Thanks to Dominic, we got a lot of insights into life in Kyoto and especially the Gion quarter on our private walking tour. Dominic can be asked anything and gets extremely informed answers, also thanks to his personal Japan and Kyoto experiences. We enjoyed this entertaining afternoon with Dominic and his enthusiasm for “his” city is infectious.
