Wonderful tour of the Temples and surrounding area. He made a fun scavenger hunt for the kid which they loved. He really made the experience more rich and interesting.

What a great day! Yumi our guide was incredible. She was well versed in the history and spoke wonderful English. She was also very intuitive, pivoting the tour when we were hot or perhaps had scene enough temples and changed to some beautiful nature scenery. Nikko itself was amazing and worth the day trip out of Tokyo. We took the high speed train too and from Shinjuku and it was quick and easy. The temples are unreal, huge and elaborate.
