Once upon a time in Asakusa: Handicraft & Samurai

Tokyo

Once upon a time in Asakusa: Handicraft & Samurai

The Edo period, when Tokyo became the capital, is often seen as the peak of Japanese art and culture! Temple architecture, woodworking, woodblock prints, porcelain... I will use traditional handicrafts to illustrate the history and lifestyle of the people of Tokyo. Who were the samurai? What difference with a Ninja? How were armors crafted? I am also going to teach you all you need to know about those fierce warriors in front of a large collection of authentic weapons & armors.

“Excellent well tailored tour with our guide Yushi.”

The tour was well planned fully meeting our expectations getting all the information expected about paper making. All our questions were well answered also about the region and some facts about the Japanese culture. Yushi is an excellent guide speaking very well English and we would definitely do a tour again with her. We must especially mention the more than 80 year old Japanese lady working in the paper factory for more than 60 years who guided us through the paper making process highly motivated and making a lot of jokes with Yushi translating and explaing all the details very well. Finally this impressive lady was staying in street and greeting us until we disappeared around the corner - this was really a very very special unforgettable experience

“Fantastic Experience on the history and culture of Tokyo”

We were a group of 3 wanting to explore Tokyo's history and culture, so we had a custom tour with Atsuko where she guided our group to Senso-ji, Tokyo Sky Tree, and Edo-Tokyo Museum, where she shared detailed insights at every stop. Atsuko was very informative, knowledgeable, and engaging throughout the whole tour, explaining every location in fine detail. She also showed us how to navigate Tokyo's complex subway and train system. The experience was fun and enriching, and gave us a new appreciation of Tokyo. Highly recommend booking a custom tour and having Atsuko as your guide.

Atsuko T.

Thank you very much for taking time to write me such a fantastic review Thomas! We've just finished the tour it was so quick .I really appreciate it. I was impressed that you have a deep knowledge of Japanese history and excellent Japanese pronunciation. Your parents are so sweet and funny. I hope you have a wonderful time in Tokyo Japan!
