Hachikō Memorial Statue tours

we had a fantastic guided tour of Tokyo with Rie . We are 3 older ladies who had never been to Japan before so having a guided tour on the first day was perfect . Rie took us in the trains and showed us the main tourist sites and gave historic and interesting information as well . we had an amazing lunch too . thank you Rie for making our first day in Japan so fun and special !

Issei was a terrific guide! He showed us all around Shibuya and had great information about different spots to see, eat and experience. We highly recommend booking his tour!

great personalised tour while we filled in the day waiting for an evening flight. Jack picked us up in Chiba took our itinerary and dropped us off at Haneda. 100% recommend.

We had a group of 15 people. I thought this was a little much as not everyone can easily hear the banter in between the information spots and not everyone has the same walking pace. Our guide Giulia did amazing though. She spoke loud enough for everyone to hear and patiently waited for everyone to gather around. It was clear she was very knowledgeable on the edo period, the palace grounds, shogun Tokugawa Ieyasu and emperor Meji. The palace grounds are grand, but I think not as easy to manoeuvre for someone less able bodied. Be wary that you will have some steep inclines inside the walls. I particularly found the checkpoints, the edo castle ruins and the Japanese garden (which we could explore ourself after the tour) impressive. Giulia had a beautiful way of making me feel immersed and able to imagine what it would be like to enter the palace in the edo period. If you'd like more information about the imperial palace or the rulers of the time, I recommend taking the tour yourself!

Had the best time! They gave us a free shot of sake & some free tea/mochi at the end. Staff was friendly & the entertainers did an amazing job. We for sure recommend!

Yoda was very friendly and full of fantastic information to add to our experience. He showed us many great places to eat and we explored all the main sights of Shinjuku. I highly recommend this tour with Yoda!

We absolutely enjoyed our private group tour with Fantasy Tours at the Imperial Palace/East Gardens! It is beautiful, historical and very interesting. Our guide, Masa, was friendly and knowledgeable, and speaks English clearly (which was helpful, since none of us speak Japanese). We saw other tour groups with 20+ people, and appreciated our private, small group (6 people). We were able to easily hear and ask questions. He also gave us many options to stop for photos, and even took photos of our entire group together, which was so nice! We definitely recommend this tour!

It was our first full day in Japan, and we are very grateful to our guide Frankie for leading us on an informative tour of the Meiji Jingu shrine. We learned so much that we would have never discovered otherwise - the history of Shinto shrines, the history of *that* shrine, how important they are to this day, and so much more. It was a great investment of time and so worth it.
