“Yokohama was better than I expected because of Kaneo”
Kaneo-San was very professional, resourceful and knowledgeable about the history of the places we visited. He helped us select some of the most interesting and beautiful places to see in Yokohama, one of them was the Sankeien Garden. It is a must see garden with beautiful ponds, different species of cherry blossom trees, historical houses representing different periods in Japan brought from different parts of Japan such as old farm houses, tea ceremonial house and the oldest temple constructed in 1400s brought in from Kyoto.. it is an open air museum ! Last but not least, Kaneo-San went out of his way to help my sister to pick up a purchase she has made from the Red Brick Warehouse! He was so flexible with the itinerary and adjusted it based on the weather. We had such a good time with Kaneo-San and grateful for his guiding. We definitely will recommend him to anyone who wants a competent, kind and reliable guide to show them Yokohama.
“A wonderful day with a wonderful guide”
Takako was waiting for in our hotel lobby and greeted all 4 of us warmly. She explained our itinerary and led us on our way to a packed first day. She was so accommodating and made sure she found the escalators/elevator in all the train stations when she saw I was struggling with the station stairs. Takako was absolutely delightful with a great sense of humour. She was very caring and by the end of our day it felt like she was a family friend. Her historical knowledge was excellent and was so inspiring to listen to. I would thoroughly recommend her as a fantastic choice to introduce you to Tokyo. Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. Warm regards Yvonne, Jo, Julie and Mark.
“Excellent Kanazawa 101 tour ”
My husband and I had a wonderful time with Lucy this morning. Since she is from Europe, her tour is perfectly aligned with our (US) perspective and interests, and she speaks perfect English! Also she is super friendly and has a great knowledge of Kanazawa and Japanese history and culture. We learned so much from her while are not overwhelmed by too much information that could happen for a scholastic tour guide. So we highly recommend her if you are interested in Kanazawa 101 tour!
