Kyoto visit

Kazu is a very good guide. He guided us through Kyoto and took us to many of the key spots. He was very timely and organized. He explained where we were going and what we were going to see and how we were going to get there. He also communicated very well before the trip. I would highly recommend Kazu as a guide!

Reena P.

Thank you for the nice review. I am glad you had a good time. I hope this tour will be a memorable tour in Japan. I hope you will come back to Japan again. Thank you very much!!

Day trip to Nara!

Kazu was awesome! He met us at our hotel and helped navigate the public transit system so we could go to Nara. We were excited for the deer, but the temples blew us away. Very beautiful! He brought all these pamphlets and instruction sheets to help with history which was appreciated. Then a great local lunch spot! Highly recommend this tour!

Fantastic Vacation!! Fantastic Tour Guide, Kazu!!!

Our first time to Japan. We were family group of 6 people. Hired Kazuhiko for two days in Osaka and Kyoto. Money well spent and highly recommend to get a local tour guide like Kazu. He customized the tour to our needs and wants and adjusted more time in locations where we wanted to spend more time to shop. Also, you'll save so much time with a local like Kazu since he not only knows the language of course but, knows their train system. The Japan train stations are very efficient but, very complicated for first-timers that don't speak or read the language. Even with Google maps it can be confusing and you can get on wrong stations and trains. Kazu just breezed us through various train and subway connections to reach our destinations. In summary, Kazu is a 5 Star Tour Guide!! He is a great reflection of the culture and people of this beautiful country

Norman M.

Thank you for the nice review. I am glad I could spend a good time with your nice family too. I hope you will come to Japan again. Thank you very much !!
