Exceptional Tokyo Tour with Yoshi!!

My husband and I had the absolute pleasure of taking a guided tour with Yoshi in January 2024, and it was hands down one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. Yoshi is an incredibly knowledgeable and passionate guide who made Tokyo’s rich history and culture come alive for us. He curated a thoughtful itinerary that included many must-see spots, and we were amazed at how much we were able to experience in a single day. Yoshi’s insights gave us a deeper appreciation for everything we saw. His explanations of the historical and cultural significance of each location were engaging and added so much depth to our experience. What truly sets Yoshi apart is his ability to connect with his guests and tailor the tour to make it unforgettable. Thanks to him, we not only visited amazing places but also gained a genuine understanding of Tokyo and its culture, which enriched the rest of our stay in Japan. We are so grateful for Yoshi and his time, and we wholeheartedly recommend his tour to anyone visiting Tokyo. Thank you, Yoshi, for making our trip so memorable—you’re the reason we’ll cherish these memories forever!

Hi Lindsey, Thank you for your extremely warm message. I also enjoyed being with you and your husband. I hope my explanations will make your trip in Japan a little more valuable. Have a nice trip! Yoshi

Wonderful family tour!

Yoshi took our Aussie family (2 parents, 4 kids aged 5-11) on the most wonderful tour of Hakone. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide! Yoshi was super friendly and extremely organised. He created the perfect blend of culture, beautiful scenery, delicious food and local education. He was very patient and kind with our small kids and set the perfect pace for a very big family of young kids. His English is very very good. We highly recommend Yoshi!

Great tour with Yoshi-San

Yoshi-San is a very friendly and knowledgeable Japanese, English-speaking gentleman. He used to work for a Japanese company, for which he traveled abroad a lot, and became a full-time guide 6 years ago. He took our family on a great two-day tour around Tokyo. He went to pick us up at the hotel and dropped us back at the hotel as well, which was very convenient. He brought custom-made printed pages to each visit to make sure we fully understood and retained the key historical / cultural details. He took us to nice places to visit and eat, suggested breaks when appropriate, proposed to take pictures, and was very understanding (our kids were exhausted from the plane trip so we had to cut part of the 8-hour program the first day). He is a fast-walker so make sure to bring appropriate shoes :-). Highly recommend!
