5.00Ichi-san was amazing! He knew so much about the Kobe and Osaka. He also was very flexible because my parents didn’t speak English so he took his time and allow me to translate. My parents had an amazing time. It was a seamless experience. I would highly recommended!! The walking and train was not as bad as I thought due to my dad’s age but he could keep up. Also highly recommend the Kobe beef lunch worth every penny!
Exceptional day seeing the sights

5.00Kaori was the best guide! She is so nice, knowledgeable and took us to wonderful places. We were picked up at the Osaka port and she took us by trains (including bullet train) to Kyoto where we were greeted by our driver/van. The rickshaw ride thru the bamboo forest was unbelievable as was the Golden Triangle. Having lunch at a conveyor belt sushi place was so unique and special. Saw fun things in the afternoon as well and made it back to port in plenty of time. I would highly recommend this company and in particular Kaori.
excellent tour and...

5.00I had the pleasure of exploring Kobe with Kaori and it was truly an unforgettable experience. From the moment we met, she was incredibly warm, knowledgeable, and passionate about sharing the beauty of Kobe and Japan. One of the highlights was, of course, the food! We enjoyed one of the best meals of our lives - Kobe beef. If you’re visiting Kobe and want a top-notch tour experience, I highly recommend booking with Kaori. Thank you for an incredible day in Kobe!

5.00We had a wonderful day touring Kobe with our guide, Kaori. She took us through a walking tour of the city and the port area, then after a delicious lunch, to the hills via cable car. Her local knowledge of the city was insightful and made it a memorable day for us. Ohkini, Kaori
The Kobe Herb Garden is a must-see.

5.00Our family had an excellent time with Akie. She gave us an easy way to maneuver Kobe in a day from our hotel to the herb garden via Rope Way. She reserved a delicious Kobe lunch for us. That was amazing. We highly recommend the restaurant as well. Went to Harberland which my boys had time to play with the claw machine. Summertime in Japan is very hot and humid, a refreshing cooling feel on the feet was one of the extra perks that everyone enjoyed. Akie - she is THE BEST! She gave both parents & children to enjoy. WE ARE SO HAPPY TO EXPLORE THIS PART OF JAPAN. If we have a chance to come back, we would love to come back again. Worth the time & exploration more.
