Yoyogi 1st National Gymnasium túrák

Egy 15 fős csoportunk volt. Először azt hittem, hogy ez egy kicsit sok, mivel nem mindenki hallja jól a beszélgetést az információs pontok között, és nincs mindenkinek ugyanolyan a járási tempója. A idegenvezetőnk, Giulia azonban csodálatos munkát végzett. Elég hangosan beszélt ahhoz, hogy mindenki hallja, és türelmesen megvárta, amíg mindenki összegyűlt. Nyilvánvaló volt, hogy nagyon nagy tudással rendelkezik az Edo-korszaka, a palota területe, Tokugawa Ieyasu sógun és Meiji császár vonatkozásában. A palota területe hatalmas, de szerintem nem olyan könnyen bejárható a mozgáskorlátozottak számára. Érdemes odafigyelni arra, hogy a falakon belül lesznek meredek emelkedők. Különösen lenyűgözőnek találtam az ellenőrzőpontokat, az Edo vár romjait és a japán kertet (amelyet a túra után egyénileg is felfedezhettünk). Giulia csodálatos módon elérte, hogy beleéljem magam a helyzetbe, és el tudjam képzelni, milyen lehetett az Edo-korszakban belépni a palotába. Ha többet szeretne megtudni a császári palotáról vagy az akkori uralkodókról, ajánlom, hogy vegye részt ön is a túrán!

Nagyszerűen éreztük magunkat! A végén kaptunk egy ingyen szakét és némi ingyen teát/mochit. A személyzet barátságos volt, és a szórakoztatók is fantasztikus munkát végeztek. Mindenképpen ajánljuk!

Joe, az idegenvezetőnk nagyon tájékozott és rendkívül barátságos volt. Ajánlom a Joe-val való túrát, nagyszerű kezdet azoknak a turistáknak, akik először járnak Japánban. Joe mindent megkönnyített, ami szórakoztatóvá tette a piaci élményünket. Semmi stressz. Köszönjük, Joe!

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!

This was our first trip to Japan, and we wanted to do something special on our very first day in Tokyo. This tour was the perfect choice, and our guide, Hiro, was absolutely wonderful! He met us right at the designated meeting spot and was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the Imperial Palace. He made sure everyone was comfortable throughout the tour and was always happy to allow time for breaks and rest stops when needed. The gardens are absolutely beautiful, and we especially enjoyed getting to see some of the original historic buildings. It was a wonderful way to start our trip and learn more about Japan’s history and culture. If you’re visiting Tokyo, we highly recommend this tour. And if you’re lucky enough to have Hiro as your guide, you’re in for an extra-special experience!

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.

we had a group of 7 people, were felt like the perfect amount of people. I was solo on this tour, but never felt left out. Part because of the other nice people taking the tour, but also because of our lovely guide Manny. Manny told us about Harajuku before we headed to the Meji Jinku shrine grounds. Manny was very knowledgeable about the shinto religion, customs and rituals. The history and customs were presented in a fun and informative way. Overal, the tour felt very in line with the connections and knowledge emperor Meji is known for. Definitely take the tour if you are thinking about it. The grounds are very impressive. We were lucky to be here on a beautifully sunny day, which meant we were able to witness a few weddings happen on the shrine grounds as well as live Gagaku in the centre of the shrine grounds. I am very glad I decided to take this tour. Thank you fellow travelers and our guide Many for the beautiful experience.

Midori was an amazing guide! 5/5 stars and is a definite must for anyone visiting Tokyo. One of my favourite experiences so far. She was very informative and made the experience very enjoyable. It was great to meet a real life Geisha and learn all about her life and see traditional dances and play traditional games. Midori also took photos for us so we didn’t have to worry about that and could enjoy the whole experience in real time!

Honestly this tour was great! We went to the 10am tour, I would go earlier if you can to the 8am tour before it gets super congested. lots of food portion wise, so go hungry
