Mouloud does not just guide us, he tells us the historical background of Mt Yoshino and how some of the Japanese culture and history relates to the mountain, temples and shrines. It was educational. Mouloud was also patience with us as we have a member of the group who couldn’t move as fast as the others. Overall, it was a good day trip. Tiring but enjoyable. Thanks Mouloud. TC
Thank you TC for booking my tour and for your great review! I am glad you liked the tour even if it was tiring. I hope to see you again!
I had an excellent half day tour with Mouloud in Nara. We visit many places including Kasuga Taisha Shrine, Todaiji, Bald Mountain and the Nara park. I learned a lot from Mouloud's explanation about the above places and they made me appreciate Nara more. I especially remember his guidance on how to feed Nara's deer. Thank you so much for making my trip to Nara enjoyable and I'd definitely recommend him as a guide to everyone who wants to visit Nara.

We spend a great day with Mouloud! Consideration was given to our preferences, for example we made a Sake tasting. Mouloud showed us the most important sights and he know everything well. Because he knew japanese well we did not have to worry about anything. In the end we had a great Kobe beef meal.
