Great tour of Kyoto!
"Ted was an outstanding tour guide. He answered our many questions with much insight. Even on a crowded weekend, Ted took us to places where it was not hectic and they were indeed hidden gems. We saw all the best of Gion district and it was very informative. Ted spoke great English which made our experience very easy. Thank you Ted!"

Tasting and walking around Kyoto
"We had great fun on our “10 tastings” tour with Eiji. He showed us some of the hidden gems of Nishiki market and also which tourist traps to maybe avoid. After the tastings we walked around the Gion district and took in some of the Kyoto highlights as well as some lesser known but arguably even more beautiful corners of the city. We had great fun chatting with Eiji throughout the tour and got to know and see the city from a more nuanced angle. Would highly recommend the tour to someone who wants to get to know the city, is up for a good walk and loves to try out new food experiences!"

Delightful and insightful
"Ted was a wonderful tour guide who gave us the history of Kyoto which I found very interesting. He showed us some of the Gion area and explained how the Geisha and Meikos work, study and live. I found that very fascinating. It was the perfect amount of time and I highly recommend Ted to anyone visiting Kyoto. He also recommended a famous Ramen restaurant at the train station for us that night as we were heading to Tokyo. And it did not disappoint. Best ramen I’ve had! "

Brilliant Kyoto Food Tour
"Eiji was a great tour guide . His English was excellent , he encouraged us to taste foods we would not have tried . He was very informative with our Kyoto questions and recommended different historic sights to explore . He was very flexible with our tour as we had already seen some local sights . We cannot recommend Eiji enough to fulfil your Kyoto experience . "

A bundle of joy with fun facts
"Shohei was very friendly and easy to talk to. We had a lovely tour that helped us understand and see Kyoto in a more knowledgable way than before. I thought I knew quite a bit about Japan, but I learned so many more fun facts, especially about Kyoto and the shrines here. The tour was very fun but it was over too fast (at least it felt that way!). "

A relaxed and informative intro to Kyoto
"We really enjoyed our tour of Kyoto with Shohei, visiting the Gion district and two temples, including the famous Kiyomizu-dera. Shohei is very knowledgeable about the city and its culture and also included lots of fun facts to keep the kids interested. "

Best Your of Our Trip
"Ted (Yoshihiro) was such an amazing guide through Nishiki Market. He was knowledgeable on all the food we ate and was super informative of all the shops we stopped at. He was also very patient when we wanted to stop in other shops/ stores along the way. I cannot recommend him enough for a tour of anything. He is so personable and truly made our trip to Kyoto. I hope to do a tour with him again when I return one day. "

Eiji is the best guide!
"We usually come to Japan and do our own thing but decided to give this tour a shot this time. Eiji was amazing. We had 2 kids with us 6 and 8. He was so great with them. We ended up signing up for 2 tours. 1- we did a food tour at Nishiki Market. He gave us an amazing variety for our family that we all loved. He had connections at the shops that had long lines too so we didn’t have to wait. He always did all the waiting and ordering for us. It was very stress free and he always made a point to show us the open restrooms! We tried foods we wouldn’t have tried on our own and they turned out to be delicious! 2- we also enjoyed a bike tour where the 6 y/o got to enjoy cruising on the back and the 8y/o got to maneuver through traffic. He took us through some beautiful areas that weren’t as crowded and new spots we didn’t pick on previous trips. He was accommodating, pleasant, knowledgeable AND took great pictures of us that we would have missed otherwise. Eiji was fantastic and I would recommend him to any and everyone! "

Review about Shohei
"We had an enjoyable afternoon with Shohei getting a good introduction to Kyoto. He was very patient with our group of four and made several adjustments to accommodate our slow pace due to a broken toe. He even helped us get obtain luggage storage during our tour and helped us catch a cab at the end of the tour. He definitely went above and beyond to adapt to our needs. He shared interesting stories about the history and traditions of Kyoto. "
