“Flexible tour of Tokyo ”
Thank you for the tour Ritsuko! Ritsuko took my mother and I for a tour of Tokyo in the middle of summer while it was very hot. We had a route planned but Ritsuko was happy to make some last minute changes for us to accommodate for the hot weather (needing to have some more breaks and rests). Ritsuko also helped us to find the gate for where the Shinkansen departs! Thank you again! :)

“Laughter, joy, energy and love-filled day!”
Where do we even start! Right on time at our hotel this morning! This knowledge filled full of smiles lady wasted no time in reading our hopes for the day. Straight to joyful introductions, crossing the road to an amazing park with Zojo temple! Full of humour, Tomoko was dismayed to see the gates closed for refurbishing ! Nonetheless she said that was unusual and we took a photo of the unusual scaffolding lol ! She poured out plenty of knowledge of the temple and the difference between temples and shrines and their history! We loved it as we had come to learn about Japan! History done we embarked onto trains et al places! It was hot! But we quickly learned from her how to keep cool! This review will not cover everything! It got so busy and interesting: lunch, rivers, party boat locations, beer company, shopping, an open temple with gates open this time, tree of life that survived a fire, bring cash for this area! Really nice trinkets! Sweets galore! Unique craftsmanship shop! Trains again, palace, fashion high street, affordable fashion shopping! Dear me! Don- que, anime shops, electronics! I really have a long list! Arigato gozaimasu Tomoko! We have thoroughly enjoyed our trip with you. We hope to meet again definitely! Thank you thank you thank you!

Dear Mark, Lucy, and Lily, I had a really good time with you, and I felt like all my sweat was blown away by laughter with you. I am honored that you remember in such detail where we went, what we did, and what I said today. Thanks to you, I was able to return home safely without being caught by the police. (lol) I'm innocent!!! Lucy, Lily, I was impressed by how efficiently and smartly you shopped. Mark, I appreciate your keen observation and kindness in letting me know that we were about to miss Asakusa station because we were so absorbed in conversation while riding the subway. The hot weather is expected to continue tomorrow and beyond, so please stay hydrated, seek shade and air-conditioned areas, and keep enjoying your trip in Tokyo, to Kyoto, Osaka, and Kyushu. Thank you so much. Arigato!!! Matane!!! - Tomoko

“Great experience ”
Jaime was very easygoing and knowledgeable. He adjusted our tour based on my son’s interests and it was great so see my 19 year old son so happy. He gave us great tips on how to better navigate the train system to avoid getting lost since it can be quite overwhelming. He took us to a delicious place to eat the best ramen! Hope to be back in Japan and would definitely reach out to Jaime again.
