Tokyo Private Kirschblütentour mit einem Einheimischen – Picknick inklusive

It was rainy on our tour day but our guide, Lauren, did a fantastic job finding things for us to do and see which still included the beautiful cherry blossoms. We could not do our picnic, but she took us to a delicious sushi restaurant that she likes and helped us order our food. Great experience and would definitely recommend.

My tour guide, Seiichi, was amazing. He completely customized the trip as I had some very particular goals, spoke excellent English, and offered a lot of interesting insights and knowledge regarding Tokyo and also Japan as a whole. I needed to get a specific photo for a book I’m working on and Seiichi took a million photos of me and I think it is very likely that the one he took will be used for the book, he was excellent with the camera and took a lot of great photos. I also did a Sakura guided tour in Kyoto with the same company and I did not get as lucky. Seiichi was incredibly communicative both before, during, and after. Seiichi is very well-traveled and a very warm person who was fun to hang out with. I would definitely hire him again the next time I’m in Tokyo.

The experience of having a picknick under the Sakura trees was amazing and Marc did a fantastic job securing a spot for us. However, this tour is extremely overpriced. To pay more than 400 euro for a lunch is just tooo much and we even had to pay for our own metro-tickets. Big fail for Viator, but would hire Marc back privately without a doubt!

Unfortunately, the cherry blossom bloom was late this year because of the cold weather. My tour guide went out of his way to find the few blooming trees, and added some additional stops to make up for the lack of blooming trees.

The best part of my experience was the lovely, knowledgeable guide, Kyoko. Given the constant rain and the chilly weather which led to cherry blossoms not blooming she was quick to improvise and we spent a lovely time covering alternative activities which weren’t even on my list. Thank you, Kyoko

Antonio was the best guide. He was so patient and helpful. We enjoyed getting to know him an we had a wonderful time viewing the cherry blossoms.
