    Motoko-san was an amazing guide! She became fast friends with my wife and I, and was extremely knowledgeable, and very well prepared. The spots on this this tour are very busy, but she navigated with ease. We were fortunate enough to view during peak fall colors. All the locations were as beautiful as expected. We had plenty of time to search for souvenirs when needed, and enjoy some food along the way. Lunch was great, made by reservation. I wish we had Motoko-san to guide us for our whole stay in Japan? Arigato gozaimasu!

    This e-bike tour of Kyoto was truly incredible. Our guide, Yuta, made the experience unforgettable by tailoring it to our group. At the start, he asked if we were okay with skipping the crowded Golden Pavilion in favor of a more peaceful spot—and we all agreed, which turned out to be a perfect decision.

    We visited a few serene temples, explored a smaller geisha district, enjoyed some amazing mochi, and ended the tour in a stunning zen garden. Yuta was not only knowledgeable but also genuinely kind and funny. He made sure to answer every question and ensured everyone felt comfortable on the e-bikes throughout the journey.

    10/10 experience—I cannot recommend this tour enough!

    Fantastic dinner experience with food I’ve never had before, followed by a bar and cafe for tea and ice cream. Tour guide did a great job and was knowledgeable and fun to talk to.

    We had the BEST time at the Ramen Factory. The class was easy to follow, the staff were super helpful, and we had a great time cooking together as a family! Plus the ramen turned out amazing! Would absolutely recommend anyone visiting Kyoto to try this.

    We had an excellent trip to Kyoto from Osaka with Hazma. We were able to customize the tour. Hazma gave us information about the history of each location and also shared information about lifestyle in Japan.

    We had a great time on this tour. The early time slot helped us avoid the crowds at these tourist locations. Our guide was very knowledgeable and taught us a lot about the history and general Japanese culture.

    I went on this tour with my wife and Mari was such an incredible guide! It was amazing to have her be so knowledgeable about the history and upbringing of Maiko and Geiko, and we left feeling like we truly learned a lot! Great experience walking through the area to see them in person!

    Kazuo knew what he was doing and how to get there fast! He met us at our cruise port and we spent 10 hours exploring with him. We felt we saw so much in the one day we had. He was so kind and knowledgeable. So glad we were paired with him, a Kyoto local foe his whole life.

    Thank you Kazou!!!

    Kazz and our hired driver were outstanding. We only had one short day in Kyoto and they helped us see as much as possible. Kazz knew a lot about the sights and even helped take photos throughout the day. We would absolutely hire him again when we get back to Kyoto!

    The tour was fantastic and we got to experience the beauty and history of Gion. Nobumasa Miyake taught us a lot of the region's history, making each stop memorable and meaningful. I highly recommend taking this tour!
