Ryu showed us a great time on a beautiful day in Kamakura. We visited several shrines (including ones with the Great Buddha, a bamboo forest, and an important Shinto shrine dedicated to the god of war), as well as a beautiful Buddhist temple with an ocean view. An unexpected treat was being able to see a wedding in progress at one of the shrines. While driving between our stops Ryu answered our questions and gave us more information about Kamakura and Japanese culture and history, along with amusing anecdotes regarding the tour he leads at Mt Fuji. He was punctual, organized and easy to understand. Thanks for a lovely day, Ryu!

Ryo is a good trustable driver but he is more than a driver, he is knowlagble person and can be considered as a professional guide. He is very flexible and accommodate easily to all our demand. It was a very good tour day to spend with him
