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.

Amir

Tokyo Guide
“We had a wonderful time exploring Tokyo with our guide Amir. He was a very friendly and knowledgeable guide who is passionate about Tokyo and Japan. Amir created a perfect itinerary for us as first-time visitors to Japan and took the time to answer all of our questions. We got to see very unique and interesting parts of the city that we never would’ve found on our own. I would highly recommend this experience!”

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.”
