“Fun, upbeat tour of Osaka”
Shuji led my family on a fun tour seeing the highlights of Osaka. Despite having limited time due to my cruise's port schedule, Shuji was able to guide my family through a number of the city's top highlights. Shuji's easy-going personality made it easy for him to connect with all members of my family group, ranging in age from 12 to 75. Shuji also took photos of our group at many of the top sites; his photos were excellent, and some of my favorites from the trip!

Thank you for the kind review. It reminded me of our tour. Yes, it was really fun. We changed the plan from the start. We were a bit lucky to have a nice table for the lunch. I could have spend more time with you all. I hope this tour and photos will be good memories for you all. Thank you very much. Shuji O.

“ A Truly Unforgettable Day in Hakone”
From the moment we met Hideaki, we knew we were in for a special day. We appreciated his knowledge of the area and his considerations of our interests, fitting in a wonderful visit to the Hydrangea gardens and a delicious lunch! He was really flexible with changes to our booking and made the process of catching trains and buying tickets much easier. We loved the breathtaking ropeway ride over the volcanic Owakudani Valley, and the boat trip on the lake. We loved the connection to Evangelion!!! Lunch was a highlight — a local restaurant tucked away from the tourist paths, with the most delicious curry. Throughout the day, we never felt rushed. Hideaki was patient and looked after us— adjusting the pace to suit our needs, making sure we were comfortable and engaged. It was a very hot day and my husband became unwell, causing us to cancel our plans the next day but we hope to return to Japan and we would use Hideaki again.

Megan-san, Thank you very much for your review. I’m very glad to know that you enjoyed the tour even though we couldn’t see Mt. Fuji and it was very hot. Next time, please come to Japan in Spring or Autumn when it’s not so hot. Hideaki Murayama
