“Sugooooi ne!”
I booked a couple of tours with Naoki and this is one of them. We visited many places but what added value was Naoki's knowledge about them and his warm and generous hospitality. It also helped that he spoke perfect English, which left nothing to doubt and made our interactions a breeze.
