A great Japanese tour guide. Kazu speaks English really well, is friendly, amusing and gives lots of interesting info about the shrines, temples, Geisha and Japanese life in general

Great inside in Japanese Culture and Kyoto Highlights with Kazu
Very interesting tour with Katie. He was very knowledgeable and a good storyteller and happy to answer all our questions. Because of the wide range of Kyoto sight's of course you can only cover a small part with a walking tour. especially for that it have a good overview of a lot of different topics

Fantastic Tour with Kazu
It was a super good tour with Kazu. He explained everything very well, with details and answered all the questions. Although a bit fast-paced sometimes, It was good because we could see many different spots and cover a lot. Thanks Kazu!
