Noe-san was the consummate tour guide, whose energy, warmth, intelligence, and professionalism put her among the very finest guides we have ever had, and we have had many. Her frequent digital communications with itinerary options helped us make the most of our time in Kyoto. Her written and spoken English are impeccable, her manner both polite and pleasantly light-hearted, and she brought additional visuals and teaching materials to help educate us on important cultural and historical details. If you are traveling with children or teens. Noe’s stamina, sense of humor, and patience would serve you well. She also gives excellent advice and travel tips on what to visit on your own, if you wish. In short, we enjoyed Noe very much, and recommend her highly.

We had a fantastic tour and give our highest possible recommendation to Noe. Well in advance, she provided us with a spreadsheet of multiple tour options and detailed cost information. We chose to do a tour from 9am to 3pm including Kinkakuji temple, Ryoanji temple, Jajyakkoji temple, the bamboo forest, Tenryuji temple, and the Togetsukyo bridge. At every location, Noe told us the history that allowed us to get the most out of our visit, and answered all of our questions about the sites and Japanese history. It was also great to get to know Noe throughout the day, and she took us to a fantastic noodle restaurant for lunch. Even after the tour was done, she followed up later that night with restaurant recommendations for Tokyo, the next stop of our trip. Noe is organized, prepared, fun, and made sure we had a great experience.
