Our five hour trip was interesting and informative. We came away from it feeling that we had seen the essence of Kyoto and in a very short time had a much better understanding of this lovely city. Our guide, Alvin, was excellent.

Our guide Olan was so friendly and knowledgeable, there wasn’t a question he couldn’t answer! He helped us plan the day beforehand to make the most of the day and even told us the best way to travel to Kyoto from Osaka. Highly recommended.

We were so delighted with our day with Olan, there wasn’t a question he couldn’t answer. He was so knowledgeable!! He was happy to accommodate all of our requests and he was flexible whilst we were on our tour. I would have no hesitation in recommending Olan. A great guide and a lovely person.

Ada was wonderful. She e-mailed before tour to give me some background on her and ask if we had anything specific to see or do. She made our day in Kyoto quite memorable around the bamboo forest, local shrines and temples, parks and sights. We learn interesting and knowledgeable history, culture, language, customs and traditional of her adopted homeland. Highly recommend her!!!
