“Well Spent Day in Kochi”

we were picked up and headed to the Ryugado cave which was an adventure. Hideo was extremely informative about the cave. the cave is 4 kms long but we only have access to 1 km. with steps and hand rails some of the rock formations are beautiful. really good outing with an enthusiastic guide. next was lunch after lunch we went to the Makino Botanical Garden and learnt about Dr. Makino - he must have been a brilliant Botanist. across the road was the Godaisan Chikurinji temple. was the perfect way to round off the day. Hideo was organized, enthusiastic and passionate about his material. a day very well spent.

“HANSHIN Tigers baseball game”

Hideoshi was an excellent guide and met our group of 4 at the Osaka station before taking us on the express train to the game. He came prepared with jerseys to borrow for our group, noise makers and interesting information on the team and players. He took us to the team shop before the game to navigate getting balloons for a 7th inning fun event. We had such a great time with him and he’s an amazing guide. I highly recommend booking any tour with Hideo

Thank you for joininig my Japanese baseball game tour. I'm very glad to receive your excellent review. About 40,000 spectators enjoyed watching the baseball game at Hanshin Koshien Stadium. I make it a point to bring jerseys, noisemakers and new Hanshin Tigers information sheet at every tour. I'm sure you enjoyed raising yellow balloons at the 7th inning. Also you amazed how Japanese audiences back up their team. I hope to see you again. I wish you all the best in the future.

“Osaka castle, Dotombori and New World visits”

We were a family of three adults, guided by Hideo on July 13, 2026. It took us a while to locate Hideo inside and outside of the Osaka ship terminal. Finally we went back inside and found him sitting near the window. I was shocked to not able to recognize him because Hideo appeared much senior in person, than his posted picture here. Nevertheless, Hideo guided us to the Osaka castle via subway, brought us to lunch at Dotombori, and ended with a tour of Shin-Sekai (New World). We appreciated Hideo in finding the elevators and resting areas for my husband, who had mobility issues with his left foot. I personally found it hard to understand what Hideo was saying during the tour. I think his written English here is better than his spoken one. There was definitely a language barrier here.

Thank you for your honest opinions and for taking the time to write them. I'm going to improve my English-speaking skill from this experience. I think I could use elevators, escalators for your father as much as possible. I hope I guide you the tour again in the future.
