I have to thank Alexi Tsubasa for her priceless help that she provided to make my trip to Kyoto a fantastic and memorable experience. She was more like a local friend than a guide with great knowledge of Kyoto and not only. Great communication skills and very helpful.

Last june, I have visited with Alexi a bamboo factory in Kyoto. It was very interesting to meet this young crafftsman who manufacture beautifull suitcases and mallets in a tiny workshop with only bamboos and a few iron tool. He is representative of the very old crafstman tradition in Kyoto, even if his work is modern and unique. Without a guide, it's impossible to live such an experience and I hope Alexi will develop her cfraftmen's tours in Kyoto. And thanks to her to find for me in Kyoto a shop selling old japanese movies posters. I have made 7 travels in Japan looking for such a shop without find it!!!!
Merci beaucoup Tsubasa pour ta gentillesse et tes talents de guide culturel. Et à bientôt.

Hi there,
My friend Dimitri and I, Tom, visited Japan for the first time in June 2016. As Australians in a foreign country, we found it tricky to understand the complicated train systems and to find good restaurants and activities. When we were in Kyoto, we met Alexi Tsubasa, who was very helpful! She spoke very good English and showed us around the city, introduced us to her friends, recommended places to visit, and food to eat, and even sung at a Karaoke bar with us! She was very friendly and I am grateful that we met her, she made our trip more fun - thanks Alexi !
