“This was the highlight of our three week trip through Asia ”
The specific guide we had made all the difference. We had two days of touring in Kyoto, the second day being our favorite. Our guide was an English teacher and translator. We know quite a bit about Japan, so we needed someone with a deep cultural understanding and a keen sense of history.

“Fun tour of Arashiyama with Rin”
We had an awesome partial day tour of Arashiyama with our tour guide Rin! She was knowledgeable, kind and super accommodating to the things we wanted to do. Arashiyama is beautiful and a must visit if you’re in Kyoto and we highly recommend Mary’s team for your tour. Thank you Mary and Rin!!
