Noripy was the BEST!!! We are from the US and she was a fantastic guide to Kamakura that was knowledgeable, fun, and so gracious as we navigated our trip. I would highly recommend her for anyone that would like an authentic guide that will make your trip memorable. I am already recommending her to friends visiting in the next few months from the states.
Best time ever

Taka did an excellent job with this tour! He helped us thru the train maze then on to Kamakura! His English is very good, easy for husband with hearing aids to understand. Very knowledgeable about so many things! We had some great conversations with him! The Budda is an amazing sight to see! So worth the trip! And the traditional Japanese lunch was the best! He gave us full instructions on how to eat the delicious lunch! Delivering us back to our hotel after our day was so nice!
Kamakura with Shinji

The day began when Shinji met us at our hotel. We were not at ease with the public transportation system from there to Kamakura so he helped us navigate it for the entire trip. We visited four amazing sites including the Giant Buddha and the Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. He adjusted the pace of the tour to our age and physical limitations. When we requested a traditional Japanese restaurant he found one and we enjoyed a tasty and delicious lunch. At the conclusion of the tour he brought us back to our hotel before returning home himself. We would definitely recommend him to any future travelers to Kamakura.

My travel group was so pleased with our guide, Kenzo! He met us at the Osanbashi cruise terminal in Yokohama and led us to Kamakura using public transportation. His guidance made our journey stress free! We enjoyed visiting Hokokuji Temple - a Zen Buddhist temple, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine, lunch on Komachi Street, and finally the Kotoku-in Temple to see the Great Buddha statue. Then Kenzo escorted us back to the cruise terminal. It was a wonderful day!
