Wonderful!!

From the very beginning of the process Masahisa was very generous with his time, providing plethora of practical information & advise ( not only for our tour with him, but for our overall stay in Japan). His organizational skills, punctuality & professionalism made our tour very efficient. His sense of humor, in depth knowledge of history & tons of interesting & unusual facts made a big difference in how we spent the day. Small gestures of generosity (one of them, getting deer treats in advance) were very touching. Thank you very much & hope to use your services again!!

Ena I hope the long walk through Nara Park was not too tiring for you. It was wonderful to welcome you back to Nara after 11 years. I would be delighted to hear how the city felt on your second visit. I sincerely hope that the rest of your trip in Japan will be memorable and that you both return home safely. Thank you again for visiting us from afar all the way. Thanks Masahisa

Exploring Osaka

We booked Mike for Osaka tour after we had an amazing tour a few days earlier in Kyoto. Once again very thoughtful itinerary was planned for us to take into the the Museum, Tenjin Shopping Street, Kiromon Market Dotonbori street for lunch. A highlight was Sumiyoshi Taisha Shrine and a delightful tram ride. Another memorable day with Mike exploring Osaka.

Nino Thank you so much for traveling such a long way to visit Japan. I feel honored to have guided you in Kyoto and Osaka, and I’m very happy to know the tours added something meaningful to your trip. Please take home many wonderful memories, and I hope our paths cross again someday. Thanks Masahisa

Exploring Kyoto in Rakutou (East) and Rakuchu (Central)

The tour with Mike was unbelievable. We packed so much in to one day and all learned quite a lot about Kyoto and the many beautiful shrines and temples to explore. Th opportunity to gain access and visit some of the lesser known and less busy Shrines was a bonus and we are very grateful to Mike for suggesting these and helping us to arrange the passes. This is a great way to contrast Kyoto more known tourist spots with the beauty and calmness of the imperial gardens Thank you Mike.
