Australia

Back in the early 80s, right after waving goodbye to school life, I went on a crazy adventure—hitchhiking solo around Australia for 14 months. It wasn't just about the sights and miles; it was about the people I met. Aussies are a generous bunch, they took me in like a lost cousin. I also hooked up with fellow travelers from every corner of the globe. Those months were like a masterclass in life, giving me a whole new perspective and opening up a world of experiences. Fast forward to today, and I'm not the hitchhiker anymore; I'm the one behind the wheel. No, not a taxi driver, but a private driver guide showing international visitors around the natural wonders of Australia. It's like life's way of saying, "Hey, time to give back!" :) Matt

I am a local born and bred tour guide offering visitors an extensive knowledge of Sydney and its surrounds. I offer day tours that not only incorporate the essential sites and hidden gems but also provide a greater understanding of how this city has evolved from its Aboriginal and colonial heritage to its modern-day multicultural heartbeat. All tours are taken by myself using either a 15-seat Mercedes Benz Sprinter or 14 seat Toyota Hiace Commuter vehicle. All tours are fully customisable and include a half-day and full-day Sydney city tour as well as a full-day Blue Mountains tour with Kangaroo and Koala experience.

A fun tour for families! Highly recommended

We are a family of travelling from Australia and did a 4 hour tour of Harajuku and Shibuya area with Dan. Dan is a great guide and was very thoughtful to ask about our children’s personalities and interests in advance so he could tailor our tour accordingly. We had a great time with Dan who was terrific with our kids and helped them learn some Japanese and introduced them to Japanese children’s games and treats. We really appreciated his knowledge and insights into Japan culture. I highly recommend Dan’s tour guide services! Thanks for a great tour Dan.

Fun night out

This was a fun tour but pretty pricy. Tim was an excellent guide very knowledgeable and friendly. We enjoyed the history of the different back alley ways. However the price quickly adds up as no food or beverages are included (we knew this and that we needed to pay for him as well). Tim orders for you so you don’t know the price until settling your bill. I would set a budget next time. It was our last night so we felt it was good fit.

Dear Laurel, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. It was such a pleasure spending the evening with you and Liam. His curiosity about Japan and all the great questions he asked made the tour enjoyable for me as well. Regarding the cost, I wanted to clarify that it was a private tour, and the visits to the two izakaya pubs and the bar were entirely optional. Based on our conversation, we chose places that matched your preferences, and the prices were transparent from the start. We all agreed on the orders, and I hope the authentic, non-touristy spots we visited provided a unique and local experience. If price had been a concern, I would have been happy to adjust the itinerary, perhaps with a stop for a casual bowl of ramen instead. My goal was always for you both to have a great experience, and I felt that you and Liam were enjoying the evening, the food, and the interactions with the locals. I value your feedback and will strive to make my tours an excellent experience for all guests. I would love to know if there’s anything else I could have done to improve your experience. Thank you again for choosing the tour. Best regards, Tim

Toledo: A Cultural Pearl of Spanish History

Laura is a 5 star guide for Toledo who clearly demonstrates a heartfelt enthusiasm for her native city. Her level of expertise is top notch and her command of English is excellent. Toledo is a cultural pearl in Spain and she can lead you through the highlights. Above all, her demeanor is very calm and totally professional. You are in good hands with Laura.

Great Tour!

I booked this for my parents who were visiting Tokyo. Nobu was responsive and told me everything I needed to know so I could relay the information to my parents. My parents said he was very knowledgeable about the sites they were at and enjoyed the experience. Would highly recommend this tour to anyone that is interested in experiencing Mt Fuji!

Nobu S.

Thank you very much for your review. I am glad to know that your parents enjoyed my tour. There are several good places in this area, but not so easy to go around in the limited time. Now we, guides, can drive a car during the tour,so we can visit those spots much easier than before. Thank you again for booking me for your parents. Nobu
