our tour guide was Kaz Yoshida. Kaz was amazing. He took us to the agreed places and he was very thoughtful about leaving us near our hotel.

Amazing day in Kobe with Yoshiko. Awesome Kobe steak lunch and visit to sake brewery and beautiful imperial shrine. Yoshiko was so informative and friendly. Would give 10 stars if I could

We had a lovely day thanks to the thoughtfulness of our guide and our driver. The driver organised the trips to ensure we avoided crowds where we could, and our guide was informative and friendly. This was an efficient and effective way to cover several places in one day. The temples we visited were glorious and we thoroughly recommend taking time out to visit Gion as well. Additionally, Tripadvisor/Viator and Japan Awaits were communicative and professional in all our dealings, and we will choose them over other travel companies on our next visit.
