Worth visiting! - We had the nicest tour guide to show us the lovely town Kurashiki is. Definitely recommend, especially if you want to experience some quiet after visiting hectic Osaka.

Fantastic shopping and day adventure - Yoko is a fantastic guide! Yoko was very accommodating and met us at the train and took great care of us all day! We had a wonderful lunch at her suggested restaurant and then set out on our day to Kojima. We were very impressed that Yoko had scouted the jeans Street prior to our tour and showed us the best shops. This tour from Osaka for young people would be so successful. We had a fantastic day! We would recommend Yoko and the tour to everyone!
