    I give this tour my highest recommendation. Miyu was extremely knowledgable, friendly and most helpful. We had some issues with the bullet train being late due to a power issue (we travelled from the Kobe cruise port), and she waited an hour for us and also helped us rearrange our return when our return train was delayed as a result of the outage. Despite the delay, we managed to see everything we wanted to see, and she was great at giving us lots of information at each site. Her English is excellent. I am so glad we found this tour. It really was great.
