Great way to explore Kyoto
Dan_V, Jan 2023
This was a great way to see the sights in Kyoto we were most interested in. Our guide (Reo) asked ahead of time what we wanted to see, he then made a custom itinerary based on our interests. He made navigating the city easy and stress free (we were especially concerned coming from Osaka). He spoke English well and was very friendly.
Response from Host, Jan 2023
Thank you so much for your joining! In Kyoto there are thousands of temples and shrines, so it's difficult for tourists to select the best places durning the short visit. I'm very happy to hear the places and the itinerary we customized are enjoyable for you, also enjoying the local food. I also had a great time with you and your friendly family! Please come again to Osaka and Kyoto areas and I'm looking forward to seeing you. Thank you very much, Arigatou! Reo
