“A Beautiful Beginning to Our Japan Journey – Thank You, Tomoko!”
My family and I (myself, my dad, my auntie, and my two sisters) planned the trip of a lifetime to Japan. It was a dream my dad and auntie had shared for years, and we were so excited to make it a reality together. But as much as we were looking forward to it, the thought of navigating Tokyo right away felt a bit overwhelming. So we decided to book Tomoko for our very first day, and oh how grateful we are that we did! From the moment we met her, Tomoko-san was everything we could have hoped for and more. Warm, patient, and incredibly kind, she instantly made us feel at ease. She gently guided us through the city with a calm confidence, weaving in stories of Japanese history and teaching us bits of the beautiful language along the way. We never felt rushed, only welcomed. What made the day truly unforgettable, though, was something we could never have planned. Thanks to Tomoko-san’s personal connections, she brought us to a traditional tea house for an authentic Japanese tea ceremony. We were even invited to drink from centuries-old Chawan bowls, carefully and respectfully, under the watchful eye of the host. To wrap this up, you definitely won't regret it if you book Tomoko as your guide! It honestly embarrasses me that it’s taken us this long to write this review. Life swept us away when we returned home, but even now we all still talk about the experience and we will remember this for a long time! Tomoko-san, thank you from the bottom of our hearts. For your patience, laughter, your knowledge, and your kindness. You didn’t just show us Tokyo, you helped us feel it. And in doing so, you gave us the loveliest beginning to our Japan journey :)
