Had a WONDERFUL time with Ryota doing a private tour! So easy to talk to and very knowledgeable. Started the day at the port. Highly recommend going up the Kōbe port tower for amazing views. Then on to china town for some shopping and food and to wrap it up, he took us to a BEAUTIFUL Japanese zen garden which was especially amazing since the leaves were changing. Thanks Ryota!

This was a terrific experience with my wife. My family has a remote nineteenth century connection with Kobe and has always been of interest. "Max" was able to tailor the day to our interests. It was a very unseasonably warm autumn day and the broad brimmed hat was essential. There's not a not of tree cover.
