Kamakura Tour Reviews
“Great morning in Tokyo”
Mark was a great tour guide for our party of 9 including 5 kids ages 10-17. He met us at our hotel and took us to the Fukagawa Fudo Buddhist Temple to see the Fire & Taiko Drum Ceremony. It was an incredible experience. We then visited Kiyosumi Garden and ended the morning at Fukagawa Edo Museum where we learned about housing during the Edo period when Samurai ruled. Mark kept the kids engaged while giving us an interesting tour. We would definitely hire Mark again!

(36 reviews)Thank you so much for your kind review. It was my great pleasure to show you my favorite area Fukagawa. Yes one days is not enough to enjoy Tokyo and I truly looking forward to seeing you again. Next time, please let me guide you to Kamakura, Hakone and Nikko.
“Great day learning about Japan”
Mark was a fantastic guide. Very relaxed and full of information. He was flexible and gave us options as we went along. It was a hot day so we did a variety of indoor and outdoor touring. Would highly recommend Mark as your choice of your guide.

(36 reviews)Hi Greg. Thank you so much for the wonderful review and such a fun time. Yes it was a really hot day for June and we walked a lot. Yes quite a lot. It was my great pleasure to show you ‘My Favorite Tokyo’ Looking forward to seeing you again sometime.
“Mark was great!”
We were looking for a knowledgeable guide for Tokyo and Mark was everything we wanted. His English is fantastic (actually lived in the US growing up). He took us to several things we would not have found on our own, the best example being a Buddhist religious ceremony which was really something to see. He is also a very nice guy, with a sense of humor. He also chose a great restaurant for lunch. Highly recommended if you are serious about seeing and learning about Tokyo. Kent and Luca
