Reviews
“Kindhearted and energetic”
We had a wonderful 2-day tour with Kahoko. She was incredibly informative and caring, especially with our teenager who sprained his ankle just two days before the trip. He was walking with a boot and crutches, and Kahoko made sure he always had the option of using an elevator whenever possible. Although we’ve visited Tokyo many times before, this was our kids’ first time, and it was fantastic to have Kahoko share the history and insights of the sites we visited. She is a master at navigating the subway and the city, making the trip more manageable and efficient. My kids said it felt like having their caring grandma with them, but don’t let that fool you—Kahoko is incredibly energetic! She outwalked all of us, and we’re a pretty fit family. We highly recommend her for anyone looking to explore Tokyo!

Thank you very much for the kindest review! It is highly encouraging and gives me another motivation for the job. I had such terrific 2 days with a wonderful family : a successful doctor and sweet dad, an elegant and caring mom, my favorite nice guy, and a beloved dad's boy. Especially, the injured young man amazed me a lot. He never complained under the full-day walking. It's not so common as his age. I know that because I have been working as a tutor for teenagers more than 20 years. And he recovered quite well just in a short time ,I mean overnight ! I seldom envy people's youth but his quick getting-well condition made me do so. Anyway, it was a great pleasure for me to help you even a little on your memorable trip. I really appreciate your cooperation and tolerance. I hope you will come back to Japan some day soon. Until then, take care!
