“A Lovely Day with Hideo visiting Kochi.”
My family of five had a wonderful day touring via private taxi with Hideo visiting Kochi's top sites during our short window during our port stop from our cruise. You have to pay extra cash for the taxi, but this was still cheaper than the excursions offered via our cruise ship for our family. Hideo was able to tailor our trip ahead of time and was very communicative about some changes that needed to be made due to the garden closure on our day in Kochi. Hideo walked with us in the city pointing out the famous red Harimaya Bridge and came back at the top of the hour to show us the beautiful mechanical clock. He walked with us and gave us excellent history at the Kochi Castle, at the Katsurahama Beach where we viewed the famous samurai Sakamoto Ryoma statue and had an excellent bonito/tuna meal (my girls had steak), and ice cream. Finally we toured the lovely Buddhist temple Chikurinji, temple 31 of the 88 on the island of Shikoku. Hideo was prompt, kind and modified his tour a bit when the very hot and humid weather slowed down the family. Hideo provided a wealth of information and answered all of the questions that we had about Kochi and Japan. I highly recommend using Hideo as a guide. You will be in very caring hands.

“Two tours with Hiroyuki”
My family did two tours with Hiroyuki one in Osaka and another in Kyoto. Both tours were excellent. Tours were customized to our needs, well timed, informative and Mr Hiroyuki was always attentive to our desires thru the tours. Would highly reccomend his services to anyone traveling in those cities. I usually dont write reviews but felt he did such a good job that I decided to share with others.

“Amazing Tour ”
We had an amazing tour with Hiroyuki. It was informative, well planned and flexible to meet our needs. We were a family of 4 adults and my daughter said that Hiroyuki "was a great teacher". His recommendation on the vegetarian lunch was excellent (and this coming from someone that loves bacon and meat. Try it, you wont be disappointed). Thank you Mr Hiroyuki for a wonderful tour.
