Reviews of Our Kobe Experiences

Silver did an amazing job of showing us the perfect day, even though it started out with a horrible rain storm. Our favorite part of the day was the herb gardens which by the time we got there the rain had stopped. We had a wonderful leisurely experience there with no crowds. We had a great lunch at his favorite local restaurant and he made my sister very happy by finding her a family store that specialized in homemade rice crackers. Her suitcase home was filled with them.

Silva is an exceptional guide and gave us a full experience of Kobe and the six of us achieved everything we asked for. We had a real mix of activities including a trip to the 2nd largest suspension bridge in the world! The tour was amazing and that night we sailed under it on our way to the next destination. Thank you for a fantastic day Silva, and he also took some super photos of the group as an added bonus!

Silva provided us with a varied and interesting day in Kobe and we achieved everything we wanted. His knowledge and explanations were easy to follow and the surprises like the train trip to the bridge, we later sailed under, was an added bonus!

City Unscripted set us up with Angelica. She was just lovely. She shared her Kobe with us and it included everything from the Ikuta Shrine to karaoke. We loved our day and will never forget this experience or Kobe. Thank you Angelica—you were wonderful for our families.

Excellent Tour! We had. Fantastic day at Kobe. Our tour guide “Silva” was great. We looked at all sites in Kobe and enjoyed authentic Kobe beef! It was lot of fun! Having a good tour guide makes a bug difference!
