    Mia was very knowledgeable about all the places of interest she took us and went to great lengths to accommodate our requests. She urged us to try new things for which we are grateful. She also gave us directions and instructions for activities after the guided tour which are very helpful.

    We loved our introduction to Kyoto with Mia! She took our group of 5 on a two hour walking tour through the city and shared the history and insight of Geisha, Kyoto history along with a visit to attractions the beautiful Pontocho Alley, Hanami koji, Yasaka Shrine or Kodai-ji Temple. She was both charming and knowledgeable. Because it was a cold night we even stopped to pick up some hand warmers at a store. Would highly recommend her for a very enjoyable tour of Kyoto!!
