Beautifull day in Kyoto and Nara. Our guide as very knowledgeable and friendly, and we had an excellent driver through the narrow streets. Lots too see, and having a personal tour was perfect with our family of young and old. Hope to return again someday!

Best Day Ever
Everything was taken care of, meals - entrance fees and car transportation. Meli was the nicest tour guide that we could have asked for. Having lived in so many different places in Japan she is so knowledgeable about so many different aspects. Truly an incredible day that we will never forget. Pure class from start to finish.
