“One day Koya trip”
Nobuko (NoNo) was a great one-day tour guide. She met us promptly at the hotel and took us through the itinerary for the day, making sure we were ready for the experience. Once in Koyasan, she took us for a well-paced walk through the cemetery, stopping at multiple shrines, graves and other points of interest, which we would have otherwise missed the significance of. When we reached the most holy place on the tour, where etiquette had to be strictly observed, NoNo explained in a helpful way to make sure we understood the significance of where we were and how to get the most of this unique experience. We toured further temples after lunch, but NoNo made sure our 13 year old son stayed invested and interested in the tour, including when it was time to take an ice cream break ;). Lastly, she made sure we were correctly checked into the Buddhist Monks' monastery for our overnight stay before leaving us. We recommend you book NoNo for your tour!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Sibylle san! I'm thrilled to hear that you and your family had a fabulous day in Kobe. It was a pleasure guiding you all, and your recommendation means a lot to me!
“Kyoto in One Day”
Nobuko-san is an outstanding and enthusiastic guide. She speaks excellent English and is exceptionally knowledgeable about Japanese culture, people, and foods. She is active and encouraged questions during our customized and preferred physically demanding walks/hikes throughout the day. She found the best experiences during our planned activities and ensured the impromptu lunch venue was of a quality experience. Nobuko-san is also humorous and made us laugh through the day. She is now a friend and an honorary family member.
