Cannot say enough great things about Richard as a tour guide! We explored Nijo Castle and his narration was immersive which made every room come more alive. His thoughtfulness and deliberation of his delivery comes only from a passion that is rather obvious (and contagious). I appreciated the balance of sharing historical facts and how he views some of the same cultural traits evident in today's fashion, housing and etiquette. It is with the highest recommendation to choose any of Richard's tours, you will not be disappointed! We are grateful he shared his gift with us.
I was originally going to check out Nijo Castle on my own, but when I saw that Richard was hosting tours I knew I had to book him after going on one of his tours a few days beforehand! Richard comes prepared with deep knowledge and historical context about the castle. He explained the history of the castle, the architecture, how the rooms were used in the past, and how samurai culture was lived in the castle. Just because of the timing I managed to get a solo tour with Richard, and while going through the castle I noticed several times other people stopping to listening as Richard explained things to me. He speaks with such authority that someone even started asking him questions, and he graciously spread his knowledge to the edification of both myself and other curious guest. Absolutely worth your time and money. There's a lot more I want to see in Kyoto, and next time visit I will be booking more tours with Richard and TripTomo!
It was absolutely great! My interest in Japanese culture, and especially the samurai times started as a kid when I watched the 1980 Shogun tv-series. My guide Richard explained me a lot details about the castle but also about, Japanese culture, samurai, daimyo and the shogun. I loved it, thanks Richard!
This was the best tour we had while traveling in Japan! Richard was amazing, passionate, and incredibly knowledgeable. You could tell he truly loves what he does. If you’re able to add this tour to your itinerary, definitely do it you won’t regret it!
Richard gave us a wonderful, informative experience at Nijo Castle despite the rain and crowds. He knows how to pace the tour to avoid clumping us up with tons of people without us feeling like we were being herded. He is knowledgeable, full of interesting facts and theories about historic and modern-day Japan. I learned to appreciate rocks! I would ask him for another tour in a heartbeat.
This was a fantastic experience with Richard as my guide through Nijo Castle. Richard was easy to find at the castle entrance and filled the entire tour with interesting insight and details about Shogun history, traditions, art, culture and castle design. He also explained how the castle interacted with the Kyoto Imperial Palace which is about 2 km away. The castle and gardens are fully accessible and were not very crowded when I was there the day before Japan's busy Golden Week began. I highly recommend this tour!
This was the best tour we have done in Japan so far. We got excellent explanations of the history, culture, etiquette etc of the castle in the shogun era from a native Japanese local who also put things into the context of modern Japanese culture — all with impeccable English. He was polite, knowledgeable, gave great explanations. It was clear that he has a passion for sharing his culture and history that made the experience much more impactful. He was also kind enough to take time to recommend local restaurants / spots. I would recommend this tour as a must do in Kyoto and would gladly repeat the tour if I came back with someone who had not been here before.
Our guide Richard was very knowledgeable about Japanese history and nuanced in the stories he shared. The castle is stunning with unexpected details that reflect our modern sensibilities.
