“Beautiful first glimpse of Tokyo”
Hideaki was very professional. He researched everything that we wanted to do and timed it like clockwork so we could be back for our flight on time without feeling hurried or like we missed out on anything. My son was very happy eating sushi in Tokyo and visiting the Nintendo store!

Exciting Mt. Fuji - One Day Tour from Tokyo
In this tour, we will visit two of the most popular Mt. Fuji viewing spots. My favorite part of this tour is when I take you to Arakurayama Sengen Park where we can have the most beautiful view of Mt. Fuji with five-story pagoda. I think this is the best place for Mt. Fuji viewing, but it is located in a little bit complicated place. So, I can take you here in the most efficient way.

Naritasan Shinshoji temple before your flight
If you have more than 4 hours before your flight at Narita airport, you should visit Naritasan Shinshoji temple, and experience Japanese culture. It's a time-honored temple with a history of over 1000 years. In my opinion, it's the best temple in Tokyo region with great traditional buildings, beautiful Japanese gardens and Japanese food. Here, I can tell almost everything about Japanese couture and traditions to you. I can make your layover time in Japan more enjoyable and fruitful !!
