Kenya was a kind and informed guide. We appreciated the historical and cultural context he provided. He accommodated our requests and had great coffee recommendations. English was excellent. We would seek his guidance again.

Very knowledgeable, but tells you just enough so you can enjoy the walk. Avoided crowds, took great pictures. Strong English speaker.

Kenya was very informative. Explained Kyoto city and customs very well. He took this time to make sure we were ready to move on to next place. We definitely learned a lot how Kyoto is. We definitely would recommend Kenya to an of our friends and family. Thank you Kenya for the great experience.
