Tour Important Information

To enjoy Kamakura tour, you had better walk. In this tour you will walk about one hour intermittently. I advise you to wear walking shoes.

This tour is a bit of rapid one. So if you want to spend more time at a certain spot than I expected, we may change the schedule a bit.

Tokyo tour with Kaneo

Kaneo is a very personable and helpful guide. He was efficient and knowledgeable. The your he planned for us took in all the major sites we wished to visit and he did not rush us, actually he gave us more time than we had paid for. It would have been helpful to have some written information about the sites we visited to take away and read, because there is limited time and a lot to take in. But this is only a small point and overall the experience was excellent.

Natalie P.

Thank you for quick and warm reply. I hope you enjoyed full blooming cherry blossoms in Tokyo. Thanks to you I also enjoyed the best Hanami this year.

Great day in Tokyo with Kaneo

With Kaneo as my guide, I was able to see many attractions in Tokyo in one day. I would never have been able to see so many sites by myself. Tokyo is busy and confusing, so someone who is visiting for the first time can really benefit from having a skilled guide lead the way. Kaneo could answer every question I ask. He was knowledgeable, polite and fun to spend the day with. He did his best to assure that I saw all the highlights. As a bonus, the cherry blossoms were finally blooming and Kaneo knows just where to go to see the best displays of the blossoms. I highly recommend Kaneo as your guide to make the most of your time in Tokyo..

Anne W.

Thank you for your quick and warm review. I myself enjoyed cherry blossoms in best condition with you. I feel proud that I could give you some help for you to enjoy Tokyo.

Cherry blossoms tell the start of Japanese spring. During cherry season, I will show you some of the best spots for "Hanami" in Tokyo. But the date of full blooming differs every year depending on the weather, which is hard to predict. Several predicting services compete in their predicting accuracy every year. Cherry blossoms usually start blooming late March and end at the beginning of April. They reach full blooming 7 days after starting and end 7 days later after full blooming.
