Hyde was very communicative beforehand and attentive to our priority sites to visit. - Hyde was great about communicating by email and WhatsApp before the tour so we were clear about where we were going during our 6 hours. His knowledge of the local scene helped us avoid traffic mess on a parade day. He warned us ahead about a possible typhoon so we were able to adjust plans days in advance of bad weather. He took us where we asked to go and understood our interest in WWII. He added some places of interest, into our allotted time, that we didn’t know existed. He even went out of his way to assist us with needed information after the tour. A genuinely helpful and caring gentleman.

6 Hours Of Naha And More, Eternal Thanks To Nami... - On July 4th weekend, we experienced a great tour of Shurijo Castle (great to watch the rebuild effort in real time), Sefa Utaki (an incredible tour of a tradtionally spiritual region of the prefecture), Kokusai Dori (the most often referenced and visited international street of Naha) and the Tsobuya Pottery Museum area (the cultural artisan museum), provided by an absolutely amazing tour guide!!! Nami was the best tour guide possible for thorough explanation and understanding of Okinawan culture and Okinawa, Japan; this was one of the highlights of the weekend. We really appreciated the excellent job that Nami did during that very weather-hot day. Nami was so knowledgeable, very patient, very friendly, very professional and very accommodating--the typical Okinawan spirit! We truly were fortunate to get Japan Guide Agency's best guide for our tour!

The best Nara tour guide experience - Junichi - I highly recommend Junichi to anyone looking for a Nara guide. He is a former teacher who has an amazing knowledge of all cultural and historical topics. He has an extremely pleasant personality and is the best tour guide we ever had.
