Our tour with Masaya deserves a five-star rating for several reasons. His personalized approach made the 7- hour tour truly special. He demonstrated extensive knowledge about the places we visited and communicated fluently in perfect English, enhancing our overall experience.

We had an absolutely amazing time. The tour was six hours, and Alex showed us a lot of Kyoto, both the things that you "have" to see and some places off the beaten path. He gave us a lot of tips for the rest of our stay in Japan (not just for Kyoto), and helped us figure out the public transportation system. Overall, an amazing experience, we can definitely recommend Alex! :)

Walking through the city with Hiroyuki was like strolling through one's favourite city with a good acquaintance. He had put together a very good route with several wonderful surprises off the beaten tourist track, while also taking individual wishes into account. Besides his knowledge of the history and also the cultural and political development of the country, he also knew exactly where to find local art and food. And as the icing on the cake, you get a very good photographer, so that in the photos it looks as if you had the Arashiyama bamboo forest all to yourself :-). Thank you very much, it was a really wonderful day.
