A fun day out - A great outing with a family of 3 x Adults and 3 x Kids (all under 10). Our guide Awais was very knowledgable of the three different locations we explored and was a safe driver transporting us around. I’s highly recommend him for other groups!

Toyota tour in Nagoya - I decided to go with Milkyway Tours for my trip to Nagoya from Kyoto. I wanted to visit the Toyota museums and my options were either multiple trains, a rental car, Uber taxi or private driver. I’m glad I chose Milkyway. Awais was a fantastic driver. He was patient, considerate and able to answer all my questions. Highly recommended if you do not want to hassle with public transportation or the headache of driving or dealing with parking.

Kyoto and Nara day - Awashi drove us around and was very patient and kind to our family. He went with us and offered to take family pictures for us, that was very nice. My family wanted to take a lot of pictures of the beautiful scenery and selfies - Awashi was very patient and did not rush us. We had a very nice day and enjoyed our time. I would recommend this experience to anyone looking for a customizable tour of Kyoto and Nara. Thank you Awashi, you are a very skilled driver!
