Our guide Emi was very prompt in picking us up at our hotel. She was very capable of navigating the train station and tickets etc. including the cable car up to Mt Koya. She knew so much about the area and the history. She was a wealth of knowledge when we went thru the very old cemetery. She was a delight. We had a wonderful lunch with her as well. She knew the bus stops to the cemetery and the temples we visited. We could not have enjoyed this as much if it were not for Emi. I would highly recommend her for any tour. She is delightful.

The whole trip was fantastic we were really pleased we travelled into the mountains to see the countryside and experience the serenity of the temples. The hall of lanterns was a highlight of our whole trip to Japan

My family and two family friends and I went to Mt Koya with our guide, Maya. Maya was very knowledgeable about the sites at Mt Koya and helped to explain the customs that we witnessed there. It was a magical and spiritual experience. I highly recommend this tour! Also, we booked a private taxi which saved a lot of time getting to Mt Koya and getting around the various sites. I highly recommend asking your guide for a private taxi.

Mr. Hideo Yoshida was amazing. He was very fast and took us from our hotel deep into the mountains to Koyasan. He had a good English and was eager to explain all the historical facts about the place. We like to walk and he was explaining what we saw even with pictures and explanations that he brought with him. Ask specifically for him to the agency.

I visited Mount Koya with my amazing guide Momoyo from Osaka. The trip lasted more than eight hours. I had a really good time. Momoyo provided me with many very useful explanations and allowed me to better understand the history of Mount Koya.
