“A day out in historic Nara ”
Our day started with Hiroshi kindly picking us up from our accommodation. Hiroshi was friendly and charming from the moment we met. He walked us with ease to the historical centre of Nara showing us the deer, temples and shrines. Hiroshi did this while sharing his understanding of Japans history, culture and practices, explaining the reasoning behind much of what we saw and how the buildings we came across altered or adapted over many hundreds of years. Hiroshi’s fun easy character bought the whole experience to life. It turned out to be a fantastic day out. Thank you Hiroshi. I would highly recommend asking Hiroshi to guide you round historic Nara.

“Amazing day with Hiro - highly recommend! ”
With a career as a teacher, our day with Hiro was highly informative but also a lot of fun! He guided us around the city for a packed day of shrines and other key sites in the city. He made the day fun with some quizzes through the day and small talk. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a good day of sight seeing in Kyoto!

Dear Brandon V I am grateful to you for your great reviews on one day tour in Kyoto. Every site you visit was so busy because of coming to the Year End day of Dec 31, which is one of the most important festive days in Japan. Even though you visited only 3 must-see sites, I think you had a pleasant day in such a beautiful city in Kyoto. Best regards Jan 7 Hiroshi Y.
