We had a very enjoyable and informative 3 day tour with our guide Yoshi. Yoshi took us to many places where we were able to enjoy many things Japan has to offer. Two stand out highlights were feeding turtles and a Buddhist fire ceremony. Despite the very hot humid days Yoshi was well organised, very energetic with very good english language skills. Thank you Yoshi Vic and Margaret Roberts
