Kyoto Tour Reviews

Kyoto Golden Route (Nijo Arashiyama Kinkakuji Fushimi Inari)
“Wonderful tour with Hideo”
Hideo is a lovely, knowledgeable guide. We spent a full day exploring Kyoto and the surrounding areas. He shared the civil and religious history of each site, answering all our questions along the way. Spend a day with Hideo, you’ll leave Kyoto with a deeper understanding and appreciation!

(159 reviews)I'm very happy to receive your excellent review. We visited Adashino Nembutsuji Temple, Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. We could see beautiful lotus flowers at Tenryuji Temple. I remembered your daughter prayed for her dream in front of Benzaiten at Kinkakuji Temple. In Fushimi Inari Taisha we enjoyed walking through 1,000 torii Gates. Thank you for joining my Kyoto tour. I wish you and your family good health and happiness.
“A great day touring Kochi with Hideo!”
We had a lovely day touring the city of Kochi with Hideo Y. He is a delightful man and was very knowledgeable about all of the places we visited. There were 9 in our party with kids aging from 10-17. We had a micro bus and that was a great way to get around. We started at Kochi Castle then went to Katsurahama Beach and Ryogado Cave. We enjoyed each of the locations and Hideo did an amazing job educating us while keeping the kids engaged. I highly recommend Hideo, he was definitely a highlight for our trip.

(159 reviews)I'm very glad to have your wonderfl review. You visited the castle for the first time. Kochi castle has 4 stories outside but 6 floors inside. We saw iron spikes on the top of stone walls that block enemies from climbing up for the defense. Ryugado cave is one of the 3 biggest limestone caves in Japan. We could enjoy sightseing cave such as Jellyfish Stone, Thousand pillars, Memorial Waterfall and the like. We had good exercises on that day. We walked up and down many stairs in the castle and the cave. Your kids were alive and kicking. I wish you and your family all the best.
“Excellent Experience ”
Hideo was a great guide. He secured game tickets for us before we arrived in Japan. He was prompt and met us at our hotel on time. After navigating us to the stadium and our seats, he provided insight into the traditions of Japanese baseball. At the end of the game, he led us back to our hotel.

(159 reviews)I'm very happy to receive you excellent review. I'm sure you enjoyed Jaoanaese baseball game. Before the game, supporter team show its dance. Everytime the team get a score, fans begin to sing the fight song. When the games won come close, fans call "one more plyer" "One more ball." Finally fans made a big chorus "Banzai" and the fight song again. I'm sure you had a great experience how to enjoy Japanese baseball. I wish you and all your family good health and happiness.
