About Tour Guide Yuka M.

“Toured the major temples in Kyoto”

Yuka was terrific. Planned a perfect schedule of site visits including a great off-the-beaten-path restaurant. For anyone traveling to Kyoto she is the one to select. A local with intimate knowledge of her city

“Perfect day exploring Kyoto!”

My family loved our day with Yuka. Before we even met her, Yuka was great about messaging in advance to plan out our customized day. We went to the Saiho-Ji moss temple in the morning. Yuka had a printed handout of the history of the moss temple, so everyone understood the history of it. After Yuka saw how much our kids enjoyed the Nishiki Market, she recommended we visit the basement floor of the main department store. I had heard how neat the "food floor" of the department store was from friends who had visited Japan. My kids enjoyed that add-on to our day. Yuka was so friendly and easy to talk to. We would recommend Yuka to any family.

Thank you so much for having me as your guide. It was a nice contrast of the quietness in the moss temple and the crowds in the downtown area, I guess. I'm glad that you could get to see the both side of Kyoto and I also love your family. You all are very respectful to the temple policy and our culture and history as well. I really appreciate it. Thank you very much for taking time to write this review and I'm honored to receive such a good recommendation. I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan and to see you again!

“Amazing experience!!”

Yuka was an outstanding guide in Kyoto! We had limited time, but thanks to her planning and knowledge, we were able to see all of the major highlights without ever feeling rushed. She was organized, friendly, and incredibly helpful throughout the day. Yuka shared fascinating insights about Kyoto’s history and culture, helped us navigate efficiently, and made sure we got the most out of every stop. She was also patient with our questions and went above and beyond to ensure we had a memorable experience
