“Two days that were beyond excellent!”
Our two days with Kahoko were terrific. She was well organized and gave us a great overview of Tokyo. She was incredibly responsive in helping us map out an intinerary of sites well in advance of our visit. We used public transportation which was fabulous. We left feeling that we really saw Tokyo. On top of that she was genuinely nice and caring and made sure we knew where we going when we left her. We enjoyed every single minute of being with her. Thank you Kahoko. We hope to come back and see you again!!

“Fantastic Day Out to Hakone”
Kahoko kept a watchful eye on the weather as we planned a day trip from Tokyo to Hakone. The day dawned with glorious sunshine. Kahoko arranged for her husband Michi to be our driver so we could have. flexibility for our touring. He was such nice company as well. He and my husband both love cars! With an early start we were able to see Mt. Fuji without clouds. We drove up winding mountain roads to a great viewing area with Fuji still visible with only a few clouds. The it was off to another delicious lunch, followed by a boat cruise. When the line for the ropeway was going to be a 90 minute wait, Kahoko made a quick change of plans and we were off to the Hakone open air sculpture museum which we really enjoyed. We had so much fun with Michi and Kahoko. What a fabulous day!

Thank you very much for another review!! You are too sweet. Even though there we some unexpected troubles, you were totally relaxed and cooperative. I really appreciate your tolerance. Also, I enjoyed every conversation with two of you, full of witness and intelligence. One regret was I failed understanding your husband's joke. I must work harder. I have a luck meeting you again. Until then, take care !

“Another GREAT Day with Kahoko”
Today was our 2nd day with lovely Kahoko. The weather was Grey and sometimes rainy so she arranged the day so we could be inside during the rain. We had a couple of hours in the National Museum which we thoroughly enjoyed. She made traveling on the metro seamless as we made our way to Shinjuku. My husband didn't know about Godzilla on the building so it was a fun surprise for him. After a delicious lunch (Kahoko picks great restaurants) we had fun visiting the food hall at Isetan department - Wow!! The rain has stopped so we visited the nearby Shinjuko Gyoen National Garden where we saw some of the first blooming cherry trees of the Sakura season. What a fun, interesting day with a fabulous, charming guide. We can't wait for tomorrow's tour

Thank you very much for another warm review ! Under the poor weather, guides cannot do almost anything. In my career, yesterday's tour was a memorable tour on rainy day. You have many magic tricks changing negative elements to positive ones. Thanks to you, I had such a wonderful day with you learning so many things. Thank you so much!!
