Reviews
“Lovely Day with Uuki”
Uuki was professional and accommodating in all respects. We hired her for half a day tour of Kyoto. She was kind enough to make an itinerary, but as we went though the day, it seemed apparent that we just preferred to allow the day to take us where the wind blew. It took patience and flexibility, and she was great through it all with great knowledge of the area. She was also a natural conversationalist who was able to communicate well with everyone in my family which consisted of me and my wife (in our 50s) and my sons (ages 17 and 23). Awesome day and I would look for Uuki again on my next visit to either Kyoto or Osaka.

Dear Christian, sorry for my late reply firstly:) I appreciate your family's patience and kindness. Thank you so much for the those advice which helps me. I hope everything all great in NewYork!( if I’m remembering it right:)
“Amazing guide!!!”
Uuki was a great guide for my family and I during our trip to Japan, she made us feel so comfortable and gave us more than enough time to explore and shop around. Uuki was very mindful and helped us make a good itinerary within the time frame. We would use her again if we came back to Japan!!

Dear Lucero, I’m so happy you said so, thank you for those best memories your family members have brought me. Hope I can see you again someday!:)<3
“Minoo Falls and America-mura”
Uki was an excellent guide to the water fall in Minoo park and my 18 year old son was looking for a place to find cool clothes. Uki suggested America-mura and my son was able to find what he was looking for. Uki helped us find food along the way and made suggestion for the rest of our time in Osaka.

Hanshin Koshien Stadium is the mecca of both high school baseball and professional baseball. The stadium was built in 1924 and named the Koshien stadium. It's the oldest baseball stadium in Japan and the third oldest baseball stadium in the world. It is said that the stadium was modeled after the Polo Grounds, the home of the New York Giants.
