Reviews
Yukari was the best guide of my entire trip to Japan! And the other guide who was learning, Nana, too. I loved the experience. Everything was very well explained. Both of them were very friendly and attentive. I recommend them.
to be honest i expected to find a castle to visit , but there was nothing because there’s only a big and beautiful park . I think you can go by yourself . no need for guide itinerary: no worthy
Good experience, I had a private tour because I was the only one to book the slot. The guide was patient and very interesting.
awesome tour, i 100% recommend it. tatsu was my guide, he was really polite and cool with me and all the group.
Perfect tour, great place and tour guide Nana
the guide was very nice and friendly. she takes to us about our trip. she was able to give basic knowledge about the palace grounds.
This tour was excruciatingly slow, guide did not provide much information more than the posted signs, and ended 20 minutes early. Save your time and self guide.
