sometimes tell you jokes and hilarious stories involving everyday life in the city. Regards David
