Great Tour of Kyoto
Cali was an exceptional guide throughout our Kyoto Top Four Highlights Day Trip. From the moment we met, she set a warm, welcoming tone and made the entire experience feel effortless and enjoyable.
What stood out most was Cali’s deep knowledge of Kyoto’s history and culture. At every stop from the iconic Fushimi Inari Taisha to the other major highlights she shared, context, and insights that brought each place to life. Her explanations were clear, engaging, and never rushed.
Cali also had a great sense of timing. She knew the best photo spots, helped us avoid crowds, and made sure everyone in the group felt comfortable and included. Her friendly personality and genuine passion for guiding made the day feel special.
Overall, Cali turned a beautiful itinerary into an unforgettable experience. I highly recommend her to anyone visiting she truly cares about giving guests a memorable day.

Amazing geisha experience
This was much more than we expected. Not only did we witness a geisha Dancing, but we had an opportunity to get a close and personal by asking questions to the guy and having her answer them. This was so intimate and informative and so much better than seeing just a dance. We also had a chance to play a game with her that she typically plays at a tea house. I totally recommend this experience over anything else that you would see.

An Unforgettable Tour with an Amazing Guide, Dhanu!
We had the absolute best experience with our tour guide, Dhanu! He was extremely knowledgeable, informative, and took the time to answer every question we had throughout the day. He made us feel comfortable from the very beginning and shared so much interesting information about the places we visited, which made the entire experience even more meaningful.
Dhanu was friendly, patient, and genuinely seemed to care about making sure we had a wonderful time. He never made the tour feel rushed and made the whole experience fun and enjoyable for our family. Having such a great guide truly made a difference and turned an already amazing tour into one of the highlights of our trip to Japan.
We are so grateful for the experience and would absolutely recommend Dhanu to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, personable, and outstanding tour guide. Thank you, Dhanu, for helping make such wonderful memories for our family!

What an amazing...
What an amazing experience! The staff was very friendly and polite, you get a history lesson, a zen lesson, you get to hold a 650 year old sword and you get to meet a modern time samurai! He had an incredible presence and really encourages everyone to do a good job during the actual cutting. We loved every second of this tour. I would love to do it again.

A fantastic experience...
A fantastic experience discovering a lesser-known, non-touristy area in northern Osaka, away from the usual tourist routes. Our guide was fantastic: energetic, friendly, and incredibly engaging. She gave us explanations that were clear, useful, and easy to follow, without ever making the tour feel overwhelming. A great way to discover a more authentic and local side of Osaka. Highly recommended!

Great Matcha
Best part was Matcha making experience in Uji. That was in a historical 400 years old shop. We all loved it. Our guide was very energetic and kept us involved in the experience throughout. Her accent was little difficult to understand but otherwise every was awesome about this trip.

Highlights of Kyoto
Our Guide was very well organized and knowledgeable of the aights we visited. He kept us informed and gave us the option to visit the sights on our own. The driver of the bus was also very kind and helpful. The Lunch that we had included in the tour is highly recommended to get a flavor of local cuisine.

The sites and the food were the best!!
You will love this tour and the food was fabulous!! Our meeting point was super simple to get to (we took a local train and when we exited the stun, we were there!). As we waited for other tourists, Terumi, our guide, shared the history of the theater we were standing in front of and the different actors on the stage announcements. As we got started, she explained the sightseeing position of the tour and that we’d follow up with two places to eat dinner. The history of the geisha is fantastic and our Terumi explained the difference between an apprentice and geisha. From the history of Goin and the shrines and temples, the tour was fabulous. The restaurants were places that locals go to and it was so cool to not be in mainstream locations. The food was fabulous and we finished the you’re very full! This was an excellent tour and we recommend it for anyone visiting Kyoto!

Amazing day trip
Amanohashidate is a must do with family. It was by far the most fun we’ve had in Kyoto so far. Yes it takes 2 hours to get there and back, but there was plenty of time to explore. Jay, our guide, was both hilarious and knowledgeable. He made the trip even more memorable for us with his wit. Highly recommend this getaway to singles and to families. The chairlift ride is a must-do and the highlight of the excursion.

Amazing sake tour!
It was a great experience! Our tour guide Yuki was very friendly and informative. We were very late but she waited patiently for us to reach and caught us up! She gave lots of information about the tour and even general things about Kyoto and Japan! I was recommend this to everyone!

Wonderful local guide and host!
J was such a kind, thoughtful and fun guide! Being from Kyoto he provided great history and shared his favorite spots. He handled everything with such care and couldn’t be happier! We topped the evening off with a memorable karaoke duet! It was a such a wonderful time. Thank you, J!
