Mitch was great! He planned a wonderful day easily adapted on the fly as we spent more time shopping in Harajuku than expected. He made the day seamless with our driver and communicated effortlessly with us and vendors throughout the day. Thank you Mitch for an unforgettable experience.
We had a wonderful time exploring the shrine and markets of Kyoto with the nicest guide ever, Masako!!! She took us to a secluded Bamboo forest and knew all the history behind it. Amazing person and experience.
Michiko showed us the Meiji Jingu Shrine and then she introduced us to a wonderful traditional Japanese restaurant. There was no English menu, so we were very grateful that she translated the set lunch options for us. After lunch, she took us off the beaten path to Todoroki, where we explored the beautiful valley. We ended the day at the breathtaking Jōshin-ji Temple. As we arrived, a Buddhist service had just begun, and we were able to listen to the chanting. We respectfully observed from outside the hall and felt privileged to witness such a peaceful and moving moment of Japanese culture. It was an experience we and our kids will always remember. Michiko is a walking encyclopdia and is both serious as well as happy to provide funny facts!
We were genuinely delighted to read your wonderfully detailed account of your recent exploration. It truly sounds like you embarked on a captivating journey. We are particularly pleased that Michiko's expert guidance led you to the venerable Meiji Jingu Shrine and a charming local eatery, where her linguistic assistance proved invaluable with the menu. It's wonderful that she also unveiled the picturesque Todoroki Valley, a lesser-known gem, before culminating your day at the stunning Jōshin-ji Temple. We can only imagine the serenity and profound cultural resonance of witnessing the Buddhist service; it's genuinely special that this created an enduring memory for your entire family. Michiko's depth of knowledge, coupled with her knack for sharing both profound insights and delightful anecdotes, truly brought each location to life. Your wonderfully articulate praise for Michiko will certainly be passed on to her; it will be a tremendous source of encouragement. We deeply appreciate you taking the time to share such a memorable account. We eagerly anticipate the opportunity to welcome you back to Japan in the future.
