Akari was very personable and spoke excellent English. She gave me a nice lay of the land on my first day here which gave me confidence for my next 2 days exploring Kanazawa. I wanted and received great tips in our 2 hours together.

Fukuoka Private & Personalized Introductory Tour with a Local

Unfortunately, just prior to our tour, we went to pick up our train tickets since our train was shortly after our walking tour was to end. We were unable to get them, even though I had my card and PIN number. Yuko spoke to the agent at the window AND an agent on the phone. She was so helpful. We got a late start, but ended up seeing a good bit of the area. Yuko was a great guide OUT of the train station also.

Private Kobe Tour with a Local, Highlights & Hidden Gems 100% Personalised

Had a WONDERFUL time with Ryota doing a private tour! So easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. Started the day at the port. Highly recommend going up the Kōbe port tower for amazing views. Then on to china town for some shopping and food and to wrap it up, he took us to a BEAUTIFUL Japanese zen garden which was especially amazing since the leaves were changing. Thanks Ryota!

We had a really wonderful time with Akari, knowledgeable and engaging. She matched her pace to our group, and took time to answer our questions.

What a wonderful tour.Max covered so much territory. The time flew by. He was able to manage history, customs, food, and humor. I hope you get the pleasure of touring with Max

Review from Clarence

It was sharing time with a friend in a new city.

Review from June

Our guide Eiko did a wonderful job explaining enough ( but not too much) about the places we visited and helped us understand where to locate things in Kyoto Station. Our visit to Sanjusangen-do was amazing.

Review from Jordan

Ryota was so easy to talk to which made the entire tour so much fun. He took us to great locations and then at the end helped us get to another spot we wanted to see. We had such perfect day!

Ryan is extremely knowledgeable and personable. He knows Osaka well from having lived here for at least 15 years.

Private Kobe Tour with a Local, Highlights & Hidden Gems 100% Personalised

This was a terrific experience with my wife. My family has a remote nineteenth century connection with Kobe and has always been of interest. \"Max\" was able to tailor the day to our interests. It was a very unseasonably warm autumn day and the broad brimmed hat was essential. There\'s not a not of tree cover.
