Traveller reviews
Kumiko was the best tour guide we have ever had!! She has so much energy and enthusiasm, which is truly admirable. The tour went incredibly well. She gave us so much information about Takayama and the temples, and she seemed to know everything! Her shop recommendations were great too. We tried some delicious rice sticks that she recommended, and they were really good. She also brought food to feed the carp, which was such a fun experience. Even though it was August and the middle of the day (and really hot!), we had the best walking tour. Kumiko made the experience so enjoyable. You will not regret booking this tour, she is THE BEST!!!
Kumiko Mitsuhata is a very good enthusiastic and professional guide. She is extremely kind, knowledgeable and considerate. I would highly recommend her to any tourist wanting a local guide of Takayama.
Kumiko defines above and beyond in care, knowledge, and attention. She is amazingly talented in art and calligraphy and willingly shared her expertise with us I cannot give her higher praise. We were fortunate to have her as a guide
Our tour guide Kumiko was phenomenal. One of the best we have ever had. So knowledgeable and friendly. Showed us the best areas of Takayama. She gave us great cafe and restaurant recommendations. I definitely recommend anyone to go on a tour with Kumiko. She went out of her way to make sure we had a phenomenal experience.
What an incredible day with Kumiko. She was so informative, full of energy and kindness, and has spent most of her life in Takayama which is always helpful for a tour guide. She tailored the tour to my personal interests and showed me her favorite historical places, food stalls and shops. If you are fortunate maybe you will get to see her artistic skills! I only wish the tour had been longer or that we could have spent more time together. Such a treat and highly recommend!
Kumiko was our guide around Takayama today. We visited the Morning Market, Festive Floats, shrine and Takayama Old Town. Her manner was so delightful, friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. She made our visit a highlight of our travels here in Japan. Takayama Tours is a must use!!! Thank you Kimiko.
We had a very comprehensive tour. Our guide Kumico was excellent. She had "teaching aids" like photos, charts or videos. Was very kind and polite, answered patiently to every question. She made us want to come again to Takayama. To my opinion visiting Takayama without a guide will not give you a proper value. I am not familiar with the other guids but I can highly recommand Kumico.
I had Kumiko as my guide and she was fantastic, knowledgeable and incredibly kind. She was very engaging and her own binders of information made all of the stories easier to understand and fun to learn. She's an amazing artist and can quickly draw and create such cute things for you. I totally love my Kaonishi drawing! 😁
