Excellent professional and thoughtful guide

Did a tour on first day and we saw so many different things especially cherry blossom at Ueno Park and older area of Yanaka .Such an interesting and varied itinerary and she went out of her way to accommodate us oldies with toilet and coffee breaks.We ended up down Memory Lane and felt we had really experienced many aspects of Tokyo because of her.Would thoroughly recommend her and indeed we have managed to book her again for more tours

Kahoko K.

Thank you very much for the kind and prompt review ! I really appreciate your tolerance and patience because the tour was kind of tough along with lots of walking in the crowd. I just hope you will enjoy the whole journey safely and pleasantly. Luckily, I have another chance to guide you in April. I will do my best and am looking forward to it. Please stay fit and take care!

Wonderful tour of Tokyo

Kahoko provided a marvelous tour of Tokyo. We got to see both traditional sights and modern as well as some ordinary neighborhoods. She thoughtfully took us to a vegan ramen restaurant for lunch (some of our group is vegetarian). Her English is outstanding. Thank you Kahoko.
