Sake Tasting with Hiroman and Mami
This was such a fun sake tasting tour! Hiroman and Mami were amazing tour guides with so much knowledge. Hiroman told us all about the sake making process and the current culture. Mami was in training but she also provided a lot of information and answered our questions about Japan. The sake tasting locations were all amazing and informative. Hiroman even bought a bottle of sake to bring with us on the tour, and we would stop in between tastings to drink sake on a bench nearby. After lots of sake, Hiroman and Mami walked us to the train station and made sure that we knew where we were going next.

We went to the Engyoji...
We went to the Engyoji Temple where they filmed the Last Samurai. We were basically the only visitors there, so it was very peaceful as I had imagined. Our guide was very knowledgeable. We then went back to Kobe and had the best Kobe beef at Mouriya Lin. Some of us proceeded to walk back to the ship through the shopping streets. and the others were taken back by car. It was a most enjoyable day!

You can do it all with the right guide
Ryan was an outstanding guide and made the entire day feel effortless. He connected with us right away, kept everything organized without rushing, and shared just the right amount of insight at each stop.
He also took us to a fantastic restaurant for lunch that we never would have found on our own. The Shinkansen from Kobe to Kyoto was a highlight in itself, and Ryan made sure we experienced it the right way.
We covered a lot in Kyoto without it ever feeling overwhelming, which really speaks to how well he managed the day. If you have the chance to tour with him, take it.

Leave it to the locals
We left our day in our guide, Ryan's capable hands. When he suggested a visit to a herb garden, we were somewhat sceptical, but WOW, it was fantastic and totally unexpected. A real hidden gem. After exploring the Nunobiki Herb Gardens we made our way through Kitano with their well preserved merchant homes. And no visit to Kobe would be complete without sampling their beef. Ryan took us to an area known only to locals, where we had lunch. The Ikuta Shrine was a touch of serenity before hitting Chinatown and the end of our walking tour.

Fantastic Tour
7 of us spent an amazing day with Ahmed in Kyoto. Prior to the trip communication was excellent and on the day our driver was right there when we got off the boat. Ahmed was so knowledgable about everywhere we visited, took great photos of our group and knew exactly where to take us to avoid crowds where possible. I cannot recommend this tour enough it was absolutely five star. Thank you Ahmed !

Kobe excursion tour
Michelle was an amazing tour guide during our stop in Kobe. Since it was our first time there and we had limited time at port, we really appreciated how much she was able to show us in such a short amount of time.
We did a walking tour that also included riding the subway, which gave us a great feel for the city and how locals get around. Michelle made everything easy and stress-free while still fitting so much into our day.
She introduced us to local candies, Kobe beef, and ice cream, all of which were amazing and made the experience even more memorable. It felt like we were able to experience a great mix of the local culture and food in just a few hours.
Michelle was friendly, knowledgeable, and organized, and we are so glad we got to spend our time in Kobe with her. I would definitely recommend her to anyone visiting Kobe for the first time!

The best day out EVER!
Zack was super at communicating before our trip and he was very reliable, appearing exactly on time at the cruise port. Zack had a nice clean car with plenty of space.
Nothing was too much trouble for him.
He provided water and traditional treats for our journey. He helped us to navigate the sushi menu at a lovely traditional restaurant. He is a lovely guy, with a well thought out itinerary incorporating all of our preferences and some great suggestions of his own. His command of the English language is exceptional. Out group highly recommends him! Thank you Zack for a very memorable day.

Kyoto Full Day Custom Tour-Thank you.
Our Kyoto full day tour was wonderful. Our tour operator, Ahmed was extremely responsive, even last minute, and tailored the day to meet our needs and wants. Our tour guide, Kazz and driver were punctual, and extremely knowledgeable. We would never have been able to see as many sights in Kyoto without them and Kazz took so many photos of us, we will remember this day for a long time. Kyoto is a beautiful city and we are extremely grateful that we were able to get an insiders view of all its beauty. Thank you Ahmed, for putting together an amazing and wonderful day for us.

Great Tour of Kyoto’s Highlights
This was a great tour in a great city that has so many unique sites and photo opportunities. Our tour guide met us at the Arashiyama Bamboo Grove early in the morning and luckily before the wave of tourists arrived shortly after. We then visited 3 UNESCO World Heritage Sites scattered around Kyoto (Kinkaku-ji Golden Pavilion, the Kiyomizu-dera temple, and the Fushimi Inari-taisha shrine. Our tour guide Keiko was terrific and was very understanding when we asked to cut short one or two site visits due to the extreme heat. We got to see so much in a limited 8-hour stop.

We had a great time with...
We had a great time with Sumile! We ended up with a private tour with her. She picked us up right at the cruise terminal and guided us via train, walking, taxi, and local bus/trolley throughout the city. Good walking shoes and plenty of water were a must. The Kobe beef lunch was the perfect ending after working up an appetite walking and seeing the sites. We had great conversations with Sumile and even had the opportunity to chat with a 29th generation Shinto priest who heard us discussing the religion. Quite the memorable adventure!
