“Superb Okinawa war tour ”
Hero is the best tour guide I have ever met! could speak English and mandarin, very responsible, patient and dedicated. Would watch out for my elderly dad and make sure we are safe and comfortable. He also thought of ways to minimise walking up steps for my dad. He drove my rented car which made it easier for me not to have to navigate the area. We did the military tour. His military background and war history knowledge really enriched our tour very much. Will definitely recommend him to anyone visiting Okinawa!

“Very Intelligent and Beautiful Guide!”
I was fortunate to have Mika as my guide. I contacted Mika about 1 year ago before my actual visit of Kotohira, Kagawa on May 7, 2025. She was so kind and patient helping me with the itinerary, diligent in researching the sites I wanted to visit and suggesting sites based on my interests. I finally met her, and I had the most wonderful experience, it was one of the best days I had in Japan. I visited touristic, non touristic sites and museums thanks to Mika. She speaks perfect English and lived in the US when she was young. Mika is educated, cultured, very nice and pleasant. I would hire her again if and when I visit Kotohira again in the future. Widdy

“Osaka Hidden Gem”
This was another memorable day tour with Hiroyuki, and my sister and I had a great time exploring different parts of Osaka. In keeping with his story-telling style, Mr Hiro shared his knowledge of the city, its architecture and its history, adding to the richness of the tour experience. My sister walks with a cane and Mr Hiro took extra care with her while we were navigating through subways and train stations, and along garden paths and old city streets. Thank you for your kindness and patience. We can’t wait to return for more tours with Hiroyuki.
