My favorite tours during my stay in Japan. Akane was a great guide and kept an eye on everything, explaining the information in both English and Spanish and providing us with many important facts about the temples and shrines we saw. He was always very kind and I loved his enthusiasm in wanting to share the culture of Japan.
Nikko in winter!

Really enjoyed my day with Beru in Nikko. BE AWARE that the itinerary changes in the winter months and does not include Kegon waterfall and Chuzengi Lake, even though the tour company lists the waterfall and lake in all reminders. The changes are buried in the tour description and I must have missed them. I am still rating this tour as 5 stars because there was a surprise stop in a different area that was an enjoyable (and delicious) Japanese cultural experience :) Beru was a fantastic tour guide and presented all of the information in both English and Spanish.
It was cool.

This tour was exceptional, very efficient & friendly. Would love to do this again. All the guides (Naomi, jorge, Jo) were amazing, kind and knowledgeable. They made an active effort to tailor experiences and speak to each group member. I will definitely be booking more tours with them. They had a great awareness of Japanese history and culture.
