Gift for Friends
Our friends took a recent trip to Japan and found the map and guidance in the book quite helpful. The cherry blossoms were in bloom and they were thrilled with the beauty of the trees.

More Kyoto than Osaka
I was hoping for a guide to Kyoto AND Osaka, but as the photo shows this guide is primarily focused on Kyoto with more than twice the number of pages. Osaka is just an afterthought and the information is the barest minimum. Also the general travel information for Japan is extremely skimpy, only a few pages. A decent supplemental guide if you're going to spend a lot of time (and money) in Kyoto but not what I needed.

Useless
This guide book is terrible. The maps have very few landmarks it’s very difficult to find the spots referenced in the book. I don’t recommend at all

You’ll still need a map of Osaka
The photo shows the map of Osaka that’s included. There are almost no street names listed. 🧐

A perfect guidebook to explore Kyoto
Its just the right size: pocket size to carry it around with you. Tells the top sights of kyoto first and in detail as well later if you want to see. It was very useful to me for exploring Kyoto
