Very Good Guide in Armando

We enjoyed the service of Armando very much. Before the day of our tour, he made sure that he will pick us up from the correct port. He made sure that the car he rented was big enough to accommodate all of us in our group. He is very knowledgeable about Hirado Island where he showed us around. He also took us to a seafood restaurant with fresh and delicious seafood but not very expensive. We love our trip to Sasebo.

Thank you very much David! I appreciated your company and hope you will have many more wonderful travels in the future.

Nagasaki - worth a visit, especially the atomic bomb museum

Two things stand out in Armando’s skills as a guide: First, he knows the city well and is ready to adapt to and prepare himself for the wishes of his clients. So, secondly, he dors not offer a standard tour, but tries to satisfy the individual wishes of his clients. In our case, he took us around with his car, including to the hill where he lives,,and from where we could take a beautiful piicture of not only Nagasaki, but also our giant cruise ship that had brought us there. Thanks again Armando for a very special time together. Fred, Sandra and grandson Leo from Switzerland.
