    A fantastic tour, very informative, knowledgeable and obliging guide! My husband was sick and couldn’t come on the tour so he brought him some rice porridge and abalone to help him feel better and I had the private tour to myself. He took many commemorative photos for me and provided a large amount of information about the sites.

  • Highly Recommend!
