“Exceptional Guide Made Tokyo a Breeze for My Daughter”
I wanted to take a moment to share how impressed I was with the Mr Yasuro C., who assisted my daughter during her recent trip to Tokyo. From the very beginning, he made her feel at ease by meeting her at the airport and helping her navigate the subway system. His support didn’t stop there—he took the time to show her around and ensured she found her hotel without any issues. His friendliness, professionalism, and knowledge of the city made a huge difference in her experience. She felt safe, supported, and truly valued throughout her journey. I can’t thank him enough for his exceptional service. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and caring guide in Tokyo, I highly recommend him!

“Great experience with Yasuro”
The guidance day with Yasuro was a must-do. It was a very smooth landing in this busy (and beautiful) Tokyo. Yasuro knows every corner of the city and was incredibly patient, adjusting to every request or need.

(75 reviews)Dear Mr. & Mrs. Sivan, Thank you very much for the generous review for me. It was happy time for me to talk with you while taking lunch and walking thru streets and parks in Tokyo. And I learned a lot about the cultures of your country. As Kyoto is hotter than Tokyo, please take care of yourselves, and enjoy Onsen, hot spring, in Hakone. Thank you again. Best regards, Yasuro

“Yasuro is Fantastic”
Yasuro made navigating all the transportation options easy. He's a very knowledgeable guide from where the best places to sit are to how to be respectful at the shrine. We felt lucky that we found him.

(75 reviews)Dear Steven S., Thank you very much for the generous review for me. It was a joyful time for me to talk with you about many topics during the tour. How did you find Onsen (a hot spring) of your hotel? I hope you really enjoyed Onsen and good Sushi without shellfish, of course. As it is still very hot in Tokyo this week, please take care of yourselves and have good memories of Japan. Thank you again. Best regards, Yasuro
