京都のプライベートカスタマイズウォーキングツアー

Sho proved to be a very organized and well informed host for our group. Okay, take the time to explain different sites and even help us to make some reservations. He is a very bright person and it's interesting to engage in a discussion about history with him. I would definitely recommend.

Sho-san is the tour guide to give you a deeper cultural experience of Kyoto that goes beyond sightseeing. He is knowledgeable on a wide variety of topics, artistic and socio- political alike, speaks perfect English and has a great sense of humor. Definitely recommend booking this tour. You won’t regret it.

The guides are quite knowledgeable about the history, martial arts and culture of Japan and Kyoto, so I really enjoy walking around the city talking. Guidebooks show you around hidden temples and shrines, where many people visit Kyoto sightseeing spots, but few have much information.

Sho is very good at explaining and guiding. I love traditional Japanese culture and Zen, and this time I wanted to learn more about Japanese swords, so I asked him about it. He kindly organized a sword-focused tour for us in Kyoto. We around 4 places. He was excellent at explaining katana, history, religion, temples, and shrines. Everything was easy to understand and very interesting. It really made me think, and I was able to deepen my understanding and motivation to study more. It was a very meaningful experience for both me and my daughter. After tour, she said, “I was so happy!” We made wonderful memories. Honestly, thank you so much.

Sho is a very knowledgeable guide; he explained to me some very interesting things about the places we visited and showed me some hidden gems. I highly recommend it, especially if you want to delve into the history of Japan.

Amazing guide who taught us so much about Kyoto! Our whole family enjoyed the private tour and the guide amazingly customised our tour even when the wheather was a bit weak. Saw and experienced everything we wanted and even more! Definitely recommend Bumi Tours.

All the way from Uganda, I was overjoyed at visiting Kyoto, and a day with Bumi Tours was one that I'll never forget! I booked a private walking tour of Shoseien Garden with Sho, and it was pure magic. He explained the Japanese designs of the garden, how the rock, water, and plants work in harmony so enthusiastically and it reminded me of oral stories back home. We skirted around crowded spots, and Sho took amazing pics with plenty of atmosphere reflecting the peaceful site. He speaks perfect English and added hilarious comparative anecdotes, including samurai legends and our Ugandan warriors. The tour was as intimate as if we'd been rambling about with an inside friend who knows Kyoto better than the back of his hand. For a memorable day, go with Bumi Tours - 5 stars from me!

We met Sho (of Bumi Tours) in a subway station where we were lost, and he graciously helped us out (perfect english). We subsequently booked a walking tour of Kyoto with him, and he was great, and very flexible, allowing us to achieve all our objectives for the day. Itinerary is attached a pic...he took the roll of the photographer for my wife & daughter's Kimono shoot, and we were really happy with the outcome. We enjoyed his company and insight so much, we invited him out to dinner with us in the evening. Thanks again Sho. We would highly recommend him!

Absolutely incredible experience! Sho was the perfect guide for our tour of Kyoto. His deep knowledge of the city's history, culture, and hidden gems truly brought the experience to life. He was friendly, engaging, and went out of his way to ensure everyone in our group had a memorable time. His attention to detail, storytelling, and passion for Kyoto made this tour unforgettable. Highly recommend Sho to anyone visiting Kyoto – 5 stars all the way!

We did a private tour with Sho and he was amazing! He was very knowledgeable, knew where all the good spots were and took us to the great spots before they got over crowded. The most important thing to me was he was willing to take our photo everywhere we went so we could have great memories. We would definitely go on another tour with him if we are ever back in Japan in the Kyoto area.
