“The best guide in Tokyo ”
I travel a lot to Japan and have had the pleasure of using many guides. Kahoko san is the absolute best. She has an amazing bubbly happy personality, perfect English and deep knowledge of the city. She can plan a perfect day or two for you. She is just a delight to travel with. She was super nice with my teenage American daughter- and the Lord knows that can be challenging.. Simply a fantastic guide I would use every time I bring guests to Tokyo.

Thank you very much for the kindest review ! I had such a lovely time with two of you. I was relieved that he weather was not so bad as a day in rainy season. It was greatful for me making so many conversations with you about various topics. Actually I was able to learn so many things from you even about Japan. I am so impressed with your deep understanding and knowledge about our culture. Two of you will start new lives in different environments soon. I hope you will have a great time there. Thank you again and good luck!

“Upscale Izakaya Dinner”
Kahoko was such a kind tour guide, She picked up at our hotel in the lobby and guided us through the Tokyo subway system to Shibuyu and Shinjuku. It was a very rainy night, but she kept our spirits up. The highlight of the tour was our dinner at a very nice Japanese Izakaya which we would have never found on our own. The food and atmosphere were very nice. We highly recommend Kahoko with any Tokyo tour needs.

Thank you very much for the kind review! I really appreciate your tolerance and patience because the weather was not so good unfortunately. Still, it was a great opportunity for me to have a lot of conversations over dinner with you. I am impressed with your positive attitude , especially your daughter, , ,trying new food. I believe she was able to broaden her horizon even a little. I hope your family's good luck and happiness. Thank you very much again and take care!

This tour is arranged based on my experience, more than 100 times. If we can expect the view of Mt. Fuji by a live camera, I will take you to the best places for viewing it as early as possible. Where you can enjoy the view without having to wait long. If not, I will take you to other popular places you can enjoy without the view, expecting the view at a later part of the tour. Hakone is famous for hot spring baths; you can try a public or private one if you want by extending the tour time.
