“A great morning with Hiro”
We had a great morning with Hiro on a very warm day in Kyoto in July, We visited Nijo castle and Chion-in temple, Hiro led us to parts of the sites that we would have missed on our own, and explained their features and history in interesting and sometimes amusing ways. We really enjoyed the tour, and highly recommend Hiro as a guide!

“Kyoto Flash”
Hiro is such an amazing guide! He really takes his time to explain all the sites and their history. He even interacted with my son and made learning fun by testing his knowledge. I highly recommend using Hiro to explore Kyoto's main sites in just one day.
