Without Roberto it wouldn't have been the same

5.00Definitely a great guide; that's why I rate him so high. He has been concerned with even the smallest detail, offering totally personalized attention. His extensive career in Japan (over 25 years) means that his experience exceeds that of any ordinary guide. He is a master of Japanese culture, a professional in his work and a great lover of Japanese customs. You can see that he loves what he does and that he transmits it with real affection. Thanks for everything!!!

5.00Just the experience was wonderful. Roberto has made us a guide, a historian, has been very attentive to us, our needs and very friendly. We have learned a lot with all the explanations he has been giving us. We have been very comfortable with it, and as a plus it has helped us with topics that go beyond the guide, such as trains and buses that we had to catch the next day among other things. Certainly much of the experience we have and will have in Kyoto will be owed to him.
Unforgettable guide and day

5.00We had Roberto as a guide for two days in Kyoto and it was the best decision of our trip. In his explanations you can see the passion he feels for his work, they are very clear and also with his recommendations we were able to live experiences out of the ordinary. He was very attentive throughout, helped us in everything and had many details with us. We'll definitely pick him again when we get back.

5.00Roberto has been a great guide, in addition to explaining everything phenomenal, he has given us alternatives to the excursion that was scheduled, as it rained a lot. He is a friendly, well documented, friendly and resourceful guide. Highly, highly recommended.

5.00We were lucky to have Roberto, for a couple of days in Kyoto and the experience could not be better. Not only do you get to know the history and the most authentic corners of the city, but you also care about making the visit close, dynamic and very enriching. We recommended typical and authentic restaurants, away from the most tourist routes, which made us enjoy even more local cuisine. Even, outside of his working hours, he was kind enough to join us and make sure everything went perfectly. Your professionalism, sympathy and dedication make a difference. We definitely recommend it 100% and would repeat with it without thinking. William
