Ahmed was awesome. Both knowledgeable and super great company. I wholeheartedly recommend to anyone looking to explore Kyoto and/or Tokyo. His knowledge, enthusiasm, and friendly demeanor made the tour not only educational but also incredibly enjoyable. I’ll definitely be seeking him out for future tours.

We enjoyed the tailored tour, sights, and our tour guide. Overall, I would recommend. However, I suggest reading thoroughly the entire description and be prepared to pay two to three times more than the actual fee for travel costs alone.

Our day long trip to Kyoto was full of delight from end to end. We left Tokyo Station on the bullet train at 6:30 am, arrived at Kyoto Station at 8:30 am and we were with our tour guide, Midori before 9:00 am. Midori was an excellent guide. She packed in as much as possible between 9:00 am and 7:00 pm, and she was wanting to show us more if we had time. Site included Bamboo forest and Tenryuji Temple, Kinkakuji Temple, Nijo Castle, Fushimi Inari shrine and Kiyomizu-dera Temple. We came hoping we would “see enough” and left believing “there was little left to see”. The only drawback of a single day-day trip to Kyoto from Tokyo is that if you prioritize the shrines and the temples it leaves little time for shopping if that’s of interest.

This tour was the best for visiting amd exploring the beautiful city of kyoto in one day. The guide felt like a family member, she was aware of the history, Local attractions, amd walked us through all of the city's major attractions. My first time in kyoto, and she helped us in covering everything in a day and was so helpful. Would definitely recommend this tour if you want the best for your family.
1. The transportation provided was excellent.
2. They spoke arabic, english, amd Japanese, so this was very helpful.
3. They gave us options and asked about our dietary needs.
4. Made sure that we finish everything on time and to guide us through the train station.

We had a wonderful time on our quick trip to Kyoto from Tokyo. Midori, our guide was thoughtful and knowledgeable. She accommodated our requests for an authentic local Japanese meal as well as picking up separately arriving family members. The tour managed to fit in many of the Kyoto must-see sights in a limited amount of time. Midori is also a very good photographer.
The car rental in Kyoto was luxurious and the driver skillful; but, very expensive and not included in the cost of the tour.

We had the most amazing exper9ience with our private tour guide, Noriko. She was knowledgeable in the history of each city, shrine, and park we visited and her personality was welcoming and kind. Each step of this guided tour was easy to follow and translated to us in detail. We loved the flexibility of choosing where we wanted to go along wtih Noriko's guidance where and when we weren't sure. Our driver was polite, promt, safe, and well versed in the city grids. Our organizer, Ahmed started us out on the right track with an early departure and clear directions to access the Shinkasen (bullet train). Overall 10/10 experiene for me and my teenage daughters!

Our guide Yukari was amazing. She was knowledgeable and very fun! Yukari took us to fabulous historical locations and provided wonderful stories about each. If possible ask for her as your guide.

Ahmed was a fabulous host. Very knowledgeable about Kyoto, the history and significance of each Temple/Shrine and sight we visited. He planned out a full, but logical day, that ended perfectly at sunset.
Highly recommend his service.
