“Most memorable Japan trip”
With Rina as my local guide I had the most fun, enjoyable, and memorable trip of all the Japan trips I’ve done! Rina has exceeded my expectations and gave me the best local experience of Osaka and Kyoto especially with my first Ohanami / Cherry Blossom trip in Kyoto. In addition, Rina was very flexible and accommodating every day when I was with her. The local foods and scenes/vibes were truly so good! I really highly recommend Rina to anyone as their local guide. Thank you so much, Rina-san! Hontoni Arigatou! Warm regards, -Mandy
