    Kay Arakawa was our tour guide to take us from Tokyo to Kamakura. It was a 9-5 pm tour. We had so much fun visiting all the main areas and learning about them. He pointed out important information, that otherwise we would missed. Kay is fun, knowledgeable all thing Kamakura, relaxed and a great tour guide. If you want to focus on enjoying the scenery, Kay will take you to all the places you don’t want to miss in Kamakura.

    FABULOUS! I only had a few hours in Istanbul, so I booked a private tour to get a taste of the city. Tim was amazing! My transport forgot about me, so I arrived stressed and late. Tim found me as soon as I excited the car and greeted me so warmly that all of my stress was forgotten. We had a great walk around the city seeing as much as I could in my limited time. I tried several traditional foods and visited several of the key sights. Tim answered every question and his English was perfect. He even showed me a better way to take a selfie! When I return, I'll book him again!
