About local Nabeel
3 March 2025

Nabeel is a very knowledgeable, kind and intelligent guide. He help tie together the historical events that lead up to August 6th which drew an unsettling comparison to todays events. It was a very somber, emotional day which Nabeel did present the argument for hope in the future. Thank you

About local Sheilina

Wonderful sunny day in Yokohama

I've been to Japan a couple of times before and wanted to see and experience something new and sheilina created a wonderful day itinerary in Yokohama. Patiently waiting until my interrupted train got me to the right location and introducing me to exceptional food... I had a wonderful day and look forward to returning for more adventures.

Amazing Food Tour in Osaka

Hiromi was an excellent guide around Osaka! She not only brought us to some very delicious food spots, but she was very knowledgeable about the history of the food. Also, she was very nice, and me and my partner had a great time chatting with her. ありがとうございます!
