“Excellent Day in Tokyo!”
We had a fabulous day with Mark! He was extremely knowledgeable, very kind and thoughtful, he tailored the day to suit our needs, consulted us in the decision-making and took us to well-known attractions and little-known tourist spots. We would highly recommend Mark to guide you round Tokyo!!

As described, Jaime met my wife and I and our two kids (18 and 21) at our hotel in Tokyo and was an incredible guide for the entire day. Jaime has a very unique offering with this tour as it covers areas not popular with tourists and it caters great to our kids interests. Jaime was super accommodating and did a great job of engaging with our kids to learn their preferences and cater tour accordingly. Happy kids (yes still our grown "Kids") makes happy parents. Lunch was at the Ikebukuro NIKU Gekijo and it was excellent. Complements to Jaime for having great taste in food. Those picky eaters in our group gave it a thumbs up! My wife and I enjoyed the Japanese clothing brands and even went back later in the week to make some purchases. Kids found all sorts of Anime and Action Figures. If you're in Tokyo and need to find places off the beaten path, this is the tour for you. I have never used a guide before but will from now on. Jaime made my day stress free and efficient by not having to plan the day in a place that we don't know and having to get lost. Domo Arigato Jaime!

“G. O. A. T.! Look no further…”
Konnichiwa! My family and I had the best time in Tokyo with Kaori-san. Even prior to our meeting, she was always quick to respond to my numerous emails/messages; very helpful with information to help us customize our tour (especially with my kids in mind as well as their interests) and very patient with all my questions. On tour day, she arrived on time and taught us our first lesson in greeting eachother in Japanese (kids vs. adults). We shopped and toured around the Shinjuku, Shibuya and Harajuku area. We got to take photos of Godzilla head, 3D cat and Hachiko (my personal fave). We ate at a great spot for lunch, Karu, which was a rotating sushi restaurant. There was a fun game at table side that the kids enjoyed, the sushi was great (such a variety), and it was a hit seeing the special conveyor belt speed deliver your food! At the end of the day, we didn’t want to say goodbye to Kaori. Planning this trip had given me some anxiety…and I knew our first day in Tokyo would be overwhelming in trying to navigate the train system, crowds and just being in a new country! However, our day with Kaori put all of us at ease, she really helped us to get a Handle on the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. My kids haven’t stopped talking about Kaori even as we are still trekking through Japan. So sweet and very informative! We all really loved her!

Konnichiwa! Arigato gozaimasu for taking your precious time to write such an exceptional review for me and attaching nice photos of us while you are still traveling. I’m delighted to hear your sweet kids remembered me in such a lovely way. All of your family were so kind and friendly to me. It is always my pleasure to have fun together, but also to support my guests to make their travel smooth as possible for their own time. I'm so happy you are enjoying Japan! Can't wait to see you all again in the future, maybe Ghibli next time!! Big hugs, Kaori
