Hugo is a highly creative and talented guide that we enjoyed both getting to know and learning a lot about Kyoto and Japanese culture. We highly recommend him to others!

We worked with CityUnscripted to create an 8 hour tour from Kobe to Kyoto and it was great. Our tour guide, Taiga, communicated well in advance to be sure he had some idea of what we wanted to do and see, met us on time, guided us from our cruise ship to the high speed train, and then through the subway system in Kyoto. We saw many highlights of the City (six hours clearly is not enough to "do it all") and then Taiga made sure we got back to Kobe well in time for our "all aboard". Taiga picked out a very good - but not crowded - local Japanese restaurant in Kyoto (and explained the menu). He was courteous, sensitive to our needs, well versed in the City, and assured that we had a great tour. Highly recommend CityUnscripted for their tours in Japan.

Taiga met us at our ship and took complete care of us for the day. He made the day completely care-free and took care to accommodate our requests and preferences. Without his assistance the day could have been frustrating with finding our way, buying tickets, and knowing what to do. We had an exciting ride on the Shinkansen, a walk in the bamboo forest, visits to 2 shines, and shopping. Taiga even helped one of us reading glasses in the very busy shopping area. We liked his concern for our comfort and helping us to realize our goals for the day. We would ask for Taiga again in a heartbeat. And by the way, his English is excellent.
