“WONDERFUL, Yao is the best guide in the world!! He’s so friendly, and you can tell he truly loves what he does. Throughout the trip, he explained the history of Nara and shared all the important details about each place we visited. I highly recommend this activity to anyone in Osaka looking to enjoy a unique and wonderful day. Thank you, Yao, for giving us such a beautiful day!”
