Coisas para fazer em Imperial Palace

Brendan was really great! I saw his tour yesterday, and I’m at the Edo-Tokyo Museum today and so much makes more sense after having done his tour of the Imperial Palace. The explanations in the museum are a bit dry and dense with facts, and I don’t have a lot of connection to annecdotes which help me remember what happened and why. Brendan’s tour really helped fill in some of that for me, and provided me a much better context. I’d recommend to anyone — do his tour first, before the museum, for greater understanding!

A comprehensive look at the Palace grounds and the history, plant life, symbols, and culture that surround it. Laura was a great guide and answered all of my questions.

Mai-san is an amazing tour guide! She is very helpful and informative, kind, and also very funny! She made the whole experience worthwhile, and her history, knowledge, and experience helped shape the whole tour into something we will never forget! Thank you, Mai-san!

We are so glad we did this tour. It’s a good way to go around Tokyo with some exercise. Our tour guides, Ken and Ray, were professionals and very helpful. I would recommend this tour for those who have not done it yet.

We were originally going to do a second shopping trip, but the weather ruined those plans. Luckily, they quickly helped us arrange a different tour in Tokyo Bay for the same day, and it was such a great experience to street kart on the roads of Tokyo and drive on the Rainbow Bridge. Our instructor, Olly, was experienced and fun to have as a guide.

Miwakosan was so kind and knowledgeable!! We had a nice and calm time with her. We were half an hour late but she still waited and extended time for us after the 3-hour period. The grounds should be historically explored, so Miwakosan did a good job explaining everything from that angle. Taking a private tour with grounds like this is a must because it's so huge. You would tend to get lost in large groups, so this was much needed to explore such an area. She had laminated booklets too!! The dedication to our understanding was so moving. We really loved her effort and personality. Thank you so very much, Miwakosan, we miss you already!

First and foremost, I want to express my deepest respect and gratitude to our guide, "DAI," who led us on a wonderful private tour, despite our limited Japanese and English. We initially thought it would be a group tour, so we went without much pressure, just hoping to enjoy the sights. However, perhaps due to the hot weather, the other team didn't show up, and it unexpectedly turned into a private tour. We were quite flustered by the language barrier, as the guide kept explaining things, but we were deeply touched by his kindness and detailed explanations as we diligently tried to understand with a translator. Thanks to him, we were so engrossed and enjoyed the tour so much that we didn't even realize two hours had passed. It will surely be a lifelong memory. Mr. DAI is incredibly knowledgeable about Japanese history and possesses a great sense of mission. He also took wonderful photos for us and introduced us to great local restaurants and attractions. Meeting him was truly a stroke of luck. Thank you once again. -Choi Hong-man

George was an excellent guide and so knowledgable of everything he showed us. He has a fun personality and makes everyone feel well taken care of!

Our tour of the Imperial Palace and gardens was wonderful. Our guide, Hiro, was a gentleman—knowledgeable, kind, caring, and compassionate—and made the tour an absolute pleasure. Highly recommended.
