(9 reviews)Dear Jee, thank you for the chance to show these two cities. It was a great learning experience for me and I had much fun with. Happy travels!
“Amazing tours of Kyoto!”
Where do I begin?! Ana is an incredible guide! We spent 1.5 wonderful, inspiring, information-filled days with her in Kyoto and I wish we could have had her with us the rest of our trip. She seems to know everything about everything (truly, there wasn't a single question we asked that she couldn't answer). She's wonderful with kids — she was so kind and patient with our young children, who absolutely adored her (my 7 year old daughter was holding her hand by the end of our first day together). She also advised us well about visiting sites that weren't part of our tour and some of our best family photos of our trip were taken by her. We feel lucky to have met her and we're so grateful to have had her guidance. We highly, highly recommend Ana!

(9 reviews)Dear Marta, thank you for the kind review. It was such a treat for me to spend a day and a half with your family! The children were amazing and under your wonderful parental guidance, they were patient and open to trying things during the tour. It was a bittersweet moment to say my goodbyes to everyone and I am so grateful for choosing me to show you Kyoto. I wish you all much health and joyous days ahead️.
“Exceptional Tour Experience with Ana in Kyoto”
Ana is not only a wonderful tour guide, but she is also incredibly flexible. Whether it was accommodating our schedule or adapting the tour to suit our son's needs, she was always ready to adjust and ensure our comfort. Her knowledge of Kyoto is extensive and impressive and she conveys it in a way that is both engaging and enjoyable. Her kindness towards our nine-month-old son was particularly touching. She was patient, engaging, and always considerate of his needs. We couldn't have asked for a better guide! 10/10 would recommend!
