Only in Nara, you can get the surreal experience of seeing over 1,000 deer roaming around Japan's ancient capital. There is no doubt that a tour to Nara where I show you the best sights will make good stories to tell your family and friends about your vacation!


Also, during the tour I can take photos and videos of your fun memories and share them with you later (I have 10,000 followers on Instagram, so I am good at photos and movies).

Osaka trip

Yuta was very flexible with his schedule and came to see us in Osaka from Kyoto. We spent a few hours and talked mostly about local customs and culture differences. I am sure there was a lot more he could have told us about historical facts, but the practical things such as how to navigate the metro system and other useful tips for nubes like us were way more interesting. He chose a few very interesting sites to show us and gave some nice recommendations for the evening. Overall an excellent experience and we would contact him again.

Ivana K.

Hi Ivana!! Thank you so much for your kind words! It was my pleasure to meet you and you family in Osaka and share insights about local customs and culture. There's always more to explore and I hope to guide you through more historical aspects next time. Your feedback is greatly appreciated and it was an excellent experience for me as well. Looking forward to our next adventure together! Thanks!! Yuta

Ausgezeichnete Reisef?hrung durch Kyoto

Wir hatten eine schöne Zeit mit Yuka in Kyoto. Da wir nicht mehr ganz so gut zu Fuß unterwegs sind, hat Yuka die Tour perfekt auf unsere Möglichkeiten angepasst. Wir haben bei der Führung sehr viel über das Leben in Japan von ihm erfahren. Während der Tour hat er uns die historischen Geschichten über die besuchten Tempel und Stadtviertel sehr gut näher gebracht. Vielen Dank an Yuka Marion und Gerhard

Gerhard W.

Hallo Gerhard!! Vielen Dank für deine Anmeldung zu meiner Tour! Es hat Spaß gemacht, mit euch alle beliebten Orte in Kyoto zu besuchen! Wir haben unterwegs über die unterschiedlichsten Themen gesprochen, beispielsweise über die Unterschiede zwischen der deutschen und der japanischen Kultur, und es war eine gute Zeit! Lass uns wieder zu treffen! Danke schön! Yuta

Yuta has been perfect from start to finish! He crafted a very personalized program, was great to chat with on any topic. We had a great time in Kyoto with him and we strongly recommend to select him as a guide!

Gwenaelle L.

Hello, Gwenaelle!! Thank you for booking my tour! I enjoyed our wide-ranging conversations on the tour. Your husband has a great sense of humor, and you asked me lots of questions about Japan, which was a lot of fun! I really enjoyed the conversation with you!! Unfortunately we had some rain, but I hope you could experience another Kyoto in this rainy atmosphere! Please let me know if you come to Japan again. Best regards, Yuta

There are so many great places in Kyoto that you probably want to visit but perhaps not enough time. Also, Kyoto is getting very crowded due to a lot of foreigners visiting there. It is best to have a local person guiding you to come up with a plan that suits your preference. I can create a tour with you which includes not only popular places like the Golden Pavilion and Fushimi Inari but small temples with Wabi Sabi such as those in Sagano and the oldest Japanese sweet shop in Murasakino.
