Otaru 6 horas viagem privada com guia licenciado pelo governo

Our guide Max had planned put the day very thoughtfully taking into account our interests . We enjoyed the day in Otaru with the canal cruise and sakaimachi street being the key highlights . We ended the tour with a quick trip to the last remaining sake factory in otaru . All in all would definitely recommend this day trip with Max

Good experience at Otaru. Got a good sightseeing of Otaru in a day. Very informative

We were very pleased with our 6 hour tour of Kyoto with Yoshi. He spoke very good English and explained well the sites we visited. He took us to a local ramen restaurant for lunch and to a less visited temple not on the tourist radar. He has a very fun personality and he shared stories about his life. He also took good pictures of us. Compared to other guides we had with this company and a different company, we found him superior.

Akira san is a wonderful guide. Very informative. He accomodated our requests to see a shinto temple, Sake factory etc. Akira san shared information about the Meiji revolution which was interesting. Thank you Akira san

My impression is that Otaru is a nice, relatively small seaside town that was once a major seaport for Japan. Our guide, Katsuko Kemanai, was an older very nice Japanese lady who seemed fit for her age (about 80 years). The guide's English language skill was moderately good. Her style was not particularly energetic or entertaining and somewhat business-like. We learned a few facts about the region's historical importance in the fishing and business trades. Too often, our guide would ask, "What would you like to do? It's up to you." Maybe we should have arrived better prepared to express our reasons for visiting Otaru. One of our co-travelers specifically wanted to view cherry blossoms and build a music box; we did both.

We had an outstanding private tour in Otaru with Kazuo Sumi, and it was a great experience. Kazuo was an excellent guide, knowledgeable, personable, and clearly passionate about sharing the history and culture of the area. He thoughtfully took us to all the major highlights, including two of Otaru’s most popular museums, and provided great context that really brought each location to life. One of our favorite stops was lunch at the Sankaku Fish Market, fresh, delicious seafood and an authentic local experience we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. We also enjoyed strolling down Sakaimachi Street, where Kazuo gave us time to shop and explore at a relaxed pace. What really made the tour special, though, was his inclusion of a few lesser-known gems, like visits to historic bank buildings that have been preserved as museum sites, it was fascinating and unique. If you’re visiting Otaru and want a well-rounded, personalized experience, we highly recommend Kazuo Sumi. His attention to detail and warm hospitality made for a memorable day. Thank you again Kazuo!

My guide Akira was excellent. Informative, understanding, patient, and helpful. He tailored the tour to my interests and let me set the pace. He didn't talk too much; rather, he let me ask questions so that he could speak on topics of interest to me. As a first-time visitor to Japan and Otaru, I could have never figured out the logistics and navigated so efficiently through the city. His English was strong and we conversed easily on subject ranging from history to sports to movies. He also translated my interactions with shop owners. Finally, he accomodated my special request to visit a local coffeehouse. A wonderful, memorable experience!

My guide Akira was knowledgeable, kind, patient, and understanding. He didn't talk too much; rather, he let me ask questions so that he only spoke on topics of interest to me. He also allowed me to set the pace, and we covered a lot of ground in six hours, from the fish market to Mt. Tengu to a coffeehouse to even the Don Quijote discount store (at my request). Being a first-time visitor to Japan and Otaru, I could have never figured out how to manage the logistics and cover so much ground so efficiently. He coordinated bus travel and translated for me at shops. He was very conversant in Enlish on a number of subjects ranging from history to movies. A memorable day with a truly expert guide!

Where to start! Kumiko was an absolutely wonderful tour guide, so very friendly and knowledgeable of the city of Otaru! Literally every aspect of the tour was delightful. The King Crab luncheon was absolutely delicious (best crab I've ever eaten), the museums were very interesting, it was quite neat learning about the herring based history of the city. The shopping district came next, and was a bunch of fun to wander through. Here, Kumiko was delightful as she just allowed us visit the stores we wanted to, at no point did she ever seem to rush us, and she even visited a few with us to give us some advice. We finished up at the Tanaka Sake Brewery, and yet again, Kumiko's information was great, having her guide us through the brewing process was very interesting, we got to see some active work being done, then the tasting was AWESOME. All of the different flavor profiles truly made it an experience we will never forget. All in all, wonderful day, wonderful tour, if you get Kumiko, you are going to have a wonderful time!

We visit Otaru because it was a cruise stop. There is no much to see there, but the guide was so professional that she took care of us in order to see all we told her previously we were interested. My congratulations for a person that takes her job with such responsability.
