We 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.

Roberto 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.

We 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

Taking advantage of our stay in Kyoto, we had the opportunity to take two private tours with Roberto. We couldn't be happier! Lots of spectacular photos to show our friends (even video summary at the end of each excursion), interesting explanations and recommendations of places to enjoy the wonderful cuisine of Kyoto. We have no doubt that if we had to recommend someone to guide us during your visit to Kyoto, that would be Roberto!

Excellent explanations Roberto, very clear and easy to understand, with many curiosities and you can see that he understands a lot about what he talks. He took several photos during our tour and even a summary video. In addition, he gave us very good recommendations on places to eat even helping us with them after the end of the Tour. We definitely recommend you as a guide to visit the city.
