Denis K, Jun 2019
Warm welcome and gracious hospitality on our recent green tea and Japanese food tour in Uji (Kyoto).
Without their permanent advice and constant attention to detail, we would not have enjoyed ourselves nearly so much during this cultural tour.
Thank for such an enjoyable, as well as profitable, time visiting this great place.
