Kahori was a sweet tour guide for our day trip to Kamakura. She was on time and walk us through the tour. We really enjoyed her.

Tatsuki was wonderful. We told him what our interests were and he put together a perfectly curated tour. He speaks very clear English so is easy to understand as well. He found us a very nice traditional Japanese restaurant for lunch. We finished off the afternoon tour with a Japanese whiskey tasting that was fantastic! We would recommend him to everyone. Thank you Tatsuki .

We spent the day in Kamakura with our guide, Suzuki. He was very knowledgeable and efficient so we manage to see everything on the itinerary, which we collaborated on before the tour. His English was excellent and he was very pleasant. We would highly recommend him.

Our guide Suzuki was very knowledgeable and efficient. We set up our itinerary in advance based on his recommended route and our input. We spent a great six hours together!

Our day with Sami in Kamakura was wonderful! She is a top-notch guide who is kind and considerate. Sami took into account the need for fewer stairs and planned accordingly. She sent us ideas ahead of time and also information. This was so appreciated. Sami met us right on time and looked after us the whole day. She recommended a great place to go for lunch which we really enjoyed. Sami is a historian at heart and knowledgeable about places and people. We would definitely recommend Japan Guide Agency and absolutely Sami as your guide!

Andy picked us up from the hotel and took us on a private tour at the best price ever. We are both 80 years active. He talked us through tour options and we came up with our plan. Andy picked us up at our hotel and delivered us back. He filled us in with Japanese culture, historic information, and food (lunch was delicious and we invited him to join us). We took the trains and buses, mixed with the locals (much better than a car tour). We now have a new friend in Andy.

Yusuke met us at the pier promptly. He was professional, charming, and extremely knowledgeable about all things Japan regarding the history and culture of its people. We traveled by bus and train and taxi to see how the city works and has access to its wonderful sites. We even got to have a local sushi lunch. Our day spent with Yusuke as our guide was well worth the price of this excursion. Thank you again Yusuke.

Great trip from Yokohama to Kamakura with guides Ken and Shun who took us by trains, and gave a very good commentary about the big Buddha and then showed us around Yokohama on our return.

Enjoyable tour from Yokohama to Kamakura led by guides Ken and Shun, who accompanied us all the way by 3 trains and explained the history well. Apart from the Buddha, they also spent some time showing us Yokohama.

Kiyo San was an excellent guide who lives in the Kamakura area and knows it very well. She kept our walking interesting by providing comments along the way regarding what we were seeing and passing. She has a very good knowledge of local and Japanese history to help understand how events impacted the Kamakura area. It was a busy, fun day and the time flew by!
