“Stop searching and select this guide for a personalized, informed and optimized tour”
Nobuko (aka Nono-san) made our day in Kyoto memorable. Her attention to detail let us enjoy the surrounds and really enjoy ‘the moment’ without concerns for the next step. Timing was flexible and suggestions were outstanding. It is always daunting for someone who is not a local to optimize time in a city, but with Nono-san’s vast knowledge we saw more than expected and would have paid more. It’s always best to use a professional. We could not imagine a better day in Kyoto. H

Dear Deborah-san, Thank you so much for your incredibly kind words—it truly means a lot to me. I’m deeply grateful I could be part of your day and help make your time in Kyoto special. It was a real pleasure spending the day with you and Joann-san, and I hope the rest of your journey is just as wonderful. With heartfelt thanks, Nono

“Best days in Japan”
Nobuko is an outstanding guide for the whole family (4 years, 10 years, parents), and she made our 2 days together the best 2 days of our trip. She is warm, engaging, entertaining, provides interesting details, and cares for specific needs (e.g. restaurants for vegetarians, use of a stroller, finding a place to play). We highly recommend Nobuko after our time with her in Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka. She's an excellent communicator, both verbally and via text/email. My little boy asked every day for more time with Nono.
Nobuko O.
Dear Julie-san, Thank you so much for your wonderful message. I’m truly honored to hear that your family enjoyed our two days together, and it makes me very happy that the time we spent in Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka became a highlight of your trip. Your kind words mean a great deal to me. It was a pleasure guiding your family, and I’m especially touched to hear that your little boy wanted to spend more time with me—please tell him that made my day. As the holiday season approaches, I wish you and your family a very Merry Christmas and a joyful New Year. May the coming year bring you health, happiness, and many wonderful adventures. I hope we will have the opportunity to meet again in Japan in the future. Warm regards, Nobuko(Nono)

“The finest of Travel Guides.”
NoNo is absolutely amazing. Her knowledge is deep and delivered in a fun manner. She was highly adaptable to our needs and very considerate. We sat down for lunch and I asked NoNo to go through the history of the Samurai, Shogun and the Emperor - out came a chart, wow, I could place Henry V111 in and Queen Victoria where certain events were, we loved her. Thank you NoNo, you made this day highly memorable and we appreciate you even more for that. Go well our friend.
Nobuko O.
Dear Mary-san and Jo-san, Thank you so much for your incredibly kind message! It was truly an honor to spend the day with both of you. Your generosity, warmth, and curiosity made guiding such a joy, and I felt very fortunate to share the experience with you. I deeply appreciated your openness and enthusiasm throughout our time together. Moments like these—when I can connect with such thoughtful and wonderful people—are what make my work so rewarding. It was an absolute pleasure, and I will always cherish the memories of our day together. I hope our paths cross again someday! With heartfelt gratitude, NoNo

Explore Best View Of Eastern Kyoto Tour
We can go to the Ginkakuji temple by bus and walk along the philosopher's path. Then visit Heian shrine or Nanzenji temple. After that, Gion district to Kiyomizu-temple, we can appreciate different historical sites and shops too. It should be 1.5hs walk. Take a bus or taxi if we get tired or run out of time but it could be easy walk and we gonna have a great time I guess.
