    We were 2 families (9people) traveling with teens. Without Tadashi, we would have seen half of what we were able to see on the tour. He was efficient with time and very knowledgeable. We learned a lot and the kids enjoyed it as he presented just the right amount of info to engage them but not overwhelm. I can’t recommend him enough as a guide for Kyoto!

    My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour of Kyoto. Tadashi was incredible. He communicated with us prior to the tour regarding our interests. He picked us up at our hotel on time with a very comfortable vehicle. Tadashi was very accommodating, personable, knowledgeable, professional and had a wonderful sense of humor. I would highly recommend Tadashi.
