Kanagawa Tour Reviews
“Tokyo Illuminations Tour”
Our tour with Yu was excellent. She planned a great itinerary showing off the lights and she knew the city so well taking us along shortcuts to quickly get from A to B. Yu spoke excellent English and was very knowledgeable. At the end of the tour she was so lovely that she gave us a little gift with a handmade Christmas card which included a handmade origami tree inside. Thanks Yu.

(5 reviews)Hi, Vivi and Yosi. I truly appreciate your nice review. I'm very happy to hear that you enjoyed Tokyo. We were so lucky with the weather and crowd, weren't we? I wish a pleasant journey to you! Thank you again.
“Nice Day In Kamakura ”
We were a little late arriving at the train station, however, Yu was a trooper and stuck around for our arrival. It was very easy to find her as she had a sign with my name raised high above her head. Yu had hand drawn a cute map outlining our day trip. We visited a couple of temples, the bamboo garden and the Great Buddha. Yu was very knowledgeable of the history of each site visited. Yu was very patient as we slowed down the tour as we stopped many times to take pictures. I would definitely take another tour with Yu.
