Great guide

We were a family of 4 adults and 1 child. Atsuko was really accommodating and adjusted all the times considering a 4 year old. We saw what we planned and couldn't be happier.

Hello Ms. Elizabeth H, Thank you for your kind review and comment for me. I really enjoyed showing my home town to you. It was fun to talk with you and your family. Dahlia is very cute. I am happy I could join your family trip. Please let me know if you have any chance to visit Osaka again. Thank you for joining my tour. Best regards, Atsuko

Wonderful Day in Osaka and Nara!

Thanks to Atsuko we had a perfect day exploring Nara and Osaka with our two kids! She picked a great Sushi Restaurant for lunch and we learned so much about the Japanese history and Culture. 100% recommendations :)

Anke K.

Hello Ms. Anke, Thank you for your kind comment and review for me. It was great that we could visit both Nara and Osaka Castle today. I was worried if we could do this tour or not when I saw the pouring rain this morning. I really enjoyed talking with you and showing my favorite place, Nara. If you have another chance, please visit Nara again. Please say hello to everyone. Enjoy the Universal Studio tomorrow. Thank you. Best regards, Atsuko

Great introduction to Osaka

Atsuko was informative and very friendly. It was a great way to start our Japan journey and experience Osaka. Atsuko was able to accommodate our dietary needs and helped us with little tips for the rest of our stay in Osaka including restaurant recommendations near our hotel (as well as ways to find our way back to the hotel). I would highly recommend booking with Atsuko for enjoyable tour. Arigatou gozaimasu!
