“ Highlights of Kyoto ”

Hiro is such a knowledgeable, friendly, and fun tour guide! We had one day to spend on our trip to Kyoto and asked him to show us 4 amazing sights. It was a very fast paced walking tour, but it met our expectations and more! We were able to see so many great sights and Hiro explained to us the history and significance of each place. We would highly recommend Hiro! He speaks English well, is quite humorous, and made our one-day trip a success!

Hiroshi:

Dear Hanna I am grateful to you for your great reviews on Jan 14 one day tour in Kyoto. I feel so happy to know that you and your husband seemed to have a pleasant day trip in one of the most charming cities in Japan, Kyoto ! I wish you were able to encounter with a Geiko san or a Maiko san walking in the streets in Gion district. Best regards Hiroshi Y.

“ Had a great day with Hiroshi! ”

We spent the day touring some of Kyoto's sites with HIroshi. He was at our hotel on time. Super nice man! He spoke of the history of the area. Really enjoyed our time with him.

Hiroshi:

Dear Jane Thank you for your compliment on Dec 29 one day tour in Kyoto. I was amazed to know that all of you were so tough walkers ! I guided all of you to the sites where you need to walk a long distance such as Fushimi- Inari Shrine , Kiyomizu-saka to San-nen saka and to Ninen saka to Maruyama park to Yasaka jinjya shrine and take a walk in Kawaramachi street to a Chinese restaurant ! Walking in the long distance is a good way to stay fit. Best regards Hiroshi Y.

“ Wonderful day ”

Hiroshi was a fantastic guide for our first visit of Kyoto. Thanks to him, we discovered a beautiful city with a great story and culture. We had a full day of visits, we were quite tired after all these km walking but Hiro seemed to be flying haha! He took many photos of us in front of the key spots, that was really nice. He is a really fun and knowledgeable person, perfect to get a great taste of Kyoto.
