Better late than never! Mutoh-san was truly a hidden gem. Every time I reached out to him, he responded promptly. My husband and I traveled to Tokyo in November of last year. Unfortunately, our flight was postponed, causing us to miss our first day in Japan and, subsequently, our scheduled tour with Mutoh. I contacted him while we were still in our home country to reschedule, and thankfully, he was available on our new date. He was incredibly accommodating to our needs and preferences for the tour. He took us to every place we requested and offered excellent recommendations, going above and beyond to ensure we had a fantastic experience. Mutoh-san is thoughtful and sweet—during our tour, I was pregnant, and at one of the train stations, he went out of his way to get me a small keychain that indicated my pregnancy in Japanese. This thoughtful gesture allowed people on buses and trains to see it and offer me their seat, which was incredibly kind! Thanks to Mutoh-san, our trip to Japan started on a high note. He was the best tour guide we had throughout our entire trip. We highly recommend him!!
We took the tour with Yoshie-san on the Golden Route in Kyoto visiting multiple shrines and temples and the Arashiyama Bamboo forest. I had been communicating with Yoshie-san as soon as our Japan trip was finalized. Even outside of the tour, he has been very communicative and helpful in discussing the logistics of the trip and also in catering to our customization request of the tour. He arrived very promptly at the Kyoto train station and we had no problem in identifying him. After the morning visits we had a sumptuous lunch at a boutique restaurant catering to my vegetarian cuisine request. It was a fun day of travel by multiple trains and walks with an excellent coverage. I highly recommend Yoshie-san for as greqt experience and good coverage. Thank You Yoshie-san and GoWithGuide !!
Hi Suresh-San. I appreciate your excellent review for my tour in Kyoto. I also had a great time guiding and talking with you all. I am very pleased to learn that you spent a pleasant time on my tour, My Favorite Golden Route. Be sure to get in touch if you have another chance of visiting Kansai district. Best wishes. Yoshie
Good contact, on the day of the tour in the morning one WhatsApp- Message with the important information. The driver was friendly and very good. We saw all that we wanted. The car was very clean and comfortable. Super!!!
Thank you for your review, we are very glad that you had a really good time. we will forward your comments to the driver. And we are looking forward to meeting you next time.
Toshihiro was wonderful! He is a master of the subway/train systems so gets you to all these wonderful sights in one day (you do pay for his subway day ticket, along with your own, FYI, which was a nominal cost)! Best of all, he adjusts the time you spend and the places you go based on what interests you! We really wanted to see Akihabara, which was not on his normal itinerary, and he seamlessly blended that right into our schedule instead of Shibuya. He was so patient as we geeked out and shopped at so many of the shops, and never pressured us to “stay on schedule”! I’d do it all over again!
Thank you for the fantastic tour review, Dana-san. Your hotel was located near Tokyo Metro subway station. So we could use a nominal price one day ticket. You clearly showed me your interests, which area you would like to visit in Tokyo. It was easy for me to adjust the time. You were very cooperative. Thank you again. To tell the truth, I am not so familiar with animation. But you kindly instructed me which animation characters and goods are popular now. I really enjoyed walking Akihabara with you. You gave me a lot of new knowledge. You are still in Japan. Please enjoy the rest of days!
