“Exceed expectations!”
It was wonderful day in Kyoto! Koki is lovely person and very well organized. All trip was prepared and planned perfectly, but also he surprised me showing charming places in Kyoto not often visited by tourist. Thanks to him I found charm of old Japanese capital. I experienced tea ceremony in old temple wearing exceptional kimono. Sorry, we had only one day trip! I hope to come back one day. I recommend this guide to everybody with all my heart. My memories are wonderful.

Hi Jola san, I am truly honored to receive such wonderful comments. Joja-san looked absolutely stunning in your kimono. The color coordination was perfect. Please do come to Kyoto next time with your daughter. Stay for a leisurely visit and enjoy Kyoto to the fullest! I sincerely look forward to seeing you again in the near future! Koki

“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

Fully customizable your own private tour in Kyoto
There are so many great places in Kyoto that you probably want to visit but perhaps not enough time. 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 one of the oldest Japanese sweets shops in Murasakino.
