Tom was great at helping me find pottery and the potters on Koh Kret Island. He has a wealth of knowledge to share along the way about Thai customs and people. We happily took different modes of travel through the city. He was especially able to answer my many questions about Buddhism, Buddhist customs and the differences with and overlap among Hindu and Animism beliefs so prevalent in Bangkok. Finally he was able to help me find vegetarian food when so much of the cuisine is meat-based. I enjoyed the day!

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.

Thanks to my local guide, Ack I felt safe in this bustling metropolis that can be intimidating for those who don’t speak or understand Japanese. Ack expertly navigated the city and its various public transportation systems with ease. He made sure I got to see everything on my list.

We had a lovely time with Tiana visiting Kyoto. She was really knowledgeable and was great catching the interest of the kids with many details about shrines, temples and also life in Japan in general. It was really a great guided tour.
