Japan Tour Reviews

An Amazing Day in Kyoto!

Our group had such an outstanding time with Jasmine. She was extremely kind, knowledgeable and enthusiastic during our time together. We began our tour with a visit to Hanami-koji Geisha Street where we had the good luck of seeing two maiko. Jasmine provided a very informative talk on the geisha and the tea houses in Kyoto. Later in the day we visited Yasaka Pagoda Tower, Kiyomizu Dera Temple and Yasaka Shrine. Jasmine did an wonderful job of pointing out the significance of each location. Along the way we stopped for several snacks, including the refreshing pickle on a stick, and a couple of shopping trips to purchase souvenirs unique to Kyoto. Jasmine's knowledge of and her pride in Kyoto made the tour one that exceeded our expectations. Thank you Jasmine!

Best Halfday in Kanazawa

We had the best 4 hours in Kanazawa with our guide Raphaël P. We wish we had had more time to make it a full day. He allowed us to choose the locations to visit within our timeframe, was very knowledgeable of local and general Japanese history. Highlight I think was Kenroku-en. They work hard at preserving the beautiful trees

Louise! Thank you very much for choosing me as your guide! I agree, more time would have been nice but I really think we did the best we could looking at the constraints of the day. It was a pleasure guiding you all (and not only because you were all Aussies & I could reminisce on a few memories)! I wish you the absolute best second half of your trip! Kind regards, Raphaël

Best tour guide in the world

The friendliest and the most informed tour guide we have ever met. My brother and I are 2 single guys and Dai catered to us and showed us all the cool places we will never forget. He’s friendly, always happy, and super helpful. Definitely book him and you will have a great trip you’ll never forget

Thank you for your thoughtful review! I was satisfied with unfogettable moments thanks to both of you. I believe we are almost like real brothers and explored "the new world" (for even me lol). Hopefully, I want to offer the great tour that's even better with a vast of suggestions next time!

Private Tours in Japan

Learning about Japan has never been easier with our local, expert tour guides leading the way, from a tour through Okayama, to the inner gems of Shikoku.

Ready to take on Japan’s sites and go beyond the usual? Kurashiki's Bikan Historical Quarter is a beautifully preserved Edo-period district, and with a knowledgeable tour guide, you can encounter traditional architecture, willow-lined canals, and charming shops. From historical context, to share stories about the area, it’s time to see the land of the rising sun the right way.

To see a side of Japan not commonly noticed, talk to a local tour guide about peaceful pockets of relaxation like Iya Valley, a rugged setting with high cliffs, vine bridges, and traditional thatched-roof houses waiting to be explored.
