Charlie,
Thank you for the photos!
We enjoyed the two days of Kyoto tours with you.
Found the textile studio especially interesting.
We are looking forward to drinking the sake we brought back to Hawaii.
Thank you for showing us the sake shop where we found it.
Mahalo!

We really enjoyed our tour with you, Charlie!
Thank you for the pictures.
Yes, the bottle of sake made it back safely!!
The bubble wrap helped a lot. Thank you for helping us with that.
We would like to visit Kyot again some day.
All in all, it was a wonderful trip.
Mahalo and Aloha,

It really worth every penny, Highly recommended.
We had very limited time but Charlie helped us make the most of our Kyoto trip.
We had a senior and kids (12 yr old and 10 yr old ) in our group but he accommodated our request as much as possible.
Thanks to him, we all had a great time including Tea ceremony experience, beautiful shrine and temple ( Shimogamo shrine, Ken-nin ji) and great lunch.
Also he gave us great advise for the next day trip in Arashi yama.
Without him, we could never had the same experience.
If you are not familiar with Kyoto and you want to make the most of your time, I highly recommend Charlie's kyoto tours.

Charlie,
Thanks a lot for the photos, we wish to thank you again for the tour.
We enjoyed it very much. Trip to China was great, very different from Japan!
Kyoto was a special place for us and we have wonderful momories of our stay.

Charlie is an excellent guide.
He took on board our wish list and came up with an itinerary that reflected it;
he showed us a range of things that kept us all enthused;
he used public transport very well to give us a feel for the real city, not just the tourist city;
and he did the near-impossible of finding an inexpensive place for lunch that was both authentically Japanese (important for me and my wife) and that met with approval from our fussy kids (aged 8 and 5).
And he was friendly and personable throughout, with great command of English.
Could not ask for anything more.
