Off the beaten path, travel with Keshara! - Keshara is a skillful driving master, knowledgeable and nimble in busy traffic, handling the large tourist van expertly, steadily and effortlessly, navigating competently the ways and means of Japan. He was able to smoothly meet the needs and demands from our opinionated and divergent group of passengers. Technologically proficient, he was able to show us how to use the Google map when we were lost among the busy crowd. We had a wonderful time sightseeing Japan, thanks to Keshara!

Kyoto day tour - I booked this tour last minute. We are traveling in Japan as a family of 6 with 4 young children so was seeking something that could both fit us and accommodate our unique needs. We were able to select a later time in the day. The guides were able to answer my questions and for anything they didn't know made a strong effort to answer them. We set the itinerary and was able to choose our own adventure. Recommend this for anyone seeking a similar experience in Kyoto.

Disappointing, not informative, limited - Our guide did not explain things as we were riding. He spent more time speaking with his assistant. She was new and not knowledgeable. They were pleasant but parents were old and he was not accommodating like our last tour.

Disappointing experience - We booked this tour after much reading and research. The reviews were between good and bad so we tried them out. First of all we had a bad day with rain but we decided to make the best of the day since we had this as one of our cruise excursion stops. Kyoto is very important itinerary for us but it started with Keshara being late arriving as our agreed time. Then the van is filthy and not something you expected in Japan. Turns out that he is the driver and guide and he spoke so softly that we all cannot understand not hear him properly. In terms of Overall experience, he was not professional at all as a guide in terms of his tardiness and personal grooming needs more attention.

The Guys are nice and... - The Guys are nice and good drivers but not very organized or knowledgeable. Take care the train from Osaka to Kyoto, it’s only 15 minutes. They insisted on picking us up from Osaka hotel and we were stuck in traffic for an hour. That was after, a 45 minutes late start to begin with.
