“Perfect day”
Mark was very sentitive to our wishes. One big premise: as it was Saturday and a long weekend Holiday we asked to see as few people as possible. He did just that, for which we are very grateful. We saw an incredible garden, museums, an incredible omasake lunch and more away from the crowds. We were the odd ones out! We learned from his knowledge and how to get around a subway Station….incredible! Thank you Mark for a wonderful day in lovely Tokyo.

“Golden Gia Fun!”
We had a super fun night with Kuni. He took us exactly where we wanted to go. He did a good job at making sure he tailored the evening to us - went to see the sights and visit the bars we wanted to. Gave great insight of the areas and we really appreciate all the photos he took of us! We even did some karaoke , well sort of :)

“Outstanding experience in Tokyo!!”
Our tour with Sami was absolutely amazing. Before we left on our trip we had excellent communication with Sami regarding the itinerary, and he was able to arrange the events of the day in a way that we were able to see ALL of the sights that we asked to see. Sami speaks great English and was a wonderful guide throughout the day. He met us at our hotel right on time, and we left right away. He was very knowledgable at each of the places we went to visit. In addition, he spent some extra time teaching us how to ride the trains around Tokyo, which came in handy on our fourth day when we went exploring on our own. We never felt rushed and we spent the right amount of time at each of our stops. Spending the day with Sami was the absolute highlight of the time we were able to spend in Tokyo. When we return, we will make sure that he is part of our experience. Thank you Sami!!!!!!
