Hiromi was a fantastic guide. She listened to our interests and provided the perfect tour experience for us. She expertly gave us information on our sites and took us around the city.

Hiro, my guide, was very kind and considerate throughout the trip. I was able to veto anything I didn't want to do and change plans on the fly if I wanted. He made sure to give me an excellent experience of Kobe, from taking a cable car up the mountains, to finding an excellent Kobe Steak place to eat at, to ending on a small cruise outside of Kobe port. An excellent representative.

Decided to visit Kobe as part of my winter / Christmas break. The tour had us visiting a shrine, as well as older foreign residences, before stopping off for a delightful beef lunch and ending with a Nihon-shu tasting session. My guide, Taiga, was very knowledgeable on a range of topics, as well as being a fun, warm and friendly individual. Thanks for a fun afternoon, Taiga and I look forward to joining you for fishing and other future journeys!
