Kalid, my tour guide was excellent. I did realize this was a walking tour, and I have some mobility issues. He was able to suggest an itinerary that met my needs. It was beyond my expectations. The rickshaw through the bamboo forest was such a joy.

Taku was a wonderful guide. He took us to many places in Kyoto that were off the beaten path. He took many pictures which we wanted. It was a fun day. We got to see a lot.
