5.00We had a wonderful relaxing afternoon spent with our guide Matsu. He was very courteous and provided us with lots of information about the area and the sites we were seeing. He also saved us over an hour waiting in line time by purchasing tokens that allowed us to walk right in to Matsumoto Castle. We tasted sake made on site by a family that has been making it there for 300 years using the spring water that comes out right at their front door. We also walked down Frog Street and a food vendors street. In addition we visited a 500 year old former Samurai house and a Shinto shrine with a temple. Highly recommend this tour.

5.00Masa was a great guide! He helped us see Matsumoto castle while explaining the signficance of its history, and took great photos throughout. Afterwards, he brought us to a local sake brewery where we drank with locals, which was a great time. Lastly, he showed us some local shops and bought us taiyaki to try, which was delicious. I would recommend anyone to take a tour with him!
Highlight of our vacation

5.00What a fantastic tour! Very personalized and relaxing. Our guide was amazing, he was friendly and accommodating. Two highlights...there was a real samurai guarding the castle grounds who was so excited to take a picture with us and the sake tasting was A+. Highly recommend!
