Ryoji is a very gentle and caring person. Hiking tour depends much on unpredictable weather in which Ryoji kept close contact with me to have choices on dates and venues for the sake of safety. The experience of hiking and temple exploration was exceptional - especially under nice and gentle snow on the hill. In addition to his excellent English, Ryoji is very knowledgeable about the hill (and lots of Japanese cultural information). If you are expecting a non-tourist nature experience, this is the activity in Kyoto which cannot be missed!

Mami is a friendly and enthusiastic person. Her English is very good. She showed me a beautiful Osaka's night view from the top of Sky Building. We also explored local Japanese restaurant where I was the only foreigner! I was taught how to order food in Japanese too! It was a pleasant experience with Mami. Highly recommended!
