    Fun guide, open to suggestions for a custom tour, highly flexible, and friendly. I recommend this tour and guide.

    Great day in Kobe

    Mark_R, Oct 2025
    You can customize to suit your needs. We had a Sake brewery tour, great Kobe beef lunch (which is extra) and finished with Arima Onsen. Yayoi was fantastic all day!

    WalkJapan

    Phyllis_K, Oct 2025
    I had a fabulous walking tour with Yoshi. He took some things I wanted to see and added some of his own thoughts which made a perfect tour. I learned so much about Japanese traditions and just everyday things. I highly recommend Yoshi and this tour.

    Kanako perfect guide

    KANAKO planned my walking tour to exactly what I wanted to do and my limitations. She’s a great asset to the business. So I give her five stars.
