KOSUKE MURAOKA was our guide and very pleasant and knowledgeable guide very easy going and nothing was to much
Alina is very nice, explained things and culture of the location very thoroughly and used language very easily to understand and patiently. Highly recommended.
Both of the them Kosuke n Alina was very nice n knowledgeable!! We have a 7 years old girl was with us , Alina was so good to her
Kosuke and Akina were very patient and kind with my family!! They stayed with my mother when she couldn’t walk up the stairs and played with my daughter when she was bored. They looked for my aunt when she wandered off. They knew a lot about the history, temples, and shrines. We learned a lot. They gave recommendations for where to find jeans, skin care item, and where to visit next. They were really great!!
Kosuke and Akina were wonderful tour guides and hosts —- knowledgeable, flexible, patient and kind — especially with our 7-year old and older guests. Highly recommended!
Takuma is a very excellent tour guide and photographer. He is passionate about Giesha culture and Kyoto in general. One of the best guides we’ve ever met. He can help your iPhone pics look truly professional. Highly highly recommend
Really enjoyed the Shinto Shrine!
Takuma was amazing. A super class of Japanese culture. He is polite and has a lot of knowledge about everything we saw..
I highly recommend booking a private tour with Nori-san! He kindly guided me through the beautiful Otagi Nenbutsuji Templ eand shared the history and cultural background of the area. He also walked with me through the bamboo forest and, without me even asking, offered to take photos to capture the experience — which was incredibly sweet and thoughtful. It was a truly personal, one-on-one experience, and I felt very well taken care of throughout the tour. Nori-san speaks both Spanish and English, and we had a lot of fun practicing both languages together. I highly, highly recommend his tour services. And Nori-san — if I come back to Japan, I will definitely reach out to you again! Thank you Nori-San.
We so enjoyed our private tour with 4 of us and our guide Nori, a local resident of Kyoto with a deep knowledge of Kyoto and Japan. He took us to hidden gems in Kyoto as well as avoiding the over populated tourist areas. These included a very large bamboo forest in the city, quiet streets in old Kyoto and a wonderful temple that was magnificent. We walked or took the train and he ensured we made it back to the bullet train for our ride back to Kobe to meet our cruise ship. If you prefer avoiding crowds as much as possible in crowded Kyoto this tour is for you!
