We had an incredible day with Daika! This was the tour to really be able to authentically experience Nara and Osaka. We enjoyed the beautiful sights, interacting with the deer, Osaka nightlife, delicious local food, and conversation that really put us in touch with the cities and everything we saw and experienced.

Excellent value to cover highlights of Nara and Osaka. Comfortable and clean van. Daiki was excellent, friendly and talking about life in Japan. He took us to a meal with Japanese curry that was out of this world. I strongly recommend for folks with little time in the region.

Absolutely AMAZING tour. We were guided by Ayuri, who was not only knowledgeable but also incredible at conveying her knowledge and making it easy for people from other cultures to understand. Apart from her vast knowledge she was also kind, generous and engaging. The spots visited were great on their own, but having Ayuri as our guide took it to a whole other level. Cannot recommend it enough.

The organisation done by sunrise travels was very good. The guide Uki explained each and every point very nicely with her melodious voice. She also accompanied us for veg food at Dahana Paani, where the food was yummy. Thank you Uki ma'am & Sunrise travels for your memorable service.

Amazing Nishiki Market Tour with Yumi!
The Nishiki Market Brunch Walking Tour was fantastic, and our guide, Yumi, made it truly special. Yumi was incredibly kind, knowledgeable, and fun. She shared great information about the market and Japanese food while making everyone feel welcome. We loved all the food stops and would highly recommend this tour—especially with Yumi as your guide!
