What an adventure of a lifetime! Kohei Nishido’s genuinely kind, responsive, flexible, and insightful nature made our travel encounters with Japan profoundly life changing. With his heartwarming ability to intertwine the customs and culture of the people with respect to the history and geographical natural beauty of Japan, unique experiences always seemed just around the corner! Our deepest gratitude to all our fellow traveler's who also gave us memories that will last a lifetime. Thank you for celebrating our Wedding Anniversary with us!
