Amazing sights - This experience was very good. So many sights to see. The guide was knowledgeable and easy to spend the day with. The sights are amazing. For future travelers here are some notes on this trip: -“pick up at hotel” means the guide will meet your party at your hotel -You will be taking public transportation (trains/bus) to get to Kamakura. You are responsible for paying for tickets, including your guide. It comes to about 3000 yen per person - This tour is a LOT of walking. About 20,000 steps and quite a few stairs. Thanks to Florent for making our day extraordinary!

Amazing! - The Kamakura tour was amazing! The booking process was very efficient and easy. I chose to be picked up from my hotel, and my guide, Raffa, picked me up on time and dropped me back at the same place. Raffa is very knowledgeable, speaks fluent Japanese, and is friendly, helpful, and highly professional. He absolutely deserves five stars! I would gladly recommend this tour and book for future tours if and when I need a guide in Japan. Thank you so much!

Great tour in an amazing city! - We had an amazing time on this tour, guide was super nice and gave us a lot of informations about Kamakura (such a wonderful city) and Japanese culture, took us to a really nice restaurant and gave us a lot of advices for the rest of our trip. He also showed us another sanctuary (Hansobo shrine) which was a bit hidden and less known, with an amazing view on Mount Fuji. I would definitely recommend this tour!
