“Odawara Tour ”
We had a great experience working with Yuka to arrange a custom tour from Tokyo to Odawara Castle. She was incredibly helpful in organizing all the details, including our bullet train ride, making the entire process smoothly. The tour itself was fantastic! We learned so much about the history of Odawara Castle and truly enjoyed exploring the Samurai Museum, where we saw fascinating displays of samurai armor. It was a well-planned and enjoyable tour, and we appreciate Yuka’s effort in making it such a great experience. Thank you, Yuka!
Yuka S.
Thank you for your good comments. I enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Odawara Castle and views from the top of donjon with you. I'm happy to talk with you two and you had an experience of the bullet train ride.

“Wonderful first of three days with our amazing guide, Seigo!”
My wife and I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Japan that was highlighted by 3 glorious days in and around the Hakone area. This trip was made so wonderful and memorable as a direct result of having Seigo as our guide throughout. We were fortunate to engage Seigo for a 3 day tour of Kamakura, Hakone and Mt. Fuji, and each day provided highlights and memories that will last forever. This is a Day one review only as there is much to describe! Seigo arranged to meet and greet us upon our arrival into Tokyo at Haneda airport and we immediately began seeing and learning and experiencing all that the area had to offer. We started with a coastline drive past Yokohama and towards Hakone via Kamakura, which was an unexpected treasure. We visited the Great Buddha of Kamakura where words fail to describe its impressive size and beauty. We arrived just prior to sunset and got to see the Great Buddha in an exceptional light, and even were in time to explore the inside of it to marvel at the genius of its construction. Seigo was extremely informative of the history of the Great Buddha and took many pictures of us! From there we traveled to the Islet of Enoshima for a quick visit of this seaside town. We can easily understand how both Kamakura and Enoshima are destinations unto themselves worthy of a future visit. After a quick stop at a local 7-Eleven (requested by us) for snacks and use of a local ATM, we traveled to Hakone Gora to our hotel, again learning about the greater Hakone area from Seigo. All along the way, Seigo shared his knowledge from having grown up in the area and provided tips and suggestions to make our planned 3 days together memorable. Based on our suggestions and thoughts, Seigo was able to revise the plans for our visit to meet our personal requests. When arriving at our hotel, he was able to make arrangements for some of our other planned activities for us with hotel staff. A wonderful introduction to Hakone area!
Seigo U.
Howard san, I appreciate the heartwarming reviews. Thanks to you and your wife, I also enjoyed our three-day tours. What made me the happiest was that you said you'd had a lot of fun visiting and seeing what you had expected and visiting my recommended places such as Kamakura and Enoshima. I hope you return to the area and explore it more. Seigo
