Atsuko was informative and very friendly. It was a great way to start our Japan journey and experience Osaka. Atsuko was able to accommodate our dietary needs and helped us with little tips for the rest of our stay in Osaka including restaurant recommendations near our hotel (as well as ways to find our way back to the hotel). I would highly recommend booking with Atsuko for enjoyable tour. Arigatou gozaimasu!

Hello Mr. Chaim, Thank you for your kind review and comment for me. I really enjoyed this tour with all of you. It was fun to show you my home town, Osaka, and talk with all of you. Thank you. Best regards, Atsuko
Ms Atsuko is a professional and accomodating guide. She is attentive to our needs. She knows her way around Arashiyama and was able to organise her tour efficiently. Ms Atsuko even went out of the way to show us Kinkakuji when it was not part of the itinerary. Five stars!
Hello Mr. Augustine, Thank you for your review and comment for me. I am happy you enjoyed visiting Arashiyama and Kinkakuji Temple. We walked a lot today. Luckily, we could see the quiet bamboo forest in the temple. It was fun for me to talk with you and show you the beauty in Kyoto. Thank you for joining my tour. Please say hello to Agnes. Best regards, Atsuko
My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Atsuko. She took us to some great spots around Osaka. Atsuko was also very proactive, she even asked if we have any dietary requirements which is an extremely nice touch. She is also very knowledgeable when it comes to the history of the places that we visited and was very accomodating for any questions that we had. Would definitely book her again for our future trip.
Hello Mr. Jef, Thank you for your kind review and comment for me. I also enjoyed the tour with you yesterday. The weather was very strange. It was raining in the morning and sunny and humid in the afternoon. I think your wife, Azhar, must have been very tired. I am happy to join a part of your honeymoon trips. Please visit Japan again. I am looking forward to seeing you again. Thank you. Best regards, Atsuko
