Exceptionally Well Customized Tour
Diana F,Apr 29, 2026

5.00One of best person to person tours that I have enjoyed. The company kept us informed about meeting place, costs, stops, and expectations. By having a guide, we did not worry about the transactions and transportation issues. Yoshi was prompt, made contact early in the process to choose stops and work on our time schedule. Yoshi was engaging, informative, humorous, and very kind when we asked to stop for pictures or to find a geocache. He encapsulated Japan's history on our walk. This made walking enjoyable and meaningful to better understand Japan. All the stops brought more introspection into Japanese cultural. We highly recommend Yoshi as your next guide.
