“A wonderful day with Kumiko”
Kumiko is gentle, very knowledgeable, and has a wonderful energy to her. I give our tour day a solid 10/10. Kimiko is a native to Tokyo and knows the city extremely well. We covered a lot of ground and what we enjoyed so much was seeing and enjoying some of the less touristy areas. I requested that the day be art themed and it was! Loved it from start to finish.

Dear Galia and Gary, Thank you for your kind comment; I truly appreciate it more than I deserve! I also enjoyed our visit to the gallery and festival in Jiyugaoka. I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed exploring the less touristy areas. Wishing you a safe trip back home, and I hope you come to visit again! Best, Kumiko

“An exceptional two-day Tokyo experience with Atsuko”
My son and I spent two days exploring Tokyo with Atsuko, and she was outstanding from start to finish. She blended deep local knowledge with a warm, easygoing personality, making every stop—from iconic sights to tucked-away neighborhoods—feel meaningful and fun. Atsuko was perfectly organized and always on time, while also being flexible and tailoring our itinerary as she learned what we enjoyed most. She helped us navigate trains and subways effortlessly, shared fascinating history and cultural context, and introduced us to fantastic places to eat that we never would have found on our own. Communication was clear and seamless, and her recommendations for what to do before and after our tour were spot-on. We left feeling like we’d seen “the real Tokyo,” not just the highlights. If you want a guide who is knowledgeable, thoughtful, and genuinely invested in giving you a great experience, book Atsuko—you’ll be in excellent hands.

“Could not have done it without you.”
We had a wonderful time with Ritsuko, we only had 1 day in Tokyo and got around to more then we could have imagined or been able to on our own. Highly Recommend.

Hi Kate, thank you for your kind review. I’m glad you all enjoyed the essence of Tokyo, even though our schedule was a little full. There are still so many wonderful places I’d love to show you. Please come back in another season to explore more!
