We had a wonderful evening with Ryo (our photographer) and Hasegawa-San at his exclusive restaurant! Hasegawa-San and his staff were very accommodating with our dietary restrictions (we are vegetarian), and cooked up a masterful 8 course dinner ! The dinner was tasty, and my family loved the whole experience! Afterwards, even though we were early for the sakura (they hadn’t bloomed yet), Ryo-San found us a couple of trees that had blossomed and took some beautiful pictures! I recommend the tour highly- thank you for giving us such a wonderful experience!

Hugo was an incredible guide: he was knowledgeable, interesting, and funny. We learned so much about Kyoto and about Japan on our tour and got to see areas of the city that we would not have explored on our own. We loved the bars and the variety of foods that were selected for us as well. We highly recommend Hugo and this tour for anyone visiting Kyoto.
