“I highly recommended this tour! My guide, Yoko, was very polite and helpful with my experience at Nagasaki. She meet me at where I was staying right on time at 9 am. She quickly asked what I wanted to visit, make recommendations and come out with a plan to visit all the sites I wanted right away. Yoko's experience, preparedness and expertise were very surprising, I would give her simple cues of sites I wanted to visit and quickly identify the site, get her picture book and confirm the site, then there there fast. I never felt pressure to leave earlier and the commentary provide by Yoko was very enlightening.”

He reached out a few days beforehand to confirm my interests so he could tailor the experience. He was very friendly, patient with all my questions, and knowledgeable about the city. I highly recommend this tour if you’re new to Japan.”
