Japan Tour Reviews

“A Day in Tokyo with Ken and Satchi”
It was a wonderful day. With Ken acting as guide and Satchi driving, the day set up perfectly. We arrived at each location easily and were picked up when we were picked up when we were ready to move on. There were no delays lookinng for parking. Ken was very informative about each location and its history. We were able customize an itinerary prior to the day. They met us at the cruise terminal with a car that easily held our luggage. After a five hour tour, they dropped us at the airport. Ken took photos along the way and emailed them to us as a momento. It was the perfect way to use the time between the ship's arrival and our evening departure for Tokyo. I highly recomend Ken and Satchi.

“Amazing experience with Akira”
We simply had an amazing day with Akira as first time visitors of Japan. We had a few locations we wanted to visit in Kyoto, like the Monkey Park, and Akira was able to take us to those places and be a tremendously fun and informative guide throughout it all. He even recommended his favorite local ramen place where we had a fantastic lunch. We will look back on our visit to Japan with great fondness and a wonderful memory in Kyoto, thanks to Akira. He will turn a good trip great, and a great trip unforgettable.
