Danny was great, the tour was as advertised, self guided and we got some great cherry blossom shots. I do wish we spent more time at Ueno park vs the last 2 stops as there seemed to be more to do there. I do feel like the cost was a bit high for what it was. We did get lunch added but otherwise we were essentially just paying for transportation to the parks, which you might be better off just taking the train to visit if you want to save money. It was $50 less for the trip I bought through the same company to drive us 2.5 hours away to Mt. Fuji.
