I’ve lived in Kyoto for 1 years
I speak English, Japanese and some French
I am a Planning and Strategy Specialist
I am a middle-aged Japanese person who loves Kyoto and lives in Gion, Kyoto. I had lived in Tokyo for a long time and moved here because I love the culture and history of Kyoto. I particularly have good knowledge of Japanese sake and have visited many sake breweries in Fushimi, Kyoto. Having had the good experience of holding many times of sake tasting events with the chief brewer of the brewery. Let's enjoy Kyoto's best sake and Japanese cuisine at a hidden traditional townhouse in the backstreet Kyoto. Furthermore, not only visiting traditional shrines and gardens, but visitors could also shop for real antiques such as Japanese prints, crafts, and more at a reasonable price with my negotiation support. Enhance your Kyoto stay and do NOT waste time!!!
Masaya was great and flexible for seeing Kyoto. As someone interested in getting some special photos, he helped me find all the right spots! He had a great knowledge of the city and his facts about cultural and historical landmarks was really helpful to understanding the meaning behind so much in Kyoto.

Great experience. Knowledgeable. With so many tourists in Kyoto, he saved us time by knowing the shortcuts to viewing the major attractions. He helped us find items we wanted to purchase. Planned out and very efficient. Well worth the money. It would have taken us hours more to cover the same ground on our own.
