Amazing experience with Keisuke!
Kei was an incredible guide! He went above and beyond to make sure we saw as much as we could in our timeframe. His knowledge of Japan, Tokyo, and history was extensive. He gave us great perspective on the country and insight into the culture. This was such a perfect way to see sights that we didn't already have planned and to get to know a local. Would do this again in a heartbeat!

Best day in Kyoto
Great day in Kyoto with Yoko. Yoko is an excellent guide and host. She has a lot of knowledge and information she shared about Japanese culture. We enjoyed going to a local restaurant with Yoko and she was very flexible in how long we stayed at sites. We enjoyed taking the train and bus with her. Strongly recommend this tour.

Scott North gave my wife and I an amazing tour of Kyoto. He is so incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and we truly enjoyed our time with him. We would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to learn more about Kyoto and it's rich history...and if Scott is available I would suggest requesting him for this tour. 5 stars!!!

Fantastic 5 star day tour
We had. A fantastic, 5 star full day tour with Shazoma as our guide. He’s very personable, extremely knowledgeable and speaks fluent English without any accent (we’ve had guides who were hard to understand). We customized the suggested itinerary as we had already visited some of the aread and along with Shazoma’s suggestion and we saw and learned a lot. We wished we could have had him for our next day’s tour.

Daily Day in Hiroshima
We had a wonderful day with Sebastian. He was very detailed with our itinerary and although we experienced a very wet rainy day, we didn’t miss any of the wonderful sites of Hiroshima. Sebastian was great at working us throughout the crowds and adjusting our schedule to make it work the best for us.

Tokyo with David - great experience
David was our guide and driver. He was prompt, easy going, very knowledgeable and flexible, listening to our ideas of places to visit and making great recommendations. He gave us time to walk in the gardens and on the streets to experience Tokyo in person. And his lunch recommendation was perfect for our group. I highly recommend David as a guide. His English is excellent as well.

Ten ten exprience
Yuuki was a wonderful and thoughtful guide. He showed us many great restaurants to try on our tour. He also spent time to send us a list of food to try on our trip.
He made sure we were comfortable using the train system so we would be comfortable and successful on our trip.
Would highly recommend him again. If you are ever in MN you have our number !

A great day of touring Kyoto with guide Yoshi!
This was such a wonderful introduction to Kyoto. It was our first visit to Japan, and we really appreciated Yoshi's warm welcome, extensive knowledge, and cheerful attitude. He helped us navigate trains, buses, and unfamiliar streets to make the best use of our time together. It rained on our tour day, and he adjusted as we went along to help us stay comfortable and have the best experience.

Best way to see Tokyo as first timers
We had a wonderful tour of Tokyo with our guide Kazuna. We had told her that this was our first time in Tokyo and we're traveling with our 88 year old mother. She created a fantastic itinerary and dealt with figuring out all of the trains to get us around. She was thoughtful of our mom's experience. Definitely worth every cent.

5 hour Osaka Tour
We had an absolutely fantastic experience on the Osaka Kickstart: Hotspots & Hidden Gems tour today. Our guide, James, was exceptional, knowledgeable, engaging, and genuinely passionate about Osaka’s history and culture. He brought every location to life with stories and insights we would never have discovered on our own.
What really stood out was how welcoming and personable James was. He made the whole group feel comfortable straight away. By the end, it honestly felt like we were exploring the city with a friend rather than a guide.
A perfect introduction to Osaka, blending must-see sights with hidden gems. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting!

Day 1 Japan Meiji Shrine, Shibuya
Miho was an amazing tour guide. She was able to give us a history lesson along with seeing the great sights of Japan. We chose 3 locations and she researched them for us. Taking this tour day one of our trip made getting around the subway system so much better as Miho showed us what to do. Old recommend this tour 100%. Ask for Miho!

Kyoto 4 hr guided tour
My tour guide Umi was excellent! She contacted me several times prior to the tour to arrange sites to visit. I was interested in quieter spots in Tokyo that hoards of tourists don’t typically go to. I gave a few suggestions and she gave excellent suggestions too. The tour was well paced and I didn’t feel rushed at all. Umi was very knowledgable and kind!
