Taylor was great! I learned a lot about geisha (geiko and maiko)and about the area. Also learned about the differences between shrines vs temples and Shinto vs Buddhist beliefs. The only complaint is that the confirmation email told us to look for a guide with a logo for Japan Guide Star, but the tour operator was holding a sign for Japan Local Tours or something similar--I initially thought that I had missed the group or was in the wrong place.

Wajid was an excellent guide! He provided a lot of information during the tour, and thanks to him, we learned more about the region, temples, shrines, and Geishas. The 4:00 PM start time for the tour was perfect since the streets were less crowded, and we even got to see some Geishas at the end of the tour. The late afternoon lighting is an added bonus. Furthermore, Wajid also gave us a regional guide with restaurant recommendations and tips. We highly recommend this tour!

Highlight of our trip to Kyoto! Learned so much and enjoyed an amazing lunch. Our guide Yuka was so charming and engaging.

Milo was my tour guide and he was fantastic! Very knowledgeable on everything Kyoto and i thoroughly enjoyed listening to him. I also loved how he met me at my hotel. He took me to some lovely souvenir shops and around the Keisha district and out of the hustle and bustle. Overall great experience!

one of the highlights of our visit to Japan. Alex was super friendly and took us to the most beautiful places in Kyoto. definitely worth it and hope to see you again soon! 5 stars *****

This was such a unique tour! Kudos to Allen for the very informative and fun experience. I’d say half of the fun of this tour is because of his stories! I learned so much about the place. Also, Northern Kyoto has its own beauty. I’m grateful that I joined this tour!
