“Day Tour to Biei & Furano”
I wanted to say a big thank-you to Asad. Our family did a day trip to Biei & Furano. From the very beginning, Asad was very informative and he communicated with me promptly whenever I had a query. He was very professional, punctual and kind. He has great knowledge of the area and the Japanese culture in general. My family thoroughly enjoyed our trip and it was one of the highlights to see the beautiful sceneries in Biei and Furano. Asad is also a great photographer for all our family photos. Thank-you Asad, and hope to meet you again next time we are in Japan.

“Sapporo Day Tour by car”
Asad was always very quick to communicate and extremely helpful with suggestions for what to do in our spare time. He was very aware of the closure of certain sites and made recommendations for alternative sites when the weather was not "participating" as expected. I highly recommend Asad and look forward to using his services again in Hokkaido.
