Collen is a dedicated caring and most importantly fun guide. He read our little group perfectly and brought a bunch of value added nuance to our time together. He is witty, organized, effective and above all one of the nicest fellow you can ever expect to meet. Yes, I can highly recommend his specialized services. You won’t go wrong, we really got bang for the buck!
Our all day customized tour of Tokyo was beyond expectations. Collen was prompt, informative, accomodating and very kind. His experience and knowledge led to fun exploring. He knew when to guide and when to allow us to venture. Add this to your list to all first time visitors, you’ll want to return. Also, a comfortable and safe ride experience throughout Tokyo.
Our host for this tour was Colin. We had the most wonderful day with Colin showcasing the best Tokyo has to offer. We would highly recommend him, such a fun, happy and knowledgeable man. Our sincere thanks for such a memorable day Colin, from Helen, Laney, Jan and Dave.
Prosper was just Excellent and exceptional. Will recommend him to others without any hesitancy. His English was very good . You should recommend him other Tourists looking for English Speaking Guides .
The best option for limited time in Tokyo Excellent value for money. Couldn’t have seen everything on our own. I would absolutely recommend our driver Collen. He reassuringly contacted us the night before to confirm pick up and check for any requests. He was knowledgeable, friendly and good company. My husband is blind and Collen was very considerate. We saw everything we wanted to see at a nice pace. Had a lovely lunch in a ramen kitchen near senso-ji temple. Until you get here you don’t appreciate the scale of the city and how far apart the sites are. This took the stress out of trying to get to everything to fit it all in.
Tour covered 4 main areas - Tsukiji fish market Imperial Palace Sensoji temple in Asakusa And the Meiji Jingu forest shrine. Everyone had a great time while seeing the major spots around Tokyo with some time to pick up snacks at the street stall along the way.
As first time visitors to Tokyo we were looking for a full day tour of the city’s highlights. This tour was perfect for us. Collen from DreamsEscape was our driver/guide for the day. He picked us up at our hotel and went over the day’s tentative itinerary. Collen was very friendly and informative. He let us set the pace as we visited the many sites around town. We never felt rushed, a very relaxing day, and that is saying a lot after logging in over 14,000 steps! We started the day with a photo stop at Tokyo Tower, such a beautiful spot - the photo will definitely make our Christmas Card this year! During the course of the day we strolled through Tsukiji Market; visited the peaceful Meiji Jingu Shrine; drove around the Imperial Palace and Gardens; walked the Odaiba Skywalk and saw the Statue of Liberty and giant Transformer; experienced Shibuya Crossing; Asakusa District (Sensoji Temple); and went to the top observation deck of Tokyo Sky Tree. We were so fortunate to be in the right place at the right time, as we got to watch a few performances in the annual Awa Odori festival. What a great day! Arigato Collen for sharing your city with us.
Very good driver very knowledgeable friendly amazing experience overall 10 out of 10 would recommend to all of my friends.
Prosper was wonderful. He was informative and had great energy. Asset to you bushes.. Prosper took to many of the major attractions in Tokyo.
Mr. Pee was an excellent tour guy. I highly recommend it if you want to get a better experience. They picked us up by a hotel near Disneyland which was wonderful since we are outside of main Tokyo. He accommodated to our needs since I had 2 kids.
