Benjamin - Guida turistica a Kyoto

Sono Ben. Mi sono trasferito a Kyoto otto anni fa dopo aver sposato mia moglie, che è originaria di Kyoto, e col tempo questa città è diventata davvero casa per me. Negli ultimi anni ho lavorato come guida, organizzando passeggiate storiche, tour gastronomici ed esperienze culturali in tutta Kyoto. Se siete curiosi di conoscere la cultura delle geisha (geiko), il kimono, la cerimonia del tè o volete semplicemente sapere dove vanno gli abitanti del posto, sarò felice di indicarvi la giusta direzione. Non esitate a contattarmi in qualsiasi momento. Sono qui per aiutarvi a vivere Kyoto nel modo più autentico possibile.

Good guide, he knows the way to avoid too much people he knows very well the area and the tour was different in some ways, enough information, not too much, that is good because later you only remember or only need a few information

Risposta di Benjamin:
Thank you so much! I’m glad my “Kyoto crowd-avoidance skills” didn’t disappoint! Hope you enjoy the rest of your trip, and thank you again for taking the time to write this! See you soon!

We thoroughly enjoyed our morning tour with Ben. He lives in the area, he shared not just information about the area, history, culture…, but we also talked about daily life and many many other things. As it was a low season, we were the only two visitors and Ben did the tour just for us, which we really appreciated. We highly recommend this tour - it was not crowded in the morning and Ben can easily adjust to one’s interests. He is an experienced guide. Many thanks, Ben, for this super nice walk!

Risposta di Benjamin:
I really appreciated the chance to spend that quiet time with you, especially in the low season. It made the experience feel more personal, and I’m glad we could go beyond the usual sightseeing and talk about daily life and all sorts of other things too. That’s honestly one of my favorite parts of guiding.

Hi Free Walkers, If you want to do a guru free walking tour in Kyoto, I can warmly recommend you to choose the one guided by Benjamin.  Why you might wonder? Well, because it was good :) But what is good? It is hard to define good since it's very personal how one experiences something as good and many factors in which we have no control can colour these experiences. I can only tell you that the experience I had, this cold and rainy, early December morning was good. And it was mostly because of him as a person and his presentation, trust me. Before the start he contacts you so you know that what you're about to attend is a sure thing. He gives you a warm and friendly welcome with a big smile. Personally, I'm not easily impressed, but he had my attention pretty quick and ongoing and that's a good thing.  He knows the story and the history, he tells it in a good spontaneous way, he is open for debate and parole and drinks his coffee latte & cold. Truly, he is a nice warm guy and does a great job as a guide, it has to be told.

Risposta di Benjamin:
I honestly don’t think I’ve ever received a review this detailed, I’m really touched. Thank you so much for taking the time to write it. And I feel the same: you gave me a great morning too. The walk was relaxed and I loved how we could just go with the flow. Three bites of onigiri, stepping into the unesco temple, and chatting along the way made it genuinely special for me. I’m also really glad we got to exchange ideas, hearing how you see things gave me a lot to think about, and I learned new perspectives from you as well. Hope to see you again next time. Until then, take care and safe travels!
