Tour of Tokyo

Ken and his wife were wonderful! Our family of 4 had a great time touring Tokyo before heading to the airport. Ken was accommodating and very friendly. We highly recommend using Ken as your guide.

Amazing Experience!

I had a great day with Koki. Learning to Ayu fish was a blast. He also took us to see traditional cormorant fishing at night. We even got a better view than some of the people who paid to be out in boats! He made everything go smoothly throughout the whole day. Highly reccomend. This was the highlight of my trip so far.

Hi Joshua, Thank you very much wonderful comment. How did you enjoy the taste of ayu fish from Nagara River? I hope you will stay in Gifu for a week or so next time and enjoy ayu tomozuri fishing. It was a beautiful day and we were able to enjoy the cormorant fishing from the shore. We look forward to seeing you again. Koki

Akita Day Tour with Kenichi – An Unforgettable Experience

We had a truly meaningful and memorable day exploring Akita with Mr. Kenichi as our guide. He greeted us warmly at Akita Airport when we arrived from Tokyo, and after a quick introduction, we were off on our journey. Our first stop was Soegawa, just outside Akita City, where we visited the Shrine and Gardens of Our Lady of Akita. The grounds were peaceful and beautiful, with cherry trees in bloom and Mount Chōkai rising in the distance, still capped in snow. From there, we traveled to Kakunodate, sometimes called "Little Kyoto," known for its well-preserved samurai homes and rows of blooming cherry blossoms. We walked along the Hinokinai River beneath the sakura and were lucky to catch the Cherry Blossom Festival while we were there. We also enjoyed a delicious lunch in town. On our way to Lake Tazawa, we stopped to admire a field of mizubashō (Asian skunk cabbage) flowers—soft white blossoms that seemed to blanket the landscape. At Lake Tazawa, we visited local shrines and took in the natural beauty of the area, ending at the golden statue of Tatsuko, one of the region’s most iconic sights. By 5 PM, Mr. Kenichi had us back at the airport with time to spare. He was a thoughtful and knowledgeable guide who paced the day perfectly, and we’re so grateful for the experience. The memories—and the photos—are ones we’ll treasure. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Mr. Kenichi and would gladly tour with him again.
