Our Kyoto tour was absolutely wonderful, thanks to our outstanding guide. He was extremely well-mannered, very cooperative, and genuinely friendly, which made the entire experience smooth and enjoyable from the very beginning. He listened carefully to what we wanted to see and made sure every detail was thoughtfully covered.
Not only did he show us all the places on our list, but he also went above and beyond by introducing us to additional spots we wouldn’t have discovered on our own. His knowledge, flexibility, and warm personality truly enhanced our visit to Kyoto. We highly recommend this tour guide to anyone visiting Kyoto—he made our experience unforgettable.adding to that the good restaurants recommendations

The guide was very informative and spoke good English. The timing of the walk was fantastic, being early morning, so there were fewer crowds. We got really good pictures from those places. It was to the point. The transport was via metro and train, so it was very nice, but you need to be ready for a lot of walking. That was not an issue with us. I highly recommend this kind of tour.

During the 7-day 6-night free travel, I specially arranged a day to sign up for a group tour in Kyoto. The main attractions this time were Kinkakuji Temple, Kiyomizu Temple and Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine. The overall itinerary was all the attractions I really wanted to visit. I was super nervous before departure, after all, it was my first time traveling in this way, and I wanted to participate selfishly, but in fact I really felt great. The entire time control and itinerary arrangement were all very appropriate. I would like to thank our tour guide Xiao Fu (Alvin) 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟. During the trip, he explained the history of the attractions in Chinese and English, and shared many recommended restaurants, allowing us to use time quickly and accurately, and he would also remind everyone in the group of the meeting time and place in a timely manner. Our group had a large number of people and we took the bus, but Xiao Fu still cared about everyone's situation, whether there was anything they wanted to eat, etc. He was always willing to help. Especially when my son fell and injured both knees, Xiao Fu immediately went to buy disinfectant and dressings for us. I am really grateful, otherwise we might not be able to have fun. The child felt embarrassed afterwards and wanted to thank this big brother. We returned to Osaka at nearly 6 o'clock and had plenty of time to go shopping. After returning home, everyone felt that they had a fulfilling and happy day.

Easily accessible meeting point (tourist bus parking in front of Kyoto Station - Shinkansen side/Avanti shopping center), precise, efficient and very kind guide, splendid itinerary to visit the main attractions of Kyoto with organization but also a certain flexibility. I highly recommend it.

Hi, We took the e-bike tour with Diego and it was absolutely fantastic. He had very good knowledge and took care to make sure everyone was part of the group. We were a group of 8 and 3 families. He could balance out requirements and made sure we visited all the historic sites. posting some pics from the trip. The cycling was a bit tiring but with the group it could just happen quite seamlessly.. Thanks Diego and Pohan and Team Memory for giving us a lifelong memorable trip. wishing you the very best always!!

the trip is memorable and cover most of the place in kyoto. The only downside for this tour as the itininery os very compact .you will need to take lunch on the go ( in the bus ) if you want to finish all the intinery . Nothing to complaint .The only negative point for this tour is the tour guide didn't have whatsapp and he didnt whatsapp us to confirm the trip . Tip: should skip the bridge and straight go to bamboo forest / skip lunch
