    Great day in Kamakura
    Julie_B, Apr 2024
    Wonderful day in Kamakura with Brad. Highly reccomend Brad and the B,B and Z tour. Brad was very knowledgable and put together a great tour that was catered to us and our interests. Brad knew the right amount of things and the diversity of sites to see without feeling rushed. We got a big dose of history, art, and Zen - just what we were looking for- Great Buddha, temples, vegetarian lunch on the beach all wonderful, as was the green tea at the bamboo forest . Brad's upbeat energetic personality and 20+ year living in Kamakura made him an outstanding tour guide. .
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thank you kindly for your review & endorsement, Julie-san. I'm thrilled to read that you had a wonderful day in Kamakura. I had so much fun guiding you charming ladies around my adopted hometown. Lunch was much appreciated - thank you. I hope you will visit Japan again someday. Looking forward to keeping in touch. - Brad
