“Family Kyoto Trip”
Takashi is awesome. He takes you to the must see place in Kyoto. He know many local shortcuts and time schedules to avoid big crowds. He has a lot of knowledge of the Japanese culture and history of the temples . I went with my Wife, 20 year old son, 12 and 9 year old daughters. He explained also everything to them in a fun way to make it interesting according to their age. He speaks perfect Spanish, English and of course Japanese. 100% recommendation!!

“One of the best guided tours we have taken!”
Takashi is awesome! He was on time, super friendly, accommodating, and knowledgeable. After our initial request, he designed a custom tour to fit the needs of our family. He took us to the right places and provided the historical context for each location and allowed the kids to engage in. He is very engaging and you don’t get bored at all. I would have never visited those specific places and would not know the context behind any of those beautiful places had Takashi not guided us. He also rented a right vehicle to cater to our family needs on our request. I highly recommend Takashi if you are in Osaka/Kyoto region. Thanks Takashi!

Tour of Osaka Tenjin-matsuri Festival / Cruising on the river
(Highlights) Held in the evening of July 25 each year, this festival attracts more than a million spectators. Dozens of rafts full of invited, kimono-clad people towed by small boats go upstream the major river in the heart of Osaka, while on-lookers watch from the river bank, nearby bridges and the pier. There stand stalls selling varieties of food, filling in every nook and corner of the river bank. Thousands of fireworks are shot up into the night sky to the great enjoyment of visitors. (Origin of the festival) The myth says that in the year 951, two years after God descended from heaven and settled in the Tenmangu Shrine, they flowed a sacred float in the river from the nearby beach and a funeral hall was built and "misogi" purification ceremony held at the shore where the float reached. Then, those living near the shrine and worshipers built a ship to contributed to the shrine. (How to enjoy) You can see rafts full of "yukata"-clad people in the festive mood on board slowly going upstream the river, while being soaked in the cool evening atmosphere. After dark, fireworks setting the skies ablaze make you sigh in joyful excitement. You can have whatever food you like at the stalls built in the riverbank. (Transportation) The JR train fare from Kyoto station to Osaka station is 560 yen and the subway fare, 180 yen. (Others) Since the venue is very crowded, please do your utmost in protecting yourself from being bumped by others and from theft. If you are there on the days other than the festival day, you can enjoy cruising on board a sightseeing ship called "Osaka water-bus" for a fee of 1,700 yen for one-hour ride. You can see the landscape of Osaka city from different angles as the ship sails along the river. Daytime only, however.
