“Lovely intro to Tokyo ”
We spent several hours covering lots of ground with our guide and enjoyed it all. Navigating the many subway stations and routes was simple with him. We saw loads of places and enjoyed it thoroughly. He has a good command of English and explained things well. He has a good sense of humour and showed much respect to the day, the temples us and all whom we interacted with. He was patient and always obliging. Thanks.

“Awesome beginning to our first trip to Tokyo Japan. ”
Yasuro was awesome he met us at the airport he was on time. Communicated with us consistently and then helped us navigate the train system, how to get a suica card. Helped to get some yen cash out and get us off to a great start. He helped us find our hotel which was not easy to find but he was very persistent.
