Fantastic day with Yusuke! This is everything you would want from a tour: friendly, knowledgeable, charismatic, and so personable. He went above and beyond from the cold drinks he had in his vehicle for us to an extra spot he wanted to show us. Would highly recommend this experience!
Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I was also really happy that you chose to book my tour when I didn’t have any reviews yet. It really meant a lot to me. I really had such a great time with you guys too. I especially enjoyed talking about our cultures and having lunch together at one of my favorite restaurants. Seeing you enjoy your time in Nagasaki made me love being a guide even more. It was such a great day for me too. I really hope we can meet again someday. And if I ever go to Canada, I’ll definitely let you know! Thank you again, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Japan!
