“Highly recommended”
Shuichi-san was a wonderful guide. We really appreciated his great English, his good humour and easy going manner. We originally had just been interested in a Ghibli tour but found this combined tour and decided to try it. It was such good fortune. The architecture museum is excellent as a standalone tour but even better when combined with Ghibli because of the inspiration it provided to Miyazaki-san, something we hadn’t been aware of. Great day.
