This tour with Yoskue was the best tour we did on our trip. He came out with and explained everything. Was super accomodating and informative.
We loved our day so much and got to do everything. We did alot of other tours on our trip but nothing compared to the way Yoskue conducted the tour.

Highly recommend/great time
We had such a great tour with Henry. He was kind, knowledgeable, and made everything feel easy. There’s no way we could’ve seen this much in just 8 hours on our own, he took us to all the must-see spots in Kyoto and Nara and knew exactly where to go for the best photos and quickest routes. Highly recommend!

Nara and Kyoto private tour
Great private tour of Kyoto and Nara. Guide was fantastic and it saves a lot of time. Aldo, guide and driver help avoid crowds.

Nara Park & Kyoto site seeing
We really enjoyed our day trip seeing Nara Park, KinkaKuJi, other local temples, Arashiyama area, local suggested lunch and the pretty garden area we saw during our site seeing tour. Yoshimura was an excellent 👌🏼 guide. Nice ride and pleasant day for us.

Not worth the price
The other traveler’s should know is the private trip is way too expensive, my honest opinion… is not worth paying MORE THAN $1000 there’s no excitement like the bus tour where you enjoy the journey with others and more organised the only convenient of private tour is the hotel pick up… other than that private tour is a bit depressing,
Bus tour is the way to go …we have soo much fun in our last tour with bus and most of all way cheaper than private.
We learned our lesson in a very expensive way,
I would like to say thank you to our Driver Yoshimura San and I would give 4 stars just because he is nice man.

Nara & About at our Discretion - very hot day - but rewarding!
Yoshi’s English is new - about 1 year - and so some of our questions he simply did not understand, but his spirit and enthusiasm and what he did explain were very welcomed. We enjoyed our time with him.

Excellent Kyoto & Nara tour with Ben
My daughter & I had an excellent day tour of Kyoto & Nara with Ben.
Ben showed us the best of these areas and made the day special and memorable. His English is very good and we learnt a lot about Japanese life, culture, language and the food (he took us to a fantastic restaurant where we ate Soba noodles amongst local people.). We simply could not have seen and experienced what we did in one day without Ben’s help. It is clear that he loves his job and wants to share his love of Japan with others. Thank you Ben for a wonderful day!

Good overview of Kyoto and Nara
This tour covered so much culture in Kyoto. We got to see temples, shrines the bamboo forest and Nara. Bong was our tour guide and he was so knowledgeable and very fun. The van we rode in was super comfortable and we stopped for lunch and had the most delicious soba. Definitely recommend!

Wonderful day trip to Nara and Kyoto
We had Yoshimura as our private tour guide and he was amazing. He picked us up at our hotel and walked us around every spot in Nara and Kyoto for the day. We learned so much at every location we went to. He even took us to a wonderful place for lunch. I highly recommend Yoshi as a tour guide!
