Great experience! - We were able to enjoy our trip around Matsushima Bay with Koh-san. We took a boat tour and went to Zuiganji temple. Both experiences were exciting and we were able to have great discussions with Koh-san. We would love to go back again!

Shrines and Temples - Enjoyed the shrine and temple the most. Riko was very pleasant and worked hard to get us around in a short time. Could have used a bit more Japanese life facts, ie: cultural, life style etc. we like to learn about the country we are visiting
