Naoto was a fantastic guide, very prepared and captivating. Definitely a fun tour to get to know better the city. Super recommended!!
Mr. Yuuki A. is an excellent guide. He offered extensive historical knowledge about the area. He also gave us advice on places to eat favored by locals that tourists don’t often frequent. Thank you for the amazing experience!
Thank you Mr. Yuuki A. for a very informative tour of the area around the Imperial Palace and Tokyo Station. Our guide was an excellent teacher and came prepared with visual aids to explain this area’s history. He also provided excellent recommendations for activities and restaurants popular with locals and not widely frequented by tourists.
Keiko was an amazing tour guide. Very interesting, informative, and overall a great experience! I recommend her!
Keiko was amazing, knowledgeable, and extremely personable. Our group was a large number of undergraduate students and the tour itself was very informative, especially those interested in Tokyo/Ed history. We had plenty of stops to take photos individually and for group shots, sprinkled with funny jokes from our guide. Would recommend.
Ayaka K. — today's Tokyo tour Amazing guide. Warm, knowledgeable, genuinely excited to share the city. Tour started with an introduction to the Imperial Palace, and she tailored everything else to what we actually wanted to see. She shared so many facts I would've completely missed on my own — really brought Tokyo to life. Excellent English, great off-the-beaten-path recommendations. Would book her again without a second thought.
Amazing tour guide and the explaining was very thorough. She was very nice and informative.
Our guide Naoki was very well prepared, he brought a lot of maps and props to show us all the stuff he was talking about, which really helped to understand history of the period. We would gladly spend even 2 hours with him! We were really glad because even though the other group cancelled and didn't show up for the trip, he didn't cancel on us. We strongly recommend the trip and our guide.
This experience was great for me and my two teen daughters. Ayaka was an excellent guide, paid real attention to the girls, and kept them interested with stories, questions, and hand-made illustrations. She was personable and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for a good tour to look for her services!
Ver y informative on Tokyo histories first thought this would not be so interesting but we learned a great amount about Tokyo and Japan history
