Unforgettable Mt. Fuji Experience with Erik! 🗻❤️
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Unforgettable Mt. Fuji Tour with Erik!
Our trip to Mt. Fuji was truly one of the most amazing experiences of our entire visit to Japan, and a huge part of that was because of our wonderful guide, Erik!
From the beginning to the end, Erik was absolutely fantastic. He was kind, friendly, patient, professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about making sure we had the best experience possible. He made us feel comfortable and welcome from the very first moment.
The views of Mt. Fuji were breathtaking, but what made the day even more special was the way Erik guided us through the experience. He shared interesting information, helped us enjoy every stop without feeling rushed, and made the entire day fun and memorable. Traveling with my son, I especially appreciated how attentive and thoughtful he was with both of us.
You can tell that Erik doesn't simply do this as a job — he truly wants his guests to have an incredible experience and leave Japan with beautiful memories. And that is exactly what he gave us. ❤️🇯🇵🗻
If you are planning a Mt. Fuji tour, ask for Erik! I cannot recommend him highly enough. He is the kind of guide you remember long after your vacation is over.
Thank you, Erik, for giving us such a special day and memories that my son and I will treasure forever. This was truly a highlight of our trip to Japan! 10/10 — absolutely recommended! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐Unforgettable Mt. Fuji Experience with Erik! 🗻❤️

Our tour guide, Sweeny,...
Our tour guide, Sweeny, was exceptional. Lots of energy, helpful and knowledgeable. The bus is comfortable with AC. The stops we made were gorgeous. The lunch was tasty. Sweeny has great insider tips too- like where to get the best ice cream. Overall, great experience.

Nikko Day tour with Mai
A wonderful day tour to Nikko! Mai, or tour guide provided fantastic information about all the sights and also gave us a Japanese history lesson on the bus - really enjoyable! We saw another side of Japan - away from the hustle and bustle of the city - that was truly beautiful and peaceful! Thanks Mai!

Exceptional and Seamless Kyoto Experience!
If you are looking for an incredible, stress-free introduction to Kyoto, I cannot recommend Kaeko Tanigawa highly enough!
From the very beginning, Kaeko’s organization was flawless. She met me right on the Shinkansen platform at Kyoto Station exactly as planned, completely taking the guesswork out of navigating a busy transit hub.
In just four hours, we managed to see three of Kyoto's absolute icons—Nijo Castle, the breathtaking Kinkakuji Temple (Golden Pavilion), and Fushimi Inari Shrine. Despite covering so much ground, the pace never felt rushed. Kaeko expertly navigated Kyoto’s city subways and buses, making the transit between sites feel smooth and effortless. Her knowledge and insights brought the history of each location to life.
She perfectly timed the tour to end at Fushimi Inari Shrine, giving me clear, easy directions on how to take the 5-minute JR line back to Kyoto Station. This allowed me to explore the magical thousands of red Torii gates at my own leisure as the evening set in.
Kaeko is professional, incredibly kind, organized, and a wonderful guide.
Thank you, Kaeko, for an unforgettable day in Kyoto!

Best tour if you are heading to Hiroshima
This trip was absolutely exceptional. Hiroshima memorial is a must see of course. But adding the island trip to the tour we truly balancing. Do not miss the two for one experience. We stayed in Hiroshima for two nights. But we also saw people who came in by the bullet train in the morning and left in the evening.

Wonderful tour - highly recommend
Great tour, very informative of the places visited, well paced and very enjoyable experience. The lunch option was a lovely touch and can highly recommend. Wonderful guide and driver. Our guide was very knowledgeable, throughout the tour they imparted gems of information in connection with each of the sites we visited so that we were really able to get the most out of each location, great sense of humour, led the day very professionally and looked after all. Highly recommend.

Incredible experience
This was an absolutely incredible experience! Alissa was our guide, and she was knowledgeable, accommodating, and truly what made the excursion special. From the temple to the monkeys, every aspect was well thought out, and there wasn’t a question that went unanswered. She even translated for us so we could speak directly with the snow monkey park ranger to ask him questions. We truly appreciate all the work the guides put in to preparing for these events, and I would recommend this trip to everyone.

Nikko!
Melody (guide) and Kurokawa-San (driver) we the dynamic duo for this adventure! This was a large group and Melody was available and very tentative to this multi lingual group. She constantly made herself available and mingled so everyone was taken care of. She knocked this tour out of the park and it was so much fun! Recommendations were great (and delicious!) and it was a wonderful experience! Both Melody and Kurokawa-San deserve a raise! Don’t miss an opportunity to join this tour!

I had a great time on...
I had a great time on this tour with Kuroda as the guide. He provided information on the bus in Japanese and English. He was both professional and funny! There was sufficient time to explore each own on our own. Lunch was excellent. Gokayama was a hidden gem that shouldn’t be missed!

Miyajima Experience
Excellent tour. Hiroshi Tsuji is a wonderful guide. He walked us through the Miyajima shrine explaining what we saw and what it meant. Thanks to Hiroshi, we got to try the local "fast food", Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki for lunch. Amazing!
Wonderful day in Miyajima. Thanks, Hiroshi.

Naoko is an amazing ambassador!
Naoko (Noah) was wonderful! Very communicative; she gave so many options to customize the experience! She was in constant contact to ensure we met up on time and in the correct location. Showed us so many wonderful sights of the area, and even though the weather was terrible, and we had to pivot our plans a few times, we still had a great experience. Highly recommend her services!

Our Day In Kochi
Mihoko was a delight from the beginning, she was easy to communicate with while making our plans for the tour. She was prompt meeting us and was a wonderful guide because she was very knowledgeable about Kochi. She was accommodating when we kept changing our plans. We were a group of six people and we all give her 5 stars. Thank you Mihoko for a great day.
