Amazing day!
We had such a wonderful time with Sebastian. He had so much knowledge about each stop and created the best schedule to avoid the crowds and make the best use of the time. The meals we had were really special and highlighted local ingredients for super reasonable prices. I would highly recommend him as a guide.

Friendly & professional guide !
We’re a group of 3 people and Maha guided us through Kyoto and the must to see sites for a one-day visit. Maha is very friendly, professional and knows very well the town and the Japanese culture. We enjoyed being with her and learning more about Japan. Thus, she gave us advice about our trip and good places where to go eating. We highly recommend her services. We all speak French and Maha speaks perfectly our language.

Eiji is Awesome!!!
We've had an unforgettable day exploring Kyoto with Eiji as our guide. He designed a custom tour packed with incredible sightseeing and delicious food stops, making our experience truly special. Eiji’s knowledge of the city and its history added so much depth to each place we visited. Over the course of our 8-hour adventure, he often stood in long lines to buy food for us, allowing us time to rest – a thoughtful gesture that really made a difference.
Eiji also took photos of us throughout the tour with his own camera and later shared them via Google Drive, giving us beautiful memories to look back on. Beyond being a fantastic guide, Eiji was a friendly and enjoyable person to be around, making the day even better. If you want to experience Kyoto’s culture, sights, and flavors through the eyes of a true local, we highly recommend booking with Eiji!

Great one-day highlights tour of Kyoto
Eiji provided a really good introduction to the city. We had arrived only the day before, so even something as simple as changing modes of transport as we wound our way around the city, was helpful for the rest of the trip. So too were all the cultural tips, and Eiji went out of his way to find lunch for us in - at our request - a 'proper ramen bar, the sort where working local people go'; we were the only tourists there, and loved it. He also, having learned of my love for Ghibli films, went out of his way to take us to the Ghibli store in the Gion area. We're both extremely well travelled, but Kyoto would be close to the tops of both of our lists, and Eiji's enlivened guidance really helped with this.
