Tailor made touring - Since I was able to choose what I wanted to see. My guide Takako kindly to me to the Noh theater museum, as there were no Kubuki performances during my stay. It was perfect replacement, great to learn about the History of Noh Japanese Theater. Then we were able to tour Nagoya Castle. Being i was also interested in Japanese stoneware, but no factories were open. She took me to a second hand store. It was wonderful rummaging through all the treasures, where I made many purchases at bargain prices. Takako put a lot of thought into helping me achieve my wish list and making a huge success of my tour time. I highly recommend her as a guide. She was very fun, personable and knowledgeable.

Nagoya walking tour - We went to Atsuta jingu, Nagoya Castle and Shike-michi. It was a bummer that we couldn't enter Nagoya Castle due to repair but we really enjoyed the Hommaru Goten. It was beautiful. Our guide Atsumi was a cute friendly guide. We had good conversations and she helped us getting around, but she didn't have much knowledge about historical background of Nagoya and sites we visited.
