  Our tour was pretty amazing. Ryu is super fun and an entertaining guy. We laughed a lot and he made little adjustments along the way. We saw amazing views. We ate a a nice local ramen spot Rei Rei Tei which was Delicious! Having a private tour is the way to go and do it with Ryu. He is too funny.

  Ryu was an outstanding guide. He customized our tour from our hotel in Osaka, in 8 hours we visited Nara, Todaiji temple, Arashiyama (Bamboo Forest), and Golden Temple. Also had a superb vegan ramen lunch that Ryu suggested in Arashiyama. Ryu was flexible, easy-going, knowledgeable, and fun! Thank you Ryu for a most memorable tour!

  We had an incredible one day tour of Kyoto and Nara, all thanks to our amazing guide, Ryu. He was incredibly easygoing, attentive, and patient throughout the entire day. Ryu is highly knowledgeable and shared fascinating insights at every stop. In just one day, we saw the friendly deer at Nara Park, visited the breathtaking Todai-ji temple, and explored the key historic sites in Kyoto. To top it all off, Ryu took us to a delicious local spot for lunch.If you want a seamless, informative, and highly enjoyable tour, we cannot recommend Ryu enough!

• Wow. Wow. Wow.

  Ryu was an absolutely incredible guide in Kyoto. From start to finish, he went above and beyond to make the experience unforgettable. He was knowledgeable, thoughtful, patient, and genuinely passionate about showing us the best of the city. What really stood out was how much effort he put into making everything feel personal and seamless. He did not just guide me around Kyoto, he made the whole day feel special. His recommendations, stories, attention to detail, and overall energy were amazing. Ryu is a complete legend. I could not recommend him more highly to anyone visiting Kyoto. If you are lucky enough to have him as your guide, you are in for an incredible experience. I've been in japan for 10 days now, have used 3 tour agencies, and this was BY FAR the best day I've had.

• Great day with Ryu!

  I had an absolutely fantastic excursion with Ryu, and it was easily one of the best tour experiences I've ever had. The journey took us through some of Japan’s most iconic and breathtaking destinations, including Kinkaku-ji, Arashiyama, the Bamboo Forest, a traditional Rickshaw experience, Nara Park, Todai-ji Temple, Dotonbori, and Shinsekai. Every location was stunning, rich in history, and truly unforgettable. The scenery throughout the day was spectacular, and each stop offered a unique glimpse into Japan’s culture, heritage, and beauty. What made the experience even more special was our guide Ryu. His knowledge and passion for the history and significance of each location were exceptional. The information was communicated clearly, thoroughly, and in a way that made it easy to absorb and appreciate the historical elements of every place visited. Ryu was punctual, professional, polite, and attentive from start to finish. He genuinely listened to my needs, accommodated requests, and made sure I was comfortable and enjoying myself every step of the way. The places visited are truly experiences that everyone should see at least once in their lifetime when visiting Japan.
