Milo was an excellent guide. He did a great job of connecting the historical context of what we were seeing with modern references. Highly recommend.

Milo was a great tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and took us to some great spots. He was also flexible which was greatly appreciated since I was dealing with intense back pain. We really enjoyed spending the afternoon with him and learned a lot. He spoke very good English as well. We would highly recommend using Milo to anyone

We had one day in Kyoto and Milo planned a day that really made the most of the time we had. We learned so much about the history of the city and Milo’s enthusiasm and in depth knowledge, including the best lunch stops and photo spots made for a day to remember.

We had an amazing walking tour with Milo throughout Kyoto. He was a wealth of information about Kyoto history and culture. Our tour was fast-paced, and we saw parts of the city we would have not found on our own. It was a great overview of everything Kyoto has to offer.
