Hiroko was an amazing guide! She was personable, knowledgeable, and incredibly sweet. She took lots of pictures for us and showed us a variety of sites in the area. She even helped us make a reservation for dinner after the tour and walked us to the restaurant. Overall a WONDERFUL experience and would highly recommend!
