Reuben_R, Jun 2026

The best way to get...

The best way to get acquainted with places you visit is to take a food tour. But what is even more important is to have a knowledgeable and engaging guide with a great personality. That describes Anna our Osaka ichiban yoi guide. Get to know the culture and the food the fun and easy way. Highly recommended.

Fun way to explore Nara!

This tour was amazing! It was an absolute pleasure to have Josh as our guide, he was sociable, kind and very knowledgeable. Nara is a beautiful part of Japan and this tour was a great way to explore it, see its sights and learn its history! Highly recommend!

Osaka Kickstart: Hotspots & Hidden Gems Tour

Mark_J, Jun 2026

This was a nice...

This was a nice introduction to Osaka. Our guide Josh, an American who has lived in Osaka for many years, led our family on the 5 hour walk (with a few subway trips to/from the castle) and gave us choices of what to see and at what pace. (There was a lot of walking involved as this is a walking tour but we are used to it). Josh shared a lot of the history of Osaka and the areas we visited. He also shared much about the culture of the area. At the end of the tour, he gave us lists of good restaurants he recommends for us to consider. We are very thankful for the experience.

Full Day Tour of Kyoto with Private Transportation

Danielle_G, May 2026

We had a wonderful day...

We had a wonderful day exploring Kyoto with Yoshi. We were able to see so much in a single day and visit several of the city's most iconic sights. Yoshi was friendly, professional, and made the day easy and enjoyable. Having transportation arranged for us allowed us to make the most of our time, and we definitely would not have been able to cover as much ground on our own. If you're looking for a convenient way to see many of Kyoto's highlights in one day, this tour is a great option.

Osaka Street Food Tour: 17 Dishes at 4 Local Eateries

Jessica_B, May 2026

One of the best things we did in Osaka

We were so surprised at how well-planned this trip was. Meals were preselected with options for people who avoid certain foods, seats were saved for us when we got there and we got to try a pretty wide variety of food special to the region. We really loved the part of town we went through, much different from the city area we’d been in. Our guide, Niko was a young Japanese/New Zealander so it was really helpful having someone truly fluent in both languages. He was really friendly and more than happy to take our pictures as well! Great tour, one of our favorite things we did in Osaka!

Osaka/Kyoto: Arashiyama, Fushimi Inari & Nara Park Day Trip

Jake_W, May 2026

Amy is amazing!!

This was a fantastic experience! It started with lots of communication from Amy on where, when and how to get to where you need to be. She put a lot of effort into coordinating everything and making sure everyone got as great of experience as possible! Going to all the sights was super fun and we knew of all the right places to be. Nara park was by far the most favourite of mine. Just watch out for some of the naughty deer, they will get you, hahahaha!

Hiroshima & Miyajima 1 Day Bus Tour with Bullet Train Tickets

Charlton_G, May 2026

Highly recommend!

I had a wonderful experience touring Hiroshima and Miyajima with Chickako as our guide. She was extremely accommodating, informative, and made the entire day both enjoyable and meaningful. Her knowledge of the history, culture, and significance of the sites we visited added so much depth to the experience and helped bring each location to life. Chickako also did an excellent job ensuring we had sufficient time at each stop, allowing us to fully take in the beauty and importance of Hiroshima and Miyajima without ever feeling rushed. She was patient, organized, and always willing to answer questions and provide helpful insights along the way. Her friendly personality and professionalism made the tour especially memorable. I highly recommend Chickako to anyone looking for an engaging and well-paced tour experience in Hiroshima and Miyajima!

Full Day Hiroshima and Miyajima Tour by Bullet Train from Osaka

Pamela_C, Apr 2026

Wonderful guide

Our guide was wonderful. Showed us the train system - didn’t work as we still got lost but not her fault. Visited the shrines on our list and she was so informative and interestingly. It was a long tiring day but worth it and she stopped regularly for drinks and lunch. Particularly loved the wee cafe she stopped at in the afternoon for tea and cake. All costs included which was a surprise.
