“An informative, excellent tour of Tokyo”
Kaneo was the perfect guide during our first day in Tokyo. It was our first time to Tokyo, and requested he help show us various things such as the bus system, shopping areas, etc. he did a great job working all of our requests into his tour, and also showed us many beautiful shrines and landmarks around the city. He has deep knowledge around the city’s history, which added a lot to the tour. Thanks again for a great tour!

(52 reviews)Thank you for so quick reply. I am glad to know you enjoyed my tour. Though middle of September, it was too hot today. We walked too much. I hope you will enjoy Tokyo in slower pace tomorrow. I will take a rest. Kaneo
“Very Kind and Knowledgeable Guide”
We have booked Kaneo for three days. Two in Tokyo and one in Hakone. Kaneo was very accommodating and knew where to take us in Tokyo. As you know, there Tokyo is full of things to do, and he managed to edit the sites so that it was manageable. The tours were very informative and he gave a lot of thought as to where we would most enjoy going to. On top of all that, he helped pick out a restaurant and made dinner reservations for us during our last evening in Tokyo. In Hakone, he showed us the many sites there, and we got to see the locations that make Hakone truly picturesque and unique. In all, Kaneo was an excellent tour guide, and he was very attuned to the needs of his tour group. I highly recommend his services. Mari

(52 reviews)Thank you for your warm review, Mari. The days were in Typhoon 10th. But we enjoyed almost all the itinerary without heavy raining. That may own to your friend, Yasuko's strong luck. Thank you for giving me good time to spend you and your family.
“An excellent 2 days spent exploring the best of Tokyo with Kaneo”
Kaneo organised a great two day tour of Tokyo for our family, showing both the old and the new and customising the itinerary based on some Japanese TV programs I have been watching and particular interests for our family. He booked ahead for the Shibuya Sky view (very necessary) and I highly recommend checking out the Ninja Cafe if you have some energentic kids. A really great experience all round and a great guy to spend a couple days with.
