“Awesome day in Kyoto!”

Our family did a one day tour of Kyoto with Koki - and it turned out to be one of the highlights of our entire Japan vacation! Koki was super personable and obviously very familiar with the region. In addition to taking us to the more popular (and crowded) sites in Kyoto - he also steered us to some lesser known places - which we truly appreciated as a way to avoid the crowds of people. We highly recommend Koki if you're considering a guide in Kyoto!

Koki N.

Mr. Luke, Thank you very much for joining my tour this time. I also appreciate your wonderful feedback. We were blessed with good weather on the tour day, the view from Shogunzuka was magnificent, and we were able to complete the tour safely. I sincerely look forward to seeing you again in the near future. Koki

“Amazing trip to Kyoto thanks to Koki”

Koki was fantastic. Super accommodating, knowledgeable, flexible and fun. He had wonderful restaurant recommendations, was patient when I wanted to shop and we got to see everything we wanted to see. We could not recommend him enough 10/10. The driver was extra grea,t because we didnt have to rely on public transportation. That was extra but so worth it.

Hi Lynn, I am honored to receive your very kind feedback. We were able to tour around Kyoto efficiently by taxi in a 3 days. On the first day, Kiyomizu-dera temple was a little busy because there were so many people, but on the second day, Ryoanji temple, Golden Pavillion(Kinkakuji), Nijo-jo castle and Nishiki market on the third day, we were able to enjoy them slowly. We were also able to enjoy karaoke in the short time we had in Kyoto. Kyoto is a wonderful city where you can enjoy spring, summer, fall, and winter. Please come again. Next time, if you would like to go somewhere other than Kyoto, please let me know. I look forward to seeing you again soon. Koki
