Thank you for your time and patience!

Thank you Ana for the wonderful tour of Kyoto,

Ana is an excellent tour guide, she speaks English very well, and her deep knowledge of Japanese history and culture is incredible. She navigates the Kyoto transportation system with great efficiency and is fluent in Japanese. Her organization skills let us visit all attractions on our itinerary, we never felt rushed and she even stayed with us a little longer to help us catch a train back to Osaka. We highly recommend Ana as your tour guide. Jonna & Peter
