“Wonderful tour ”
We had a wonderful tour with Toshiyo-san. She was very flexible and really worked with our schedule for the day. She also did a quick stop at a shrine that I had not heard of and it was so nice and peaceful. Having a custom tour was great and we were able to get around much quicker to some of the further out places than if we used the bus. Super knowledgeable of the area and customs. Loved her so much! Totally recommend :D
