Kamakura Tour Reviews
“Wonderful visit to Hakone with Kaneo”
Our group of six had a wonderful fun packed day visiting Hakone. Kaneo was very kind and helped us navigate with all our bookings for trains and various other modes of transport. He guided us to all the must see spots in Hakone and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide than Kaneo. He has a very personable nature and all of us felt very comfortable with him. He made sure we were all very comfortable during the trip and it was evident he wanted us all to have a great time which we did.

(48 reviews)Thank you for your warm review. In spite of of a traffic accident, we could meet your cousins at Odawara station. I was surprised to know they came from India. I felt happy to know you were satisfied with my guide. I hope I could have a chance to guide you again someday.
“Trip to Yokohama ”
Had a wonderful day exploring Yokohama. Kaneo was very responsive prior to our trip and arranged a great itinerary for us. I had wanted to do an authentic Tea ceremony and that was arranged. Went for a great lunch in Chinatown and explored beautiful gardens. Would definitely recommend him highly.

(48 reviews)Thank you for your quick and warm review. It was a little hot day but it was luck not to rain. I myself enjoyed authentic tea ceremony practice. I am happy to know you like Sankeien garden. I wish you will enjoy the rest of tour in Japan.
“A good tour of Hakone”
Kaneo was great and communicated the itinerary with me way before our trip. He answered any questions we might have prior to the trip as well. My family and I got a good tour around Hakone in a 8hr time with explanations of the history. We had one full day in Hakone so it was great that someone was able to take us around and I didn't have to try to navigate this all on my own. Saved us time and headaches of getting lost. Thank you again, Kaneo!
