“Pleasant trip for first timer”

Etsu was an amazing guide in Tokyo. She picked me up directly at my hotel, which made everything very easy, especially since it was my first time in Japan. We visited Tsukiji Market and Tokyo Skytree, and she made getting around Tokyo simple and pleasant. We also stopped for matcha ice cream and had a few meals along the way, unagi, dango etc. I had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend her to anyone visiting Tokyo for the first time. Thank you!!

Etsu I.

Thank you for your comment. I was so happy to guide you and enjoy girls' talk. Also it was precious time for drinking beer together. You were so cute and had a great sense of humor. Also, you looked like you were having fun, especially when you were browsing the Soramachi area. If you have a chance to come again, let's go bar hopping at night. I am looking forward to seeing you again. Once again, thank you for coming all the way to Japan.

“Great city tour!”

We enjoyed our time with Ritsuko. She had a great itinerary and was resourceful and flexible when we asked for modifications and additions. She was especially helpful in offering advice for other days when we would be on our own, offering specific resources. We would highly recommend her to others.

Ritsuko K.

Hi Leann and Kim, Thank you for your kind words! It was a true pleasure guiding you on your first full day in Tokyo. Even though it was a bit chilly on the day, I’m glad we were able to visit even more spots than originally planned. Since it was such a beautiful, warm day today, you must have a fantastic time hiking in Kamakura. I hope you continue to enjoy your upcoming hiking tours. All the best!
