“ Kamakura Explore with Masa ”
We had the most amazing experience with a private full day tour with Masa. He is kind, engaging and so passionate about sharing his Kamakura knowledge. Communication prior to the tour was quick and he was flexible to allow us to start a bit earlier to fit in with other plans- this was great because it meant that at some places we could experience the temple without crowds. Although a busy day, we never felt rushed and as we used many backstreets got to experience a real sense of the town and its people. Million star rating if we could !! Thank you Masa - hope to see you again one day and explore Kamakura with you.

We truly enjoyed our walks and conversations along the way, exchanging many ideas! I assume you're going to explore various destinations across Japan. I hope you'll savor the diverse aspects of my country. Have a fantastic trip! See you next time! Masa
