Beautiful shrine with Great guide Caleb - Our guide Caleb was wonderful! He was very knowledgeable about the shrine and did a great job of showing it to us in a fun and engaging way! We definitely recommend doing this trip, as it is the most magnificent shrine in Japan, and we also recommend Caleb for guiding you there!

Great Tour, Highly Recommend - Doing this tour at night was a really great experience. We had Caleb as our host and he was incredibly knowledgable about the entire site. He taught us the history of the gates and how to pray in the correct custom. I recommend doing it at night with few crowds where you can really get good photos and wander at your own pace.

A perfect way to visit and learn - I learned so much on this tour and made the difference between visiting a place and enjoying the asthetics and visiting a location and getting all the context and stories that make the visit so much more interesting.

Wonderful guide and tour with a personal touch - Hiro was an amazing tour guide. I had a broken toe and he completely customized our experience to make sure I was comfortable. He also knew all the great photo spots (and his English was fantastic). Highly recommend!

Great way to visit Fushimi-Inari and avoid big crowds! - Vincent is a great tour guide! We booked a night tour of Fushimi Inari and it was the perfect time to visit because there are no crowds! Vincent was wonderful at adding context and history to enrich your time there. It wasn't just "Oh look at these Torii gates," or "hmm why are there horses here and why are the wooden plaques called ema." We had a great time walking around in the evening, the shrine takes on a much more spiritual atmosphere than during the crowded daytime. Definitely recommend Vincent and Tomodachi tours!
