developed in Japan as well. I can offer you not only historic places like Nijo castle, Kinkakuji temple ,Kiyomizu temple etc., but also off the beaten track spots Nijo jinya house or nicknamed
"ninjya house" ,Katsura Imperial Villa etc.. I am really looking forward to seeing you .

“Wonderful guide and tour”
Hiroshi was an excellent guide. He thought about what we wished to see and applied his zeal to deliver his guided tour with style, humour and enthusiasm. We learnt so much and we especially appreciated his insights into Japanese life. We cannot recommend Hiro too highly. Ochini!

Dear Michael L. I am very grateful to you for your great reviews on a full day tour in Kyoto. During the tour I gave you some kinds of tough questions about the temples , shrines and ordinary people's life styles etc. Amazingly, both of you got correct answers from tough and strange questions ! I also enjoyed guiding such a guest who has profound knowledge about Japanese culture and history, thank you. Best regards May 8 Hiroshi Y.
