I can't say enough about this tour. Minako met us as we came off the cruise ship in Kobe and escorted us via train to see Nara. She was helpful, pleasant and full of information without trying to bore us with too many details. She seemed to know just how much we wanted to talk without being too intrusive. I felt like I had a relative showing me the city rather than an official tour guide. We fed the deer at Nara park and visited the Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines. Minako even went out of her way to try to find a souvenir mug that my wife was looking for. Anyone visiting Kobe/Osaka/Nara must use All Star Osaka Walk if they want a tour of the area.

Kaori is awesome. We had a wonderful day learning about the history and beauty of Nara. She met us at the cruise ship port in Kobe and had the whole day visit to Nara planned out. We took the train from Kobe to Nara. In Nara park, we bought special deer crackers. See photo of Alan feeding the (very tame) deer. Lunch was included Kaori had booked at a tiny restaurant (only four tables) and ate oone of Nara's specialties - somen (thin) noodles. Kaori came equipped with small Japanese coins that she gave us, several times, to throw into a special place at the shrine and temple so that we could make a prayer (wish). At the end, she bought us all a very tasty baked thing, stuffed with red bean paste. See the picture of the three of us holding them. On the train ride back, we had a chance to talk to her about a whole range of things. It would be great to spend another day with her.
