Sui was nice and communicated well on WhatsApp. This is a good option if you do not want the hassle of commuting, especially if you have a young child or an elderly person in your group, just like we did. They also provided a car seat for our toddler.

The trip was very fun, we've really this trip. Our tour guide Allen is an expect at teaching us the history of the each places we've visited. He imparted us with knowledge about each of the places and taught us some trivias about Japan. He made it very fun, he made funny jokes, taught us some trade-offs of activities, and recommended which food to try. He's very honest too when it comes to his commendations. Ofcourse, he taught us the proper manners when visting each places and how to properly act inside the temple.

It was such an honor and a great experience. Definitely worth the money. We had fun as Ai was such an excellent guide. She provided nuances between Maiko and Geiko, correcting the preconceived notions given by the movie, Memoirs of a Geisha, and being an excellent interpreter. Umemai-san, the maiko that performed for us, was very amazing. For someone so young to be able to perform for us with great confidence and answer all of our questions, she was just superb. Great job for GuideMe Japan Team for arranging this tour!

Bringing children to Japan for summer vacation, there are many places we want to visit, but transportation requires planning, and without a guide, we might not understand anything after a tour. I've never joined a one-day tour or similar travel groups in China, so I tried this with an open mind, and it truly deserves a five-star review! This package is really great and affordable (I never expected something so good to be so cheap). The guide is a very enthusiastic Chinese person with permanent residency in Japan. The entire bus journey was very comfortable, and along the way, the guide shared a lot about the customs and culture of Japan over the many years they've lived there, which was very insightful. Many thanks to guide Wu Shifeng, who was excellent and very professional, with no hidden costs! We visited classic Kyoto landmarks in one day, and the pace was just right! Highly recommended! Everyone, go for it with confidence!

Our tour of Nijo Castle with Naoya was an incredible experience. He was very professional, spoke excellent English, and explained the history of the site in a way that was both clear and engaging. The location itself is breathtaking, and having such a knowledgeable guide made it even more special. Overall, it was a fantastic experience and truly great value for money. Highly recommended!

Un tour davvero interessante che ci ha portato in luoghi a Gion e dintorni che non avremmo trovato da soli! Tommy, la nostra guida turistica, era molto preparato e ha mantenuto il gruppo interessato. Servono scarpe comode per camminare.

Standing before the Great Buddha Hall of Todai-ji Temple, one feels incredibly small. Not physically small, but small in the scale of time. This, the world's largest wooden structure, has stood for over 1,200 years. Inside the hall, the Great Buddha, approximately fifteen meters tall, gazes down upon you with serene eyes. His gaze, having weathered a thousand years of wind and rain, falls upon you. In that moment, all imaginings of "greatness" take on a tangible form. A day in Nara is not just about seeing deer; it is a dialogue with the enduring legacy of the prosperous Tang Dynasty, a silent stand before history itself.

We had a great day exploring Kyoto with Michiko. She was a very kind lady and full of local information. She had a perfect itinerary scheduled and adapted it on the go to fit our needs. We would definitely recommend her and her services to anyone looking to explore Kyoto.
