Laura
Kyoto Guide
“My family and I really enjoyed our tour with Laura. We had so many questions and were full of excitement and Laura’s knowledge and comprehensive narrative were impressive. Kyoto has so much to offer and we were blown away by the beauty of the city and the history behind it. Highly recommended!“
– Zlatka

Shaye
Kyoto Guide
“Shaye was awesome! It was so helpful having someone to take us around to different spots in Kyoto. It saved us so much time and allowed us to get more background on the locations. Shaye and I also traded skin care tips and I left Japan with several of her product recommendations.”
– Ana E.

Leon
Tokyo Guide
“Our Tokyo tour with Leon was absolutely fantastic! His guidance led us through the city’s old and new aspects, imparting valuable skills like purchasing subway tickets and suggesting additional trips. Beyond all this, what we liked most was Leon himself: he’s friendly and really funny, he knows a lot about Japanese culture and traditions.”
– Camilla L.

Firas
Tokyo Guide
“Firas, our fantastic tour guide […] was super flexible […] We did not regret it one bit, he truly made this tour feel more personal and heartfelt! This was not just a tour but a once in a lifetime adventure/journey with Firas!! We are so lucky we got to have Firas as our guide. Extremely knowledgable!”
