We had a wonderful afternoon seeing a few sights of Nagasaki with Fauzul our guide. She was extremely accommodating as my girlfriend has mobility issues and as well we requested seeing the beauty of the city as opposed to the tragic history. We started out on foot to climb to a high view point which was wonderful as they had several elevators for us to take to minimize the walking. There was also a beautiful garden up there. Then we travelled by tram to see Spectacles Bridge, Peace Park and ended in Chinatown. We had a great visit and learned a little Japanese along the way. Arigato Fauzul.
Sherilyn was exceptional. She customized my tour to fit interests, trimming and dietary needs. She was so knowledgeable and generous my shared her deep appreciation of Japanese history and culture as we moved from site to site by metro and on foot. I would absolutely hire her again.
Monta delivered one of the best travel experiences we've ever had. As a true Tokyo local, he crafted a perfectly customized private tour that went far beyond the typical tourist trail.
What set Monta apart was his incredible ability to blend iconic highlights with authentic hidden gems that we would never have discovered on our own. He navigated us through charming backstreets, tucked-away shrines, and local eateries serving incredible food, all while sharing insightful stories that brought the city’s history and culture vividly to life.
Warm, engaging, and genuinely passionate about his city, Monta made us feel like we were exploring with a knowledgeable friend rather than just a guide. He tailored every detail to our interests and pace, creating a seamless, enriching day.
If you want a deeply personal, insightful, and memorable Tokyo experience, book Monta without hesitation. He’s the real deal. Highly, highly recommended!

An amazing day with Sherilyn! She created a tour that was perfect for my interests! She was so knowledgeable and generously shared culture and history as we moved from site to site on foot and on the metro. She also made sure to find a restaurant that would serve gluten free food for me. Would absolutely hire her again!!!!
Nisa was a fabulous communicator and planner. She arranged complex personalized schedule to meet our needs of seeing several different attractions in different areas. We would never have been able to accomplish this without her. She was personable and knowledgeable about Kyoto and each site we visited. She interacted great with our large, diverse group of 7 ages 16-55.
Toshi is an experienced local guide. We agreed the places we wanted to go in advance, and had a great time. Toshi was a wonderful source of knowledge and information.
