“Wonderful ”
Ritsuko was absolutely wonderful as our guide. She is very knowledgeable about the history of every location we visited. She was also able to make changes on the fly as we had a very heavy rain day on our tour. I would highly recommend.

Hi Steve and Steven, Thank you so much for your kind review. I truly felt sorry that the sudden typhoon brought such heavy rain and left you completely soaked. Even so, I was glad to share not only the main sights but also some of my favorite small gardens and museums. Thank you as well for sending me the lovely photo. As I write this message, the skies have already cleared, which is a little confusing after such a storm! In any case, I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan, including your dinner tonight and all the days ahead.

“Amazing guide!”
We were fortunate to have booked Ritsuka for our first two full days in Tokyo. She was instrumental in teaching us about the city, how to navigate the transportation system, and showing us the sights. She took us to small museums, great restaurants, places to shop, and taught us Japanese history. A true local! Book her as soon as you know you’re going to Tokyo- you won’t regret it!

Hi Gabrielle, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I am delighted to hear that the three of you enjoyed the tours, even in the unexpectedly late-summer heat. I hope you will also enjoy Kyoto and Hiroshima, tasting plenty of local foods and creating many special memories along the way. And one day, please do come back to Tokyo in another season. I would love the chance to guide you again and show you even more local neighborhoods away from the crowds. Until then, all the best!

Dear Jeff Thank you for your review on me with recommendation. As it was so hot and humid on the day, I feel sorry that we can’t carry out the itinerary as it was scheduled. Now I feel at ease to have your comment on the tour. Thank you again. Yutaka Sumita
