"My wife and I took the 2 hour tour together with Shohei. He is easy going and fun while also informative. We learned how Buddhism and Shinto affected Japanese culture and how that can be seen today while walking the streets of Kyoto. At the same time Shohei took the time to show us trivial things like how shopkeepers keep dogs from "doing their business" around the stores. He also recommended a lot of places and restaurants for us to visit after the tour. This tour improved our experience of Kyoto tenfold. After leaving Kyoto we determined that it was one of the highlights of the trip and well worth it. So glad we booked it!"

"Eiji was fun and informative. He was also adaptable and took us to a few less touristy spots that ended up being our favourites. I should have had him plan the entire two days in the end. "

"With Ryuki as our knowledgeable guide, we had an amazing introduction to Kyoto. Our first day in the city. He shared with us interesting tales of Kyotos past and present. His English is good and he pays attention to interests of his guests. We highly recommend him. He gave us suggestions of what else to see during our stay and good restaurant recommendations"

"We only had 3 hours in Kyoto but the tour was the optimum mix of highlights and information, On top of it it was funny and shohei was able to explain the Japanese culture so well,being Japanese himself "

"Ryuki was so fun and knowledgeable. He took us places we wouldn’t have seen in Kyoto and had us try food we never would have thought to order on our own. Yummy! Definitely a must do. Yuki is the best!"

"I did a 6-hour tour with Naoki which he customized for me and the tour was outstanding! Naoki is knowledgable, fun and interesting. His English is also very good. I would book with him again! "

"10/10! Simone, ic we come back visiting Japan we would like to Book you again for sure! Thank you for the wonderful day. "

"If you’re expecting a tour guide, Shohei will pleasantly surprise you — because spending the day with him feels nothing like a tour. It feels like exploring Kyoto with a brilliant, hilarious friend who knows everything about it. Shohei took us through Nijo Castle, the Golden Pavilion, and Kiyomizudera with the kind of depth and storytelling that made each site come alive rather than blur together. His knowledge is impressive, but it’s his warmth and humor that set this experience apart. We laughed the entire day. The highlight we didn’t expect: lunch in his local neighborhood. No tourist traps — just great food. This was the best day of our trip to Japan. Book with Shohei, you won't be disappointed. "

"We loved doing our 3h tour of some beautiful gems of Kyoto with our guide Shohei last week! This was our first time visiting and despite the rain, we had a wonderful time! Shohei showed us beautiful Temples and Shrines just a short walk from Gion area. Our favorite was sitting to appreciate the beautiful zen garden. Shohei’s explanation about the difference between shrines and Temples and the different Buddhist temples was useful for understanding our visits in other parts of Japan. Our kids also loved the experience at a nice matcha place. Thank you Shohei for showing us a bit of your beautiful city! We will definitely come back! "

"Shohei was a great host! We had to adjust our schedule a bit and he was very flexible. We were able to see and enjoy three temples and learn a lot about their history and purpose. I would highly recommend!"
