Reviews
I really had a great tour with Ms. Shochan, my tour guide. She is very accommodating and very enriching. I had fun and was able to know more about Nagoya. Thank you. Looking forward to more tours with Ms. Shochan and City Unscripted.
George was the perfect tour guide sharing a rich knowledge on the history of Japan. The tour was customized on my interests.
We arrive earlier in our flight and contacted our tour guide. However, decided to wait up until we were able to check-in with our hotel. Upon arrival, its a bit rainy and had cold weather so our guide decided to tour up with out hotel vicinity and some restaurants nearby. We were not able to tour other spots since mostly are already close. Perhaps, suggest to do this tour a little bit earlier or morning so that you can visit some places.
Anna which is our local tour guide have a lot of experience when it comes to Nagoya life, she brought us to Nagoya Castle, Atsuta-jingu Shrine then Shirotori Garden. During the journey, she also touch on the local famous which we certainly appreciate her sharing. Do note that while she is the perfect local guide but she might not be a historian type of guide that some might expects from travel agency.
This guided tour with Mr.Toshi was a very refreshing and relaxed one.The visit to the castle and the shrine was filled with detailed explanations from our guide along with many more added information about Nagoya city and it’s culture.We are glad to have booked this tour.
Tour guide was punctual. Went to the Nagoya castle and the shrine and finished off the last stop at Osu shopping district. Weather was good and we went around via the subway.
it was a pleasant tour. Takako was pretty nice and helpful especially when I needed a change of footwear due to my luggage not arriving on time in Nagoya. The tour is okay. Although I believe the itinerary could have been better. We went to ossu shopping district - oasis 21 - TV station - shrine near the ossu shopping district (bunny photo) - sakae then that's relatively about it. If you'll do the half day tour would be good to ask for the atsuta shrine if you're not into shopping as much - but overall I'm still glad I got this tour. I was still able to see most of what I've read online that needs to be seen.
My family and I enjoyed the half day city tour. It was unfortunate that the Nagoya castle and Toyota museum were closed that day but still, the guide offerred alternative sight-seeing spots. The tour was capped off with a very good lunch recommended by our guide.
We had a wonderful day! The guide was so friendly and had clearly put a lot of thought into personalising the tour for us, catering to our specific interests. The guide was so good, we are already planning our return to Nagoya. Thank you so much!
I had a fantastic tour with Shochan! She was warm, welcoming, knowledgeable and kind. She speaks perfect English and explained the story and history behind the attraction and details along the way. She’s like a local friend. Highly recommend! 💕
