Yuri contacted us frequently and arranged a reservation for us at a steak restaurant. On the tour we could talk more then about foor alone. About living and working is Japan. The History of Nagasaki. All the small things you normaly as tourist don't get talk about. Special thanks to Yuri for all te wings she did for us.

This was our favorite tour so far! Not only did Yuri take us to the best food spots (I’m still dreaming of the gyoza) but she also shared a lot about the history of Nagasaki. We learned a lot, ate at places we’d never have found on our own, and even got to do a little shopping. I highly recommend a tour with Yuri!

We visited Nagasaki and while everybody was probably focused on the bomb our guide focused on the actual history of the city which was incredible! The best part was he took us to eat at this place where the owner was somebody he met while doing music. And the food was meticulously prepared with care and love... it was the most amazing thing ever! The whole experience is something I would recommend to anybody EVER!

Miki was just fantastic. She was personable, knowledgable, and authentic. She took us around to markets and restaurants that had snacks and meals that were delicious and local. Her English was great - and she was happy to answer any questions we had concerning history of the area, the local customs and culture, and, of course, food!!! She even had painted something special as a birthday gift for our daughter. Would highly recommend - this is a great way to experience Nagasaki!
