Great tour that covers major areas of Tokyo - This was a great walking tour of Tokyo along with metro rides to move between areas. The guide was very knowledgeable and entertaining. I was the only one on the tour and it was cold and rainy but she did a great job and was very responsive to any questions I had.

Great Time in Tokyo - Suzana was an amazing guide. Very knowledgeable. From fun facts about each place we visited to getting on the train. I learned so much on this tour about the history and culture of Japan. To finding some hiding gems along the way. I would 100% recommend this tour to all my friends. Especially if it’s Suzana leading the way.

Fun day trip - Elena was awesome, it turned out to be a really small group just 2 in total so it was unexpectedly personal. She was very knowledgeable and made sure we had fun

A super tour of the main Tokyo sights - We thought that our tour, led by Seiji, gave us a good variety of sights and lots of interesting historical information. The conversations about today’s Japanese culture were a very interesting bonus. The pace of the tour was fine for us and we enjoyed the lunch and afternoon tea breaks. The training on using the Tokyo metro/subway was helpful too!

Fun times around Tokyo - Very fun time getting to see several parts of Tokyo with our guide, Akari! She was super friendly and knowledgeable about things to do and see in the area. She even took us to several extra activities, like the TeamLabs popup and some funny purikura photo booths. I recommend this tour!

Wonderful walking tour of Japan, insight from the old to the new Japan. - Our guide Mary was wonderful! She gave us a great background of the Japanese culture and history. Mary explained customs, beliefs and gave us insight and understanding of the Japanese people. Having such an knowledable guide made this a very eye opening experience. The itinerary was a good overview of Japan from the past to the present. Be forwarned, there is lots of walking,!!! (we did about 17,000 steps) may not seem alot for younger people, but we were in our late 60's. Mary was very considerate with resting and bathroom stops. Overall, I'd say book this excursion, and hopefully you'll get Mary.

Deep Dive into Tokyo City - It was a fantastic activity with the my trip friends and with our guide Suzana. We have made a deep dive into the center of Tokyo city and learn the sights with from different perspectives. Even we have seem the railway lines of Tokyo is a great experience. I recommend this tour to the new commers to Tokyo to learn better the city from a snapshot to detail.
