He was very flexible as we were getting over illness and he was warm and friendly. We really appreciate the quality time he spent with us and we could have not asked for more!

Shrines Galore - Our private tour guide was wonderful, so knowledgeable , so pleasant and delightful. This was the best tour of our trip. Best way to immerse in a culture with a private guide and ride the subways and buses with the local population. Loved everything about it.
