Wakayama Private Tours

“True story of family reunion”

I can hardly express the depth of my gratitude to Hiroyuki. What began as a simple your turned into a life-changing experience for my family. We brought fragments of information about our ancestral history, and he knew exactly the steps to take to discover information. Without giving too much detail, he brought my elderly parent together with their long-lost cousin, and then patiently served as an interpreter for them to communicate. This was a defining moment for my parent and they were in tears. This would not have been possible without Hiroyuki. Thank you so, so much. I can't recommend him enough.

It was a great pleasure for me that your mother met her cousin in Japan. But it was a little regretable that you did have a lot of time in Esumi. Just let me know if there are something more that I can do for you. Remember that I am in Wakayama. Hiro

Lundie san, Thank you very much for such a wonderful message. It was really nice spending time with you and the group. I like clients like you who show interests and pay respect to our culture and religions. As I explained, you can see original shape of the nature worship in Japan in Kumano. Waterfalls , Rocks, and forest are the deities themselves there. As I will go to Kumano next week, I will tell the Kumano deities that you will come next year. Thank you very much and take care. Hiro

“Amazing experience”

Hideo Y was an amazing guide. He was knowledgeable about the places we went to. He was fun and you could tell he enjoyed showing those he guided about his country and its history. I would recommend him for any tour.

In Nachi waterfall, this is the first time that I've ever seen a large mount of water enegetically flowing down. Three-legged crow called "Yatagarasu" is the symbol of Kumano region, and the symbol mark of Japan National scooer team. Thank you for joining my tour. I wish you all the best in the future.
