Sono Ben. Mi sono trasferito a Kyoto otto anni fa dopo aver sposato mia moglie, che è originaria di qui, 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, persino i tamburi giapponesi... o semplicemente volete sapere dove vanno davvero 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.
Ben was fantastic. He built a detailed and well organized walk that we all enjoyed. His sense of humor and information added an extra pinch of delight to the walk. Highly recommended
Ben was incredibly personal and informative as we walked through the bamboo forest and beautiful surrounding area. We were grateful for his flexibility as it was a very rainy day and he was willing to continue the tour when other visitors had cancelled. The tour surpassed our expectations and is an area that shouldn’t be missed. Definitely on our list to visit again if we are so fortunate!
Great guide!! Very personable and good information.
Ben is a wonderful tour guide, easy going, pleasant, friendly with a great sense of humor. We saw much more of Arashiyama than just the Bamboo Forest. He took us to points of interest we would not have found on our own. Also saw beautiful scenery that provided good photo ops. I recommend Ben and this tour if you’re in Kyoto.
