A private tour to remenber. In Osaka with Yuko

Published on Oct, 2023

This private tour in Osaka was at the end of our trip in Japan and after 2 weeks all over the country our guide had to be very creative impresing us with something special. Yuko, our nice guide did precisely that with courtesy and excellense. She chose the best Osaka has to show about the city, their people and their customs. She was very interactive with us and acomodate the time and places to our needs. If in Osaka your best guide: Yuko Kishihara. Kudos to her.

Walking Tour

Published on Apr, 2023

We did a private tour with our guide Hiro. It was very educational and catered to our needs. We enjoyed meeting him and appreciated his tour. It was a lot of walking if you are disabled or walking a lot is hard I would think twice.

Not enough hours in the day

Published on Apr, 2023

We had a driver and a guide which made it very squishy. The guide was ok but the driver was better. Went out of his way to help us. We were fortunate to take the lifts in Osaka castle which is amazing and could easily take a full day with all the exhibitions and art and history. Shitenoji temple was also the best we have seen. Food market not as good as Tokyo. Probably the best private tour we have done for history.
