If you’re visiting Kyoto and want more than just beautiful sights, if you truly want to understand this incredible city, then Makoon is the guide for you. From the moment our tour began, Makoon’s passion for his hometown was immediately evident. His deep knowledge of Kyoto’s rich history, culture, and traditions brought every location to life. He doesn’t just recite facts, he tells stories. Whether it was an ancient shrine tucked away from the crowds, the meaning behind a seemingly simple garden design, or how seasons influence Kyoto’s aesthetic and spiritual life, Makoon delivered it all with enthusiasm and heartfelt pride. He has a remarkable ability to tailor the experience to his guests, answering questions thoughtfully and connecting historical context to modern-day Kyoto in a way that felt both engaging and meaningful. We left the tour not just with beautiful photos, but with a much deeper appreciation for the city and its people.

Makoon, isn’t just a guide, he’s a storyteller, a historian and a passionate ambassador of Kyoto. Highly recommended for anyone who want their trip to be unforgettable.
