Reviews

Gion/Temple for deaf solo traveller

Jasmine had been very excellent throughout the guided tour. I’m impressed by how knowledgeable she is about Gion and the temple. The route she designed for this tour is very relaxing and easy-paced, which is excellent! Just what I needed after some heavy walking during my trip around Japan :) If you need a relaxing day and don’t want to put too much strain on your legs, and want to learn more about the history of Gion and its temple, then this tour will be perfect for you. I will recommend it to everyone. A must-try!

Great guide!

Jasmine was a really great guide, very kind sweet and smart. She was there on time and her knowledge of the city of Kyoto is immensely big she knows all about the culture and answered all the questions very confidently. She had a great recommendations for restaurants and shopping spots as well as she knew how to move around the temples and the shrines, giving you the best perspective of Kyoto and it’s all within walking distance. She was very attentive and well spoken and her English is really good. We are more than satisfied with her job and we would recommend this tour for anyone who is coming to Kyoto because it will amplify and make your experience so much better and you will learn a lot of things with her. she was a great photographer since she offered to take pictures and even gave us a little parting gift before the tour 0 The best guide in Kyoto! I

A lovely day filled with history and flexibility!

Jasmine did a great job of communicating ahead of time all the logistics and answered all my questions. During the tour she was very knowledgeable and super friendly. We have younger children who aren’t from a walking city so Jasmine altered the day to fit the needs of our family. It was a wonderful tour and we highly recommend Jasmine!
