“Half day tour with Shin”

We had the pleasure of spending a half day in Tokyo with Shin as our tour guide, and he was absolutely outstanding. His knowledge of Tokyo’s history, culture, and local traditions made every stop interesting and meaningful. Shin was friendly, professional, and very accommodating to our group’s needs and pace. He shared many fascinating insights that we would have otherwise missed and helped us navigate the city efficiently, making the most of our limited time. His recommendations for local food, shopping, and sightseeing were excellent and greatly enhanced our experience. Thank you, Shin, for making our visit to Tokyo enjoyable, informative, and memorable. We highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and personable guide in Tokyo.

Shinichiro H.

Dear S.P, Thank you very much for your wonderful review. I’m so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your visit to Tokyo and that it became a memorable experience for you. It was a great pleasure meeting you and spending time with you and your group during the tour. Please give my warmest regards to everyone in the group. I look forward to welcoming you all back to Japan someday. You are always welcome! Best regards, Shin

“Fantastic day out ...”

We had an awesome day tour with Shin. The day was challenging due to heat and physical limitations. Shin was very patient, had everything organised and planned, and made sure we were ok throughout the day. We had some interesting conversations and he had a genuine interest in you. You could not hope to meet a nicer person. Thankyou for your time Shin san, it was a pleasure to spend the day with you and we look forward to meeting you again.

Shinichiro H.

Dear Roy and Sharon. H, Thank you for your heartfelt review. I hope you enjoyed your visit to Sankeien Garden, China Town, and Landmark Tower in Yokohama. I truly appreciated our conversations; they were a delight for me. Although touring Japan during this season can be very challenging due to the heat and humidity, I am thrilled to hear that you learned so much about Japan and enjoyed your stay. I look forward to seeing you again! Warm regards, Shin (Shinichiro Hazeki)

“Outstanding 2 Day Tour”

I can’t say enough about our Guide Shin or the 2 days of tours he planned and took my group on. He epitomizes the Japanese culture, he is friendly, helpful, accommodating and caring. My group could not say enough about him. Shin truly kicked our Japanese vacation off with a bang! When we parted ways on the last day, it truly felt like we were saying goodbye to a friend. For anyone planning a trip to Japan and more specifically Tokyo, please reach out to Shin. I want to thank Shin once again for his professionalism, knowledge and friendliness. Cheers from Expedia Cruises Oakville South!

Shinichiro H.

Dear Mike K., Thank you sincerely for your generous and thoughtful review. It was an absolute honor and pleasure to be your group’s guide on July 23 and 24. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations and the time spent with you and your group. Despite the intense heat and high humidity, I hope the experience was memorable for you and your group. Wishing you and your group a delightful and healthy continuation of the upcoming cruise in Japan. Please give my best regards to all of your group members. Sincerely Yours, Shin (Shinichiro Hazeki)
