Tokyo Castle & Imperial PalaceーShogun Walking Tour

First and foremost, I want to express my respect and gratitude to our guide, "DAI," who led us and provided a wonderful private tour, despite our limited Japanese and English skills. We initially thought it would be a group tour, so we went without much expectation, simply hoping to enjoy the sights. However, due to the hot weather, the other team didn't show up, and it unexpectedly turned into a private tour. We were a bit flustered by the language barrier, as the guide kept explaining things, but we were deeply touched by his kind and detailed explanations, which he patiently provided as we diligently tried to understand using a translator. Thanks to him, we were so engrossed and enjoyed the tour so much that the two hours flew by, creating a memory we'll cherish forever. DAI is incredibly knowledgeable about Japanese history and possesses a great sense of duty. He also took fantastic photos for us and recommended local restaurants and attractions. Meeting him was truly a stroke of luck. Thank you once again. -Choi Hong-man

The guide, Koyo, has done a very good job. He provided a lot of detailed explanations on th shogun & Edo period and comparisons between the Edo Castle during the Edo period and the current Imperial Palace. It is really worth the price. 👍🏻👍🏻

I had a great time with this tour. My guide Fumi was very knowledgeable and provided us with a great overview of the Imperial Palace and the Japanese Shogunate history. I can't recommend this guided tour highly enough.

Absolutely great tour of such a fantastic historical site. Mei was a wonderful tour guide, who was engaging and she made an effort to ensure everyone was included..

Yuuki was an amazing tour guide. Her knowledge of the local culture and region was fantastic. Yuuki was friendly and helpful very happy to take our photos and full of knowledge of the local history. I would highly recommend this tour

Our tour guide was a Japanese young and enthusiastic guy named Kuma. He met us at the designated location early and spoke very good English. I would say he spoke the best English out of all the tours I booked with Klook while in Japan. He was very detailed and took time to explain Japan’s history, culture, and about the Imperial Palace. Unforunately, I had to leave early due to some other engagements. Next time I am back to Tokyo, I will try and redo this walking tour and hope the guide is Kuma san. Arigato Kuma san!

Guide: Shin was an excellent guide with excellent English. He knew how to guide us, avoiding the sun and selecting the best spots for incredible photos. He was super friendly and knowledgeable – 10 out of 10! Attractions along the way: The palace is beautiful and 100% worth visiting.

Our tour guide, Ai, was very kind and knowledgeable. We noticed she made sure to speak to everyone in our group, and encouraged us all to mingle while teaching us both about history and culture. Her insights into how samurai culture influenced modern day Japan was a wonderful surprise and very interesting. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tokyo, it's definitely a great find.

Dai was a great guide, quite a good tour, interesting facts and history. The heat was a lot during summer in the middle of the day, pick a morning or late afternoon tour and bring water, hat, umbrella, fan etc. The tour was well planned and had good timing

We had a fantastic experience with our tour guide. K is very knowledgeable, friendly, and organized, making the trip both enjoyable and informative. His passion for the local culture and history truly enhanced our visit. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a memorable and well-guided tour.
