“Awesome would use him again in a minute 5/5”
Very knowledgeable and very funny with a dry sense of humor. It was super hot but he let us call audibles all over the place and he was very flexible. We were traveling with my 83 year old mother in law and he was very thoughtful in making changes as things unfolded. She wanted to see a specific festival parade so he made it happen. Very happy and I would highly recommend. If you want to learn something about Japan he's great he was a teacher. Specifically, he talks about the perceptions (especially in the past) and the reality. It was very interesting. One thing he walks fast make sure you bring your sneakers! Thank you Hiro!

“Fantastic local guide in Kyoto”
Hiroshi is an excellent and knowledgeable guide. My guests wanted to tour Kyoto, so I asked Hiroshi to lead the tour. It was their honeymoon trip, and he made their trip unforgettable. You will learn everything about Kyoto from him. I highly recommend him :)
