Reviews

Superb 5-star experience with Kahoko - One of a kind

We are a family of three and recently hired Kahoko for a half-day “get-acquainted” tour of central Tokyo on our first day in the city. She is an exceptional guide, absolutely superb, and went above and beyond, not only showing us the main sights but also helping us navigate the Tokyo metro and railway system. She even went as far as helping us with our bullet train tickets and recommended an excellent lunch restaurant. Very knowledgeable. She has an affable, congenial personality ideally suited to the job. Highly, highly recommended. Thank you, Kahoko!

Thank you very much for the kindest review! I am sorry for the late reply because I was out of Tokyo for a couple of days. I had such a lovely time with a wonderful family like you even though it was such a hot day. It was like a time race in a way to clear things to do in a limited time. I believe you enjoyed the rest of time on your own. I feel so happy to know I was able do something for you even a little. I hope you have another opportunity to come to Tokyo again. Thank you very much again and take care!

An excellent day in Tokyo

We were fortunate to have Kahoko as our guide in Tokyo. She took us to places that we would never have known about or found on our own. Her English is excellent and we found her to be bright and engaging throughout our tour. We are very happy to recommend her to anyone wanting an interesting and informative tour of Tokyo and surrounding areas

Thank you very much for the wonderful review ! I had such a lovely and relaxing time with a terrific couple! As you asked me off the beaten places , it was far from crowd and less stressful through the tour even though the heat. Thanks to that, I fully enjoyed every conversation with you. It was interesting and I learned a lot from you. I hope you come back to Japan some day. Thank you again and take care!

More Tokyo!

After the ½ day tour with our guide Kahoko, we took a full day tour. Kahoko met us in our hotel lobby and then we were off to more subway riding! Thank goodness we had Kahoko to tell us what to do on the subways. Went to the Fish Market (Tsukiji outer market) - David thought it was too much shopping… lol. Saw another shrine close to the fish market where they were performing a ceremony. Then we made our way to a lovey park with a tea house (Hamarikyu garden). At the tea house, Kahoko got us cool matcha tea and showed us how to drink it properly. Also had a very cute dessert. In the park I saw a manhole cover with a ginko tree design. (Who would of thought that manhole covers were beautiful!) Then it was off to a Japanese lunch way up high in one of the buildings adjacent to the park. We could look down and see the tea house that we were just at. After lunch, we went to the Meiji Jingu Shrine. It was right beside the subway, but felt like you were isolated from the world. Lots of trees! We saw the end of a big ceremony when we arrived. After we left, we went to Shibuya Crossing and saw the statue of Hachiko (loyal dog). Then we did the scrambled crossing. Lots of people!!! Afterwards Kahoko took use to the Japanese equivalent to a Lowes home improvement store. It was called “Hands”. (We were looking for a roll of painters tape… not a normal thing for a tour - lol). Also saw the close by Jinnan shopping district before heading back to the subway for the ride back to our hotel. Thanks, Kahoko – it was a great day. And David is still using his parasol!

Thank you very much for another kind review! I really appreciate it. I had a lovely time on the day as well the other tour thanks to you. In Tsukiji ,hustle -bustle market place and ceremonial shrine are a good contrast. In Hama rikyu, the tea time in the tea house on the pond was really relaxing. I was happy to show you about tea ceremony even a little. Also lunch time in the restaurant with a great view was peaceful enjoyable owing to your generosity. In Meiji jingu shrine , we were able to see solemn ceremonial procession. It was great experience for me because I have never seen it there. All in all, we could visit several places in a limited time smoothly under the heat. As you allowed me to use a parasol , the tour was much easier than usual . Thank you very much for asking me for two days. I hope you and your family's good health and good luck for long long time. Thank you again and take care!
