    Ryan did a great job on our tour. He was on time and we navigated the train to Kyoto from our cruise ship. We had a limited timeframe since we had to get back to the ship but Ryan made the most of it. He was extremely knowledgeable.

    Being able to see some of the must-see attractions in Kyoto when doing a shore excursion from Kobe is great and involves expertise in riding trains and subways. Our guide Michelle was fantastic, she made it look easy, was able to make adjustments when needed. She was very friendly and had good knowledge of the sites we visited. She was also expense conscious. We truly made the most of our limited time in Kyoto. We highly recommend Michelle as a guide.

    Kalid arrived early and got us started with the observation deck of our hotel which was included with the tour. He was flexible, communicated the history of the city and all sites visited with candid honesty, personal relevance and great respect for the Japanese democracy, culture and way of life. Our tour was action packed with information from beginning to end, with information delivered at a pace we were willing to consume it and relevant to the sites we visited. I highly recommend Kalid, as someone who can relate to the information curious tourist as myself are seaking, and now a resident who has educated himself on the history of Japan! Kalid, thanks for the excellent job you did today! All of the personal touches you added to today's tour, were invaluable!

    Somehow he toned it that we made it to the special clock to see it at noon.
