Kochi is a fantastic guide. It was the middle of the summer and very hot and Kochi helped readjust our day so that we could still see the sights and keep cool (as much as possible). He was also very helpful before the trip and helped to arrange several other activities. His communication is fantastic and he genuinely wants you to have the best time. He even took pictures for us so we have great family photos of our trip now. Would definitely recommend booking with him! He’s the best.
Thank you for your comment. Please enjoy the rest of the trip and take care. (. .)
Kochi planned our day well and according to our preferences. He was knowledgeable and very pleasant company as well. He arrived promptly and made sure we didn't miss anything on the itinerary. At times we would linger to take many photos, he waited patiently and even suggested locations with the best views. Kochi, thanks for a wonderful time in Hakone !
Thanks for your evaluation.
We are so glad we booked Kochi for the day! We were able to see everything we wanted in Hakone plus some. It was a perfect day.
Thank you for your evaluation. Have good days in Kyoto and Osaka.
We had a great day with Junichiro Koichi. He was kind, interesting to talk with and made sure we had a good day. We covered everything in his itinerary. it would have been stressful and have taken a lot longer to see everything we did in the time we spent together. We highly recommend him if you are wanting to visit Hakone.
Thank you for your kind feedback. I also really enjoyed conversation with you and David. Take safe and enjoyable trip in Japan.
