Dear Mr. Kazuhiko, I wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt thanks for the wonderful guided tour of Kyoto's historic landmarks. Your extensive knowledge and passion for the city's rich history truly enriched our experience. Your ability to convey the significance of each site, from the serene beauty of Kinkaku-ji to the profound spirituality of Fushimi Inari Shrine, left a lasting impression on us. Moreover, your anecdotes and insights provided invaluable context, making the tour both educational and engaging. I especially appreciated your patience and willingness to answer our questions, which further deepened our understanding of Kyoto's cultural heritage. Your professionalism and warmth made the tour not only informative but also enjoyable. Thank you once again for a memorable experience. I will certainly recommend your services to anyone visiting Kyoto in the future. Warm regards, Beata & Adam
Dear Beata & Adam, Thank you for the nice review. I am sorry for making you walk a lot in the hot weather. Have you recovered from the fatigue? I had a great time too. Thank you very much!! I hope this tour will be a memorable one in Japan, and I hope you will come back to Japan again. Best regards, Kazuhiko Goto
We were extremely lucky to have Kazu as our guide for Kyoto. He was so very patient and accommodating as we kept on changing our plans. Being a group of 11, we were his largest group he had ever worked with and we were probably very difficult to wrangle and organize. Kazu was always positive and patient. He was extremely knowledgeable about Kyoto, the culture and the landmarks. We would all recommend Kazu to anyone who is visiting Japan.
Hello, Thank you for the nice review. I hope you are not too tired from the hot weather. I enjoyed guiding this tour as well. I hope this tour will be a memorable one for all of us. Thank you!!
Kazu is a very good guide. He guided us through Kyoto and took us to many of the key spots. He was very timely and organized. He explained where we were going and what we were going to see and how we were going to get there. He also communicated very well before the trip. I would highly recommend Kazu as a guide!
Thank you for the nice review. I am glad you had a good time. I hope this tour will be a memorable tour in Japan. I hope you will come back to Japan again. Thank you very much!!
Kazu was awesome! He met us at our hotel and helped navigate the public transit system so we could go to Nara. We were excited for the deer, but the temples blew us away. Very beautiful! He brought all these pamphlets and instruction sheets to help with history which was appreciated. Then a great local lunch spot! Highly recommend this tour!
Thank you for the nice review. I am glad you had an enjoyable tour. I had a great time too. I hope this tour will be a memorable tour in Japan. Thank you very much !!
