We had a really nice time with Taiga, he walked at our pace and gave us lots of insights and tips about Japan.

After arriving a bit late to our meeting point, Kenya was gracious, understanding, and kind. We were exhausted after a long day of travel, so he seamlessly adjusted the itinerary while still providing a great amount of sightseeing and education. The highlight of the night was a traditional Kyoto dinner with a surprise dish to celebrate a birthday in the group. He even helped us get a taxi back to the Ryokan and stayed with the group until it arrived. It was a great evening made excellent thanks to Kenya.

This was our first trip to Kyoto and Japan and we only had a couple of days to see Kyoto. So we knew we needed a local tour guide to make the most efficient use of our time. We usually don't like overly structured tours with rigid schedules because we often have more interest in some sites than others. So this tour was perfect. Mia delivered a tour with the perfect mix of education and fun and allowed us to spend more time at the sites where we had the most interest. She showed us the perfect mix of "bucket list" sites and "hidden gems," and shared impressive knowledge on history, architecture, food, and culture of the city and Japan. My teenage son and daughter are always hard to impress, and they loved her. They were also sad she wasn't able to eat dinner with us after the tour.
