“A very delightful and comprehensive Tour of Nara”
We had a fantastic day with Tomoe-san, who is a very knowledgeable and cheerful guide. Planning the day with her beforehand was simple and she responded very fast to any messages. Tomoe-san's explanations were never tedious, she knew the answers to all the questions we asked, kept a comfortable pace and found a nice place for lunch. Despite the many sights we covered, and the many tourists around, we had a relaxed day as she found ways to beat the crowds and took time to relax in beautiful Isuien Garden. It was great meeting you, Tomoe-san and we truly enjoyed chatting with you about many topics! Domo arrigato gosaimashita!

“An amazing day in Kyoto”
We spent a most enjoyable day in Kyoto with Yurico yesterday. Her knowledge was incredible and we truly took a step into the life of the Maiko and Geiko. The Temples and Shrines were fantastic. Yurico was friendly and informative, we would wholeheartedly recommend her tour. Thank you Yurico x

(42 reviews)Thank you for your quick and wonderful comment! I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed Kyoto tour around Gion area and Maiko experience. I also had a great time with you and your husband. Kyoto has a long history and deep culture, so please come to Kyoto again. If you visit Kyoto in July, you'll enjoy gorgeous Gion Festival. Gion Festival is held during a month, but there are special days you can enjoy special events. Please refer to below's information. (The popular Yoiyama Festival is held from July 14th to 16th, followed by July 21st to 23rd, during which Komagata lanterns are lit and Gion music is played. The highlight of the festival is the Yamahoko Procession, which takes place on July 17th and July 24th, with the Yamahoko parading through the streets of Miyako.) Many thanks, Yuriko
“Incredible tours!”
Thank you very much Akiko san for the wonderful excursions! We planned our tours with her for many months. She solved all our questions and problems. She helped us with the purchase of bus tickets and organized tours to factories for us, booked lunches in restaurants. We spent 2 weeks in Japan but had the strongest impressions during these two days. Akiko san is an excellent guide and a wonderful person. Thank you very much! Dmitry and Victoria
