We have a great time with our handsome, patient guide, Adam. He did not rush us through the trip. He kept assuring us that we can stop for photo taking or need time to rest. He was our photographer too. Another trainee guide, Kikko who went with us to the trip was entertaining (he sang a few notes now and then; understand he was a performer). He offered to carry our lunch packed from supermarket before the trip. He will definitely be an excellent guide in future.

this tour was really great. it is somewhat of a long ride via bus and train to get there but having the guide to navigate it eliminated all the stress. we absolutely loved the tour if katsuo-ji temple in december. the weather was perfect. the grounds are maintained beautifully. our guide joel knew tons of interesting info about the temple as well as japan in general. he let us really take our time to enjoy and was able to keep both me and my young adult sons engaged throughout. he had us stop at a grocery store on our way to get food for lunch which was both economical and yummy. we ate at a spot outdoors with a beautiful view. we then walked a long path to see minoh falls and a very old and lovely shinto shrine. this was a great outdoor day with lots of walking that got us out into the mountain countryside for a change of pace from our other urban activities.
