Great experience - Thank you to Shuji, our guide, who had prepared very well as we were keen to understand the history of Japan. He contacted prior to our trip to understand what we were looking for and he delivered a tour that was fun and informative.

Amazing guide - Sachi was our guide on the 1st day in Japan. She picked us up at the hotel and explained everything, including how the transport works and helped us get the travel card. She is really nice and fun and has a lot of knowledge about history and traditions, and she communicates them very enthusiastically. She even took us to a Japanese restaurant where nothing was in English, and it was a real experience where she even taught us our first words in Japanese ❤️ She enjoys her job, and that's something you can feel. Without a doubt, we would recommend her!

One day private tour of Tokyo - We had a great time with Yuki. She was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of interesting and cool stuff about Tokyo. She was very patient with our two kids and took us to several places that tailored to their age and interest.

Josh in Tokyo - Did this tour with Kris. He was a nice and pleasant guy but couldn’t keep up the pace and kept getting lost at the different subway exits. He also really couldn’t take photos well. He seemed very new to being a tour guide. At times he was also hard to understand. I think the tour would be much better with someone younger and faster.
