I have worked in the multi-national organizations including UN agency for around 30 years and stationed at various cities including Rome, Bangkok and Hanoi. Although I have retired from those international carriers, I wish to keep the international cooperation and develop the friendship with people who visits our country. As I like history and am practicing Noh song and wood curving of Buddha images, I have decided to live in Nara where is surrounded by many historical places and traditional cultures, when I returned back to Japan in 2017. I wish to offer you custom made trip ideas to be able to enjoy the atmosphere of old city, Nara. I am also planning to develop trip plans to enjoy the local cultures. Please call me Yasu.
I can guide you the tours in Kyoto and Osaka. However such tours will be prepared in customized manner in accordance with your request, if my transportation fees from Nara to either Kyoto or Osaka are paid by you.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!
“The Perfect Day”
Yasu was very attentive to the needs of my family and put together the perfect tour. The pace was steady and we saw a lot of what Kyoto had to offer even taking in some locale fare.

“Private Tour of Kyoto”
Yasu, was very responsive prior to the trip and arranged to meet us at Kyoto Station and even helped us on the way back navigate the bullet train tickets! He had arranged for a private taxi as the weather very hot and humid and and it allowed us to move quickly between destinations. As we were travelling from Tokyo and just doing the tour in Kyoto for a day, thus meant we could maximise our time and see as much as possible. Yasu's knowledge was exceptional and at every stop he gave us very insightful descriptions. In addition to the historical sights he showed us some of the cultural side of life in Japan, visiting parts of the old town, midtown where we saw festival floats that were highly decorated, and a famous market. Yasu was a charming, kind and had a fantastic knowledge base and wouldn't hesitate in recommending him to anyone. Kind regards, Adrian

“Excellent experience”
I booked Yasu san for a day trip to Nara for my parents (I've been to Nara before). My parents were delighted. He was always very punctual and kind. He had setup a plan for the day, but also during the day, he came up with suggestions that could be of more interest to my parents and adjusted accordingly. The day went smooth and delightful.
