Kyoto Customizable Tour with Local English Guide (Amanohashidate)

Despre activitate

With an experienced local guide fluent in both English and Japanese (with previous experience guiding Hollywood actors, Lance Gross!)

All of our members were born and raised in Japan, so we have an in-depth understanding of the country. This allows us to share the hidden charms of Japan that only locals know. In addition, we offer free Japanese language support in case of emergencies.

In recent years, there has been a sharp increase in accidents and incidents involving unlicensed or inexperienced drivers who are not from Japan at other companies. Our strength lies in providing the highest level of safety and reliability through our Local English-Speaking Guides.

In addition to hands-on activities such as ninja training and chopstick-making, our strong local connections grant access to exclusive experiences — including invitations-only Ochaya and private geisha or maiko performances.
