Milo was an outstanding, knowledgeable, and upbeat guide. He was very communicative, punctual, and he even gave us tips for the rest of our trip. Highly recommend!

Milo was superb! This man sure knows his history, and he is gifted in his ability to share his knowledge in a way that is both captivating and interesting. Even my teenage boys were paying close attention to him, and they never got bored (which says a lot for teenagers on a historical tour). Milo effortlessly guided us throughout Kyoto, and picked the perfect places for us to enjoy. When we return, we will seek him out to be our tour guide every time!

Absolutely wonderful experience. My guide Milos was amazing. Great Personality, extremely knowledgeable and passionate about Kyoto. He was able to take me “off the beaten path” where there were no crowds. I interacted and dined at a tiny counter in someone’s home. Just an overall wonderful way to see the city at an economical price point. Will recommend for sure.
