    It was a really fun experience and a wonderful and a day very well spent. Thanks to Den the experience and day was even better. She was always polite and very kind. One thing I really enjoy was how she explained the stories and answered all the questions we had.

    Den was an attentive and approachable guide. She took care of the group making sure everyone felt comfortable. She kept her smile despite being under the rain all day long (she lent her umbrella to a group member!)

    Atchan was a very kind and very attentive guide. We have booked a full day trip to Nara and we enjoyed it a lot. She was teaching us things, showing and telling about Japanese culture and locations we visited. She toon care of all the tickets, everything was already included. The only things we bought were deer crackers and some water. We were also lucky with the weather so the experience was just unforgettable. She took care of everyone. I think this fit for families, couples or just someone by themselves too.
