We had an amazing one-day tour in Asakusa with Michiko! She was absolutely wonderful—so kind, sweet, and welcoming. She shared so many interesting facts and stories with us and took us to beautiful places around the area. Michiko was incredibly flexible and open to anything we wanted to see or do. The food spot she recommended was also delicious! Our whole family, including my husband and my child, truly loved this experience. It was a perfect day, and we highly recommend touring with her!
This tour was the perfect way to begin our journey in Japan. Eriko is an exceptional guide with outstanding knowledge of Japanese history and culture. Visiting temples with her completely changed the experience — she explained the meaning behind each ritual, the symbolism, and the stories behind every corner, allowing us to appreciate these sacred places with proper understanding and respect. It made everything far more meaningful. Beyond her expertise, Eriko is incredibly kind, attentive, and thoughtful. She offered excellent recommendations for food and shopping, always aligned with our interests. Her warmth and professionalism made the day smooth, enriching, and truly memorable. We highly recommend both this tour and Eriko as a guide. It is an outstanding introduction to Tokyo and a wonderful way to start your adventure in Japan.
kyoko is a friend we glad to have in Tokyo. This is how good she is. always accommodating and having our interest at heart. kyoko answers every questions we have and make sure all the places we want to go are available by calling ahead. she even uses her own vouchers for our purchases so we can save some money. this is what someone who cares will do. she and the team even checked in and did research before our trip to ensure everything is smooth. just go to this agency and kyoko when you need a personalized tour. you will be in the right hands. thank you again kyoko and team.
Narita was the best guide EVER! He was very polite, respectful and knowledgeable. The tour itself had an excellent variety or current and historical culture. I would recommend to anyone visiting Tokyo!!!
A Must-Do Tour for First-Time Visitors to Tokyo! If it's your first time in Japan, like it was for us, this tour is an absolute must! Kaori was an exceptional guide who took us to some of Tokyo’s top highlights while sharing fascinating stories and historical insights along the way. She went above and beyond to make our experience smooth and memorable. Knowing we needed Halal food, Kaori thoughtfully messaged us restaurant recommendations near our hotel both before and after the tour so we could enjoy even more of Japan’s amazing cuisine. What truly stood out was her kindness and attention to detail. She made sure my mother, who uses a walking aid, was comfortable throughout the day. Kaori also offered to take all our photos at the landmarks so we could fully immerse ourselves in the experience. If you're looking for a friendly, knowledgeable guide with great local insights (and especially if you need Halal options) this tour is the perfect choice!
Narita san was amazing. We booked a private tour for my wife and two kids (3 and 1) knowing we would need to move slower. When he confirmed our tour via WhatsApp, I mentioned we had two little ones and wanted a stress free slow pace day and was okay if we couldn’t make all the stops. He gave us just that. He planned a child friendly tour, knew where all the elevators were, and made sure our must stops were made. Our request was to buy a new chef knife, custom chopsticks, sushi, and good snacks and as much of the tour we could do in time with our being rushed and having plenty of potty breaks, and breast feeding breaks. He did exactly that. So thankful for his guidance and patience. Deffintitly recommend, especially if you have young children.
Our guide was amazing! This was a private tour and we were able to see so much in one day. There was a lot of walking but we saw a lot that way. We were able to ask him questions about so many different things and he helped us learn a lot. He talked to us about the background story of things we were seeing and who people were. We definitely hope to book a tour and have him as our guide again. He even took pictures of us and sent us the link. That was nice because it’s often hard to get family pictures of a whole background and everyone together.
We had such a lovely tour with Taiga. It was really great to have the option to go at our own pace, peak into interesting shops and make some spontaneous changes to the itinerary (like a 25 minute stop at an otter cafe for my son) while still seeing so many of the iconic sights and neighborhoods of Tokyo. The day was also so much more relaxing having Taiga do all the navigation and not have to be looking at google maps constantly. I can’t recommend Taiga highly enough as a guide. He was a delightful, interesting, and entertaining companion. This is a fantastic tour for newcomers to Tokyo.
This tour was great! Michiko was our guide and was absolutely wonderful. She was very knowledgeable, brought us to some amazing sites, took our pictures, accommodated the tour as the day progressed and was a joy to be around. For anyone hoping to get a sense of Tokyo with an incredible guide, I would highly recommend this tour!
It was a very interesting and informative excursion. The guide Fumiko arrived on time at our hotel and we followed different sights. She told very interesting facts from the history of the places visited. Fumiko is a very kind and positive woman. She gave my son origami. It was very nice of her. Thank you very much for the excursion and unforgettable impressions.
