What a treat to spend a day with Abigail from Piqtour! Abigail is a very talented photographer who speaks fluent English and Japanese. She took us to three major attractions and despite the intense summer heat and crowds, was able to capture the best moments on camera. Many of the photos were just our family alone which was a remarkable feat given the crowds. I was truly impressed with the final results! Not only does Abigail take amazing photos, she is a delightful person who will give a historical perspective, entertain your kids with trivia, and who knows all the best street foods and souvenir shops. I've already recommended her to friends and family, and we hope to book her again on our next Japan adventure!

Despite the searing heat and humidity, our walking tour of Kyoto was an unforgettable experience. Abigail, our guide, persevered through the challenging weather, ensuring that we didn’t miss the highlights of Kyoto’s cultural heart. This tour was a unique, half-day adventure that took us to three of Kyoto’s most iconic landmarks. What made this experience truly special was that our guide was a professional photographer, helping us to create a personalized visual story of our time in Kyoto. Exploring these amazing sites while learning interesting history and facts, and capturing beautiful photos to cherish, made this tour exceptional. Although the tour is scheduled on a set route and it was a hot day, Abigail made sure we had time to enjoy. Thank you, Abigail, for your dedication and expertise, which made our hot day in Kyoto so memorable

If we returned to Kyoto we would take the exact same tour again with Abigail! It was one of the highlights of our trip! Abigail was so chill and knowledgeable and made sure we kept on schedule without ever feeling rushed. This tour is an absolute must if you're hoping to get pictures with no other tourists in them! She knew all the right spots and methods for getting shots like there was no one else there. Don't let the posted photos fool you, there are a lot of tourists but you wouldn't know it looking at the pictures she takes. We cannot recommend her highly enough. If you can get a spot, book this! I wish I could add more photos, but it is saying the files are too big.

Our recent visit to Kyoto with PIQTour was truly unforgettable, despite experiencing a heavy rainstorm. Abigail, our guide, demonstrated exceptional professional photography skills, capturing stunning photos even in the challenging weather. Her knowledge of Japanese culture and historical sites like Fushimi Inari Shrine and Kiyomizu Dera enriched our experience immensely. The typhoon-like conditions could not dampen our spirits or the beauty of the memories we created. Abigail's expertise and warm demeanor made this tour a standout highlight of our Japan trip, and the wonderful photographs are a testament to her talent and dedication. We highly recommend this unique experience!

We spent a few hours with Abigail in Kyoto recently for a photo package. In our group of 6 there were two children and a lady with a medical condition that can have 'challenging' behaviours. Abigail was on time, took us to some wonderful photo locations within walking distance of the meeting point, and carefully directed the groups locations patiently with the children behaving as children can. Though it rainded for us on the day the pictures were fantastic and the method of sharing the images was seamless, with a link to click on and download received just a few days after the shoot. Thanks Abigail!
