it was af fine day in Kochi City, there was a good flow to the contents and it all conncted together quite well. The guide was good and explained things well in addition to giving us a lot of free time to ourselves to explore Hirome Market and the Sunday Market. Keep in mind that there is a lot of walking but overall it is a fine experience

The flexibility to chose locations that suited our wants and abilities was great. Hiro San was very quick to put together an itinerary that accommodated a family with a stroller-baby (no monkey park due to long unpacked walking paths). Taking in the beautiful temples and view of the Kyoto from the west was breath taking and the guide was able to explain many things we as new Japanese learners could not read or know through cultural knowledge. Overall a great experience, a wonderful and lively guide, and some great memories.
