My reviews

    Miki was SO GREAT at listening to how I wanted our trip to go: focus on cultural aspects, history, being flexible to what we wanted the day of. She was warm, funny, welcoming. She also offered to take pictures of us which was super helpful. She also figured out how to incorporate breaks through our tour since it was so hot outside. Be communicative with your guide up front so they can help cater this tour to your needs, and you'll love it. Travel tip: Bring an UV umbrella to help protect you from the blazing sun. Highly recommend this tour for Kyoto if you want something that fits your pace and travel style.
