Noriko is friendly and kind. She provided me tons of info that I wouldn't be able to know if I had only walked around on my own. Impressive walking tour.

Noriko was great! We took the day trip to Mount Koya, including a first stop at the Niufutsuhime Shrine, where we learnt a lot on Kodo Daishi ;o). We then made our way to Mount Koya, where Noriko brought us on a walking tour from the main gate all the way to the Ofokuin. She was very knowledgable, and provided us with a lot of tips we probably wouldn't have known if we did this on our own. We got to see a lot of things that made the experience a great one! We would most definitely get her to bring us around again when we visit Wakayama again!Noriko is an amazing guide, she took me around Wakayama Castle and gave me an in depth tour of the castle and the surrounding grounds.

Noriko is an amazing guide, she took me around Wakayama Castle and gave me an in depth tour of the castle and the surrounding grounds. I learned so much from her about the details of the rocks around the castle yard as well as the rich history of the Edo period and Wakayama Castle. She covers much more than you could ever learn about trying to navigate through the history of the culture alone, plus she adds in so much detail about the Japanese families that ruled at that time to give you a full rich history of Wakayama's past. Noriko is super friendly and kind, you won't find a better person to show you around the castle or the Wakayama area. I highly recommend any tour that you can take with Noriko, in fact I'm back in Japan right now to visit with her again right now. She takes the history seriously and is super intelligent and helpful with any questions you may have! I would give her a rating of 10 out of 5 stars if I could.My bestfriend found the Koyasan tour hidden in their website and I´m glad she did. Noriko is a very accommodating and comforting guide.

My bestfriend found the Koyasan tour hidden in their website and I´m glad she did. Noriko is a very accommodating and comforting guide. She made us feel like just walking with your kind aunt who tolerates your requests. Koyasan has been a spiritual tour for us, we visited the main gate, walked the 2-km trail of Okunoin cemetery and had a hearty lunch at her fave tonkotsu place. We learned a lot about Kobo Daishi, and the harmonious coexistence of Shintoism and Buddhism in Japan. She also gifted us with some sweets after the tour, isn´t she the sweetest? We highly recommend this tour and Noriko especially. :)I had the pleasure of spending the day with Noriko from WAK Guide while I was in Kyoto during Golden week!

I had the pleasure of spending the day with Noriko from WAK Guide while I was in Kyoto during Golden week! I was so glad to have the opportunity to experience this lovely city with someone so familiar with it and the local culture. Noriko was full of so much information, pleasant to talk and walk with and even helped me with purchasing some gifts to take home. I learned much more about the Japanese culture, temples/religion and food than I thought I already knew. I would love to go back and explore the Wakayama Prefecture with her. I will definitely make another trip to Japan and be connecting with WAK Guide again!I contacted WAK Guide to ask for a customized tour in Wakayama. Noriko replied and gave wonderful suggestions.

I contacted WAK Guide to ask for a customized tour in Wakayama. Noriko replied and gave wonderful suggestions. She made all preparations for our trip to be enjoyable, which is over and beyond what we have expected. She excels in her work, and puts all efforts into it, which we saw and deeply appreciate. It was an excellent tour, and we are very happy to have Noriko as our guide for one full day. I highly suggest WAK Guide to those who are visiting wakayama.
