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.

“Yuasa soya sauce town and Shirahama ”

We had the best time with Hiroyuki. He suggested the itinerary, made special arrangement to let us experience a hands on soya sauce making class, tried soya sauce ice cream, brought us to the oldest and best soya sauce maker in yuasa to buy soya sauce, ate the famous whitebait (shirasu) with rice and soya sauce which was delicious. He then drove us to Shirahama to see the breathtaking scenery of Sandanbeki cliffs and sunset at the beach. He doubled up as our photographer as well. He also made sure to call up the restaurant in advance for our dinner and we had the most delicious local Japanese dinner in Shirahama. He also takes into consideration our likes and offers us options and alternatives on where we can go. A tour guide who is knowledgeable, thoughtful and with lots of initiative. My whole family agree that this tour with Hiroyuki was one of the highlights of our trip! We highly recommend a day trip out of Osaka to Wakayama with Hiroyuki.
