This tour was absolutely worth it! I always look for something a bit different to do than the usual tourist stuff, and having my own professional photographer guide me around beautiful Kanazawa ticked all the boxes! It was a great way to see almost everything in one go, and having an English speaking guide really helped me appreciate the sights more. But the best bit was the photos. TK is incredibly professional and took stunning shots (I'm not usually photogenic at all!), but also helped me learn a bit more about taking my own photos for the future. Japan is a bit expensive in general, but I found this to be pretty good value for money considering all the inclusions. Thank you so much for showing me your city. I really loved our time together. And the photos made the perfect gifts when I returned!

The flexibility to chose locations that suited our wants and abilities was great. Hiro San was very quick to put together an itinerary that accommodated a family with a stroller-baby (no monkey park due to long unpacked walking paths). Taking in the beautiful temples and view of the Kyoto from the west was breath taking and the guide was able to explain many things we as new Japanese learners could not read or know through cultural knowledge. Overall a great experience, a wonderful and lively guide, and some great memories.
