“A relaxed and fascinating walk in the past with Sachimi-san”
I was eager to explore the outskirts of Tokyo. I chose Sachimi-san because her tour was specifically focused on Kawagoe, an area where different past architectures merge: Edo, Meiji, Tasho, Showa. Sachimi could help me with the logistics. We could visit Kitain temple, where I was lucky enough to assist to a burning ritual and sutra chant, and then Hikawa, a shrine with a playful atmosphere. With her, I had the most delicious unagi I ever had in my trip (I am picky about unagi!). We strolled around in the joyful Kurazukuri street which is abundant of vintage shops, that I love. We visited a brewery, a really old soy factory...so many things, but I never felt any rush. Sachimi-san was always flexible and could easily read my interests. Time really flew! I hope to walk again in those streets in the future. If so, will be again with Sachimi-san.

Hi, Stefano-san, Thank you so much for such nice words! It was really a joy to walk the lovely town and I am glad you liked and saw a lot there. The lunch was also really good! I hope you will come back to Japan, then let's explore another off-the-beaten old atmosphere area! Thank you again. Please take care!

“It's like having an outing with an old friend!”
I enjoyed every single moment exploring and walking around Chichibu area with Daisuke. He made me feel so comfortable that we ended up sharing personal life stories and challenges unreservedly while having a great time visiting temples. He was a great traveling companion who paid attention to details and went extra miles to make sure my trip a memorable one. We had such a great time together despite the rains. I highly recommend Daisuke to anyone considering engaging a local guide in Japan, esp Tokyo and Chichibu area. He is the best guide I ever had! Daisuke, once again, thank you so much for making my Japan trip an unforgettable one!

You also gave me wonderful, unforgettable and joyful moments. I was really happy to be with you and I am so glad you enjoyed every activity and place on this tour. Hope we see again some day and let's have fun talk to open up again!

“Kawagoe - a gem for a day trip from Tokyo!”
This was our third tour with Hiroko san, and liked all of them, but this was probably the nicest. Kitain temple was beautiful and serene, and Hikawa shrine was also beautiful and fun. Hiroko san showed us some fun rituals that locals do at the shrine, and we had fun fishing for our omikuji (fortune slips)! The warehouse and sweet shop were fun - everything looked so delicious! Really need to return for a longer trip! Lunch at a Kamameshi place was delicious and Hiroko san helped us to reserve the place and order so that we could walk around the shops - thanks so much for that, Hiroko san! This tour indicated 5 hours but Hiroko san was with us for over 7 hours - so it’s really a full day trip. Again, thanks so much for a wonderful day and for showing us around during these tours in Tokyo!
Hiroko S.
Thank you so much for taking the time to review my tour. It was my pleasure to guide you two on this tour! Especially, I was delighted to see you two enjoying "fishing" at the shrine:) Since Kawagoe has a lot of food options, I know one day is not enough, next time, I hope you can have delicious shaved ice there! Hiroko
