Atchen was probably the friendliest guide (or human for that matter) I’ve ever seen in real life. If you want to check the box and get photos at most of the tourist locations in Kyoto this is a good option. Much better than the deer park tour.
We are not usually tour people but decided to go on this one since we had limited time in Kyoto. We were not disappointed! We were traveling with 2 children, including 1 toddler in stroller, and everything went so smoothly. From the nice driver helping with the stroller to our AMAZING guide At-chan, we enjoyed every moment. At-chan is the most engaging, sweet, always smiling, and so knowledgeable guide we’ve ever had. It was like meeting an old friend. She even made origami with my kids during the transport to sites. She was explaining a lot while we were in the bus, with drawings, maps, pictures. We could follow where we were going and what to look for. The food was great, with everything for young kids. We recommend this tour 150%!
