Japan Private Car Tours

“Excellent 2 days in and around Tokyo”

Kota was our guide and he was very helpful from our first online planning conversations and he went out of his way to deliver all we planned. Day 1 was in and around Tokyo. We went to a Samurai museum and a major Shinto shrine. After the temple we had our first experience of eel. We went to a craft market to find a mask for our son and we were soon after taken to a post office to post them home. We checked out the national parliament building and Olympic stadium. We were let out at Shabuya crossing to experience the crowds. In the evening a Yayabune cruise on Tokyo Bay which was taco is and fun. Day 2 took us to try and see Mt Fuji. The weather was as against us but Kota did his best to ensure we saw as much of the mounta N as possible and also found us a Japanese winery and a great lunch spot. He then took us to catch the Shinkansen bullet train. It made it ack to Tokyo in 50 minutes whilst Kota battled the return traffic for 3 hours. Kota and his company are friendly helpful and easy to talk to. Kotas English is excellent. We would highly recommend him to any travellers to Japan especially first timers like us

“Initial D Tour”

We enjoyed the tour. I was disappointed that the shops at the lake were all closed as well as the shops and restaurants in the onsen area. I wish it would have been communicated that because we were going outside of the summer season (by 1 week) that they would be closed when we went. Andy did show us a really great restaurant with amazing food. The museum was really great too!

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, and I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed the overall tour, the museum, and the local restaurant! I sincerely apologize for the disappointment regarding the closed shops and restaurants around the lake and onsen area. You are completely right—I should have communicated beforehand that many local businesses adjust their operating hours or close down right after the peak summer season ends. Providing clear expectations is an important part of planning, and I regret that this caught you by surprise. I really appreciate you bringing this to my attention. I will make sure to update future itineraries and inform guests ahead of time about seasonal closures during seasonal transitions so this doesn't happen again. Thank you again for your valuable feedback, and I hope the rest of your travel went smoothly! Thanks Andy

“Amazing Initial D related places tour with Rieko S”

My teenager and I had an excellent tour with Rieko S. She took her time to communicate helpful and important information, suggestions and plans before and during the booking process. Rieko worked with our schedule in such a perfect way to cover our interests. She is very professional, kind, knowledgeable, thoughtful and friendly. It rained a little bit and she had 2 umbrellas with her for us to use. We truly enjoyed her tour. My son was very impressed. Our time flew by so fast, Rieko did an excellent job! Thank you so much! We plan on returning and using her services again for sure. I highly recommend her to others!!! Thank you!

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I’m so glad to know you and your son enjoyed the tour. Although the day started with rain, we were lucky as the heavy rain turned calmer around lunchtime, and we could enjoy our afternoon schedule in a comfortable temperature. Since time was limited, there are more places I’d like to share, not only Initial D locations but also places with natural beauty and soothing vibes. I hope I can take you on another tour that you’ll enjoy someday.
