Kawagoe is located in the north part of Tokyo. It is only 30 minutes by train from central Tokyo. Kawagoe has good access and it is a very convenient tourist spot. Kawagoe is a town of history retaining the culture and aroma of Edo period 400 years ago. Why not visit the temples and learn about historical heritage, and fill up on Japanese food at an authentic Japanese restaurant?

We were warmly welcomed by Kenji at our hotel lobby and we felt welcomed. Fantastic start to our four hour tour! Kenji formatted a tour that was extremely good, very flexible (appreciate this!) and for that he deserves a special thanks. Kenji has such a warm personality and highly motivated guide. I truly enjoyed Kenji taking the time to show us the subway system and walking the four of us through the area. All respect for Kenji who does a great job; a true example of an excellent tour guide! Many thanks again and I recommend Kenji to everyone!

Visit to Bonsai Village in Saitama
As I am living in a walk distance from Bonsai Village, I can guide you very effectively. Bonsai Village is located In Saitama City. It takes about one hour from the center of Tokyo by rail. At present day, there are five nurseries of Bonsai and The Omiya Bonsai Art Museum. Each of the nurseries has their own characteristics you may enjoy. Some have lady-favorite Bonsai, and some has large size Bonsai. You may buy vessels and tools specialized in Bonsai nursing. You could even buy Bonsai itself( you need some complicated procedures to export them). Bonsai village is within only 15 minute by foot. You can enjoy walking in quiet town(village) by only one hour trip from the downtown of Tokyo. The museum has about 150 Bonsai. Some of them are 1000-2000 years old and you can also observe the staff caring them at a short distance. The museum also has three typical TOKONOMA (caves) with best suited Bonsai. There are English brochures which is very simple and volunteer guides with little foreign language efficiency.
