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!

We had a 6 hours tour of all the main attractions in Tokyo. Lauren added significant value and background. My wife and i had an excellent time.

Hiroki met us at our dock and decided, based on our timeline, that rather than taking the train, we should go by car. This allowed us a lot more flexibility in the trip and we saw more sites and we would’ve been able to see otherwise. We saw two temples inside the city, a couple different marketplaces and one temple outside the city. Hiroki was kind enough to drive us to the bullet train station, show us how to get tickets, and write a note that we could give to the taxi driver to make sure that we got back to our ship.
