Thoughtful tour with excellent support and service
The experience and tour were excellent allowing us to customize according to our desires. The customer service was very flexible and accommodated a late change in reservation due to an error in booking. The guide, Kei, was thoughtful in taking us to the shrines and temples and explaining the history and cultural significance of each. This was a very positive cultural experience and I would recommend it to you.

Thank you for your nice review. I was amazed that you had already researched Kyoto's geography in detail and appreciate that you told me where you wanted to visit. All of these places are along just one street, Higashi-yama Street, so it helped me make the iteneray easily and we were able to visit them efficeintely. I enjoyed guiding you, walking along Philosopher's Pass and chatting about various topics. I appreciate your kindness during the tour.

Amazing!
This was one of the best travel experiences I’ve ever had, and that’s entirely thanks to our incredible guide, Hiroko.
From the very start, Hiroko made the day feel efficient and genuinely special. Every stop was perfectly timed, every route thoughtfully planned, and we avoided crowds while still hitting the most iconic, photogenic spots. I walked away with incredible photos that I'll cherish forever.
Kyoto is stunning on its own, but experiencing it like this elevated everything to another level. A can't miss!

Excellent!!!
We booked this tour as part of our honeymoon trip to Kyoto, and we’re so glad we did as it covered everything we wanted to see! No worrying about what train to get or directions to get there, we could just take in all the sights. Yoshii our guide was brilliant, so knowledgable and friendly, we really enjoyed getting to know him during our tour. Yoshii was also on hand to take some fantastic photos of us which was super helpful! Thank you so much Yoshii! 10/10 tour :)

Kyoto highlights
We enjoyed visiting the Fushimi Inari Shrine, Arashiyama Bamboo Forest, Golden Temple, and shopping/eating at the Gion District.
事業者からの返答
Thank you for your nice review for me. I appreciate your kindness and great cooperation during the tour. I couldn’t spend so much time in Gion District since we had run out of time at the entrance of Gion. I hope you could enjoy walking around the area and I’m sure the tour this time will be a good starting point for your children to learn foreign cultures.
Thank you again,
Kazuo Sumi

100% satisfied with our guide.
As this was our first trip to Kyoto we needed a lot of help with planning our day. Satoko was brilliant! We corresponded beforehand and she provided a schedule for us covering as many sights as she possibly could, suggesting how we could make the most of our visit. She is very knowledgeable of history and had plenty of interesting facts at each location. Her English is impeccable.
I doubt that we would have seen so much without her expertise.
Thank you for a wonderful experience.

Dear My guests,
Thank you so much for your message. I am very glad to hear from you again. Did you enjoy the dinner after we parted? I hope that you safely went back to your country and shared your memory in Japan with your family.
I also enjoyed the tour with you. Both of you were very kind to me. It was my first to attend my guests to Fushii Inari Shrine at night time. I was also fascinated with the beautiful scenery there. I took your picture in the One Thousand Torii Gates which was lit up.
If you or your acquaintance have an opportunity to come to Japan, I am willing to show you around.
Please take care of yourselves.
Have a nice day!
Sincerely,
Satoko

Our Kyoto Tour was great with Mr Tanaka
We have been with many tours and Mr Tanaka was simply the best. He made our Kyoto trip memorable and we enjoyed not just the view but with his company as well. A definitely 5 🌟 rating. Arigatou, Tanaka-san. - Justin

Thank you very much for your very positive remarks on my guiding I made
for you and your family here the other day or an early New Year’s Day.
It is a great honor and delight for a guide to hear via the agent involved
such a warm-hearted nice comment on his performance.
Wishing you all the best while hoping to see you again anytime, anywhere.
Sincerely yours
