We had a great tour with Loc, which turned out to be a private tour because the other group did not show up. Even thoigh we had heavy rain not enticing to Sakura watching, Loc made the tour entertaining and educational. The end at the cenetery and old houses gave is a glimpse into history that we would otherwise not have had.
Our guide Miyu spoke very well and provided the history behind Cherry Blossom trees and especially the history of Ueno Park. Very interesting. We enjoyed our time with Miyu.
A wonderful trip. I really enjoyed myself.
We had a great cherry blossom tour with interesting information about the cherry blossom but also about Japan abd Tokio
Emi led one of the most memorable experiences of my trip. Her knowledge of Japans history, culture, and hidden sakura spots made the tour feel both personal and special. She guided us to the best viewing areas, including quieter paths away from the crowds, and shared stories that brought each location to life. Her warmth stood out throughout the tour. She took time with each guest, offered to take photos, and made sure everyone felt comfortable and unrushed. The photos she helped me capture under the blossoms are some of my favorites from Japan.
We had a wonderful time and experienced the Cherry Blossoms in several locations. Emi was an excellent guide who brought her passion for the city and shared a good amount of history of the areas and shrines we visited. Highly recommend this tour.
We had a great tour with Loc who showed us not only great spots to enjoy the cherry blossoms but also explained the history of the places. The cenetery and small streets around it had a magical atmosphere.
A very nice tour at the cherry blossom time. A recommendation for those who would like to experience the hotspot Ueno Park and the lesser-known Yanaka Cemetery at cherry blossom time with a great guide. Thanks to Emi!
Amazing walking tour at the peak of cherry blossom season! Emi was lovely, easy going, warm and informative
Thank you for sharing your experience. We are so glad that Emi’s warm and informative approach helped make your cherry blossom tour so memorable. Timing a visit for the peak of the season can be a challenge, so we are thrilled that you had such a lovely experience with her. We will be sure to pass your kind words along to Emi!
Great tour with Ms. Reiko! We went to see all different beautiful spots with cherry blossoms.
