Perfect Day in Tokyo

We had a Perfect Tour Day with Hiro, our guide! Hiro made sure our first full day in Japan was magical from the phenomenal views at the top of the Skytree to experiencing TeamLab Planets. His knowledge and professionalism were exceptional! We highly recommend this tour.

Tokyo one day tour with guide & private car

We took a car tour of Tokyo's famous tourist spots with a friendly guide. The guide was friendly, knowledgeable, and not pushy, which was great. Although we traveled in the rain in the morning, the private car pickup and drop-off were precise and we didn't experience any inconvenience.

Customized Tokyo tour with guide and driver

Expensive tour but to be fair, Tokyo is not cheap. Had a great guide, Tomo, and a driver. Very comfortable, spacious van. Tomo was very pleasant. She customized our visit. Even took us on a bullet train ride because my 85 year-old Mom was curious. We conquered the Shibuya crossing in a wheelchair. I highly recommend!
